Today’s lecture is talked about “semiotics and language.”The artist has using the particular symbols, pictures, words, or many kind of materials to represent the art work, or the warning sign to attract the people’s view. However, I like John Reynolds the most, it was one of his exhibition in Auckland Art Gallery(4 Walls, 3 Layers, 2 Marks, 1 Light) . “A twilight sense of roll call of contemporary art of performance of the last 40-50 years of the gallery,” Bob Dylan said, he was very impressed about his work showed in front of the audiences. And look through his composition, his work has reminding us the date pass, he use marker pen to write down on the wall, or the canvas, some of the word and sentence we might say, but some of words we might not be saying in front of people. Nobody can image and figure out what is the meaning that he wanted to present, and the crazy thing is that he used the same way such as “repeated art” copy his work on 7000 canvases.
In my point of view, the whole body looks quite simple and it is not an elegant art work, I thought everyone can do the same way like Reynolds did, do the line painting by using oil paint marker on the white canvas. Overall, his conceptual design and whole the frame work were quite nice, too. No matter what he present, the whole body is tidy and not complex, or mess around on his work.

Thanks Amy, although I am a bit confused. You are talking about two different works here. One is called Cloud, which has 7,000 canvases, and all the words are from a dictionary of NZ English. The other one is 4 Walls, 3 Layers, 2 Marks, 1 Light, and it it just painting on the wall. It seems like you might have mixed up the two art works in your mind. I'm also not sure what Bob Dylan has to do with it? Please explain! TX
