The video here has to be seen in full in order to understand what is happening. Inspired by a video of real highway that went on for hours, the artist here created the same style of video using a wheel mechanism and mounting a camera to it. I suppose it's up to the observer to interpret the piece, but I just appreciated the creativity of the design.
Liberty Weeps is a piece that was just completed this year on the campus of the university. Standing next to it, one can feel the great size of the structure, which was puzzled together from geometrically-cut sections of carboard.
These were the two pieces of art I was most tempted to touch, but of course, that is against the etiquette of art aficionados, so I restrained myself. | |
Thankfully, however, Liberty still stands, and there is still hope to find our way back to moral center. There is no reason to stop trying to achieve peace and liberty for all mankind and we appreciate life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the United States of America.
