Sol Lewitt's wall drawing is an extrodinary piece of artwork. It was drawn by Takeshi Arita and Eileen Jeng. The art is drawn on the wall, with layers and layers of graphite.The art is entirely made of thousands of controlled scribbles. Although once you look at it, it might remind you of gradient squares. The layers are so dark that on the edges it looks black, and as you work your way to the middle it seems white even though it is a light gray. This proves that scribbles can be art.
By scribbles i mean, a random circle or line made my a pen, pencil, or marker. By art I mean something that is pleasing to the eye, something beautiful. Scribbles can be art because when they are "controlled" they can form any piece of art that the artist wants them to. By controlled I mean a scribble that has been placed stragically in a specific spot.
The evidence is Sol Lewitt's wall drawing number 1257,Scribbles. These controlled scribbles are arranged from light to dark, or dark to light. According to Eileen Jeng, one of the artists, once they got the general idea of what the drawing was supposed to look like they just added scribbles when they were needed. One might object and say that anyone can do scribbles, even a child. They are correct, but a child can not organize "random" scribbles into something that resembles a gradient square.
In conclusion Sol Lewitt's wall drawing 1257, scribbles is a perfect example oh how many ways are can take different shapes and forms.
@dulce - if you want to do it and actually claim it as a Sol LeWitt, maybe there'd be some problem if you don't get permission.
i heard about a case where somebody "covered" John Cage's famous 4'33" on an album and got in trouble for not paying royalties. of course the piece is basically silent (well, sort of), so there's no way Cage's estate could realistically claim copyright on any piece of recorded silence. however, since the person actually credited Cage as the composer, Cage's estate won the case.
but yours is an interesting question. and if he didn't execute all of his own drawings, what differentiates a "real" LeWitt executed by someone else to a "fake" made by following the same instructions?
Do you need authorization to do one of these drawings? I´d like to execute one.
I would like to see the videos
