Denial of Perspective Georges Rousse

Denial of Perspective Georges Rousse

Stumble upon this in Exibart It’s really not that hard to do this kind of art if you think about it. Project a design onto something and trace it exactly, including the scratching areas. The concept is cool and although it would be interesting to see actual photographic art, say an image of a tiger, imagine how ugly that would seem when not in perspective. I assume he went with minimalistic abstract because it won’t hurt the eyes when not in perspective. Imagine a room full of slashes of dozens of different colours in one room. It would be a garish horror scene.

While Georges Rousse has been painting rooms in a similar fashion to Varini, his work differs in that the photograph is the end point of the work. And where Varini relies solely on the applied paint surface to achieve the illusion of flatness, Rousse employs additional architectural elements to create situations like these.

I Shot Norman Foster

The Architecture Foundation has specially commissioned six photographers from the worlds of art, fashion and journalism to create new works focused on Foster & Partner’s architecture for its forthcoming exhibition I Shot Norman Foster. This photography exhibition, at The Architecture Foundation gallery, The Yard, will challenge conventional architectural photography and capture how Foster’s projects relate to the city and the people that encounter them – not just as lone buildings.

    Currently studying Architecture in Curtin University, Western Australia. Calvin loves web designing and photography, occasionally he blogs about his thoughts and opinions.

    Every morning he refill himself with weird energy-inducing substances known as coffee and tea and then off saving the world, I mean studying and blogging of course.
