Gaines has been described as "one of the first, if not the first, African American, to work in the field of conceptual art." He is interested in how one experiences art and derives meaning from it. He focuses on the internal politics that form our ideas and feelings toward art, expressed through linguistic tools such as metaphors and metonyms. http://artbabble.org/video/hammer/charles-gaines-his-studio#comments Charles Gaines Conceptual Art language sound Sound art Inspiration Contemporary Art Perception Hammer Museum http://artbabble.org/sites/default/files/bvideos/16/1696fec69d954e25/poster-image-07.jpg 1696fec69d954e25 Thu, 28 Apr 2011 21:16:32 +0000 amandacarolinelaw 8377 at http://artbabble.org
