Week 8 (Thursday 21^st November 2013)

The other groups presented the artist that they research either from Frieze or the London trip.

The first group chose the artist Yuken Teruya who uses a wide range of materials and manipulates them to create art relating to nature, such as trees, cultures and his homeland. He focuses on globalism.

The next presentation was on the artist Jaume Plensa, who makes sculpture relating to age and nationality; he wants the world to diverse and connect. His main focus is the human figure and that no one person is defines to a country. He wants to create a connection between himself and the audience; he is inspired more by words than other artists. You interact with the piece it changes when you move round.
