I have decided on 3 questions to ask of all of the artists ...
1- who is the audience?
2- do they maintain similar themes/purposes?
3- What is the general media used?!?
Dr.Faustus?!? Interesting comparison. I actually worked on that show and I have to say that he was quite strange to reference that to himself. LaVerdiere dapples in a bit of media it seems, real objects, installations, and performance. The one that caught my eye the most was the light beams that he sent up from ground zero. I like the way that he made it like a performance in the fact that it was there for 2 months, also because where I am at right now, I can look at my window and see ground zero...my sister's apartment is right across the street...why couldn't I have been here for that?!? He seems to make his work for the general public, but the kind that are interested in art because I dont think that everyone would appreciate something like "safe circa" or "FATATCC". Other than experimenting with technology..I don't see a drastic common theme in the artwork here.
