Art Post Art - A Trip to the Gallery

I haven't before been to the gallery with the intention of seeking a response.. it made me spend more time really looking at each work and I think I will approach galleries like this from now on! An image reveals over time and the longer I spent with one work the more ideas started flowing and its almost as if a dialogue between your thoughts and the work open up!

There were three works in particular that stood out to me.


Ian North - The Wave, 2004

The Wave, 2004




Bill Henson
Photographs
Untitled


Untitled #122
Untitled (CL SH 686 NZ6)

These two photographic works were shown in different rooms, the top image was shown in the seduction room. It's contemporary presence stood out among a sense of classical paintings, It is the light in these images that draws me in, I find them both very seductive and melty. I love the bottom image, it is just epic.

I love all of these, I find them all very alluring but I will go with the Ian North painting as I found myself in it.
