reproduction
Today’s manufacture will copy or reproduce art work in a bad quality or massive quantity. It improve the influence of some great art works, but there are some negative influences in time:
- overexposure
- decrease potential value because of the massive copies
- change the attitude of visitor For more example of reproduction, many of art works have been displayed on Web, App, sorts of media and screen.
required commercial value
Museum or gallery announce them through reproduce classical works, it indeed in work, attract more viewer / gain more profit in sub-production. So they can have more opportunities
to protect arts.
infinite reproduce, infinite misunderstanding
As a significant count of reproduction have been made in market, audiences have a high cognition to some classical art work. In the time, they will have different attitude to these sub-production as well as paintings. In today’s workshop, my peers created some experiments to express the process of misunderstanding and distortion.
repeat photocopy
Photocopy a painting with 10 times, what does it look like? Digitally, pixel will increase, so it will lose details and sharpness. Furthermore, the colours will change to be more bright which have higher saturation. Fine lines will become bolder and look as if they’ve been engrave , because of lines look like rise up, and generate bigger contrast with background, so it has an engrave-alike texture.
de-adjective
People generally describe and understand object through read adjective. A peer removed most adjectives in a text which describe the girl with pearl earring. Then she found it look as if it is describing Mona Lisa. It shows the influence of second-hand cognition, people will easily change the attitude because of different descriptions. So I thought we can see something in different angle, a general sight and illustratively.
