Bayougal65 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I am not sure where to put this or even what I think. It is a bit unsettling, but that is the nature of art. http://hyperallergic.com/95827/sculptural-remnants-and-re-creations-of-jimmy-page/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I think it's terrific. Yes, it's a little unnerving but it's also creative and shows a sense of imagination and flair. I can't wait to share this with my friends. By the way, wasn't Lloyd Dobler the name of John Cusack's character in "Say Anything"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayougal65 Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 By the way, wasn't Lloyd Dobler the name of John Cusack's character in "Say Anything"? Yes!!!! Love it!!! Great catch, Strider! The gallery's website won't open for me, I will have to look later. They do have a FB page. I think the best art provokes a reaction, love it or hate it. I have a feeling Mr. Page would find this exhibit very intriguing, I hope he hears of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aen27 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Thanks bayougal65! I hope Jimmy does hear of this. Its intriguing AND unsettling! I loved them. They are so different. Thank you for sharing this here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireOpal Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) Why are her sculptures always seated? Also, Jimmy is very English - one usually doesn't think of him sitting sprawled on the floor, with sneakers on no less, hands between his legs. That's an American posture. Oh there I go crabbing again. I'm not a great fan of modern art; most of what I've seen looks like it was done by a mentally disturbed child.

FireOpal Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Ah yes, that's a representation of traditional masculinity under assault by the post-industrial influences of feminism and the automated workplace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

60blues Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Zoso sweater Jimmy bears a striking resemblance to Frank Zappa imo..... Well......it`s definitely interesting and thought provoking....to say the least..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortilla Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The last sculpture in the group picture of them looks sort of like a garbage bag. I wonder what Jimmy's reaction would be if he saw these... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cecil. Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Zoso sweater Jimmy bears a striking resemblance to Frank Zappa imo..... Well......it`s definitely interesting and thought provoking....to say the least..... Well, it is certainly giving me thoughts of trying to sell the contents of my dustbin to the artist for their next work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth and beauty Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Well, it is certainly giving me thoughts of trying to sell the contents of my dustbin to the artist for their next work. Ha ha ... but why rely on that artist ? ....( goes to own dustbin and attempts to conjure all 4 Zep members from food waste and old newspapers ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Duck Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 At first I thought JP had taken up sculpture and was having an exhibition of his work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie gwen Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I am not amused, or anything. Nope, not a fan of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nirvana Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 OMG to even dare associate Jimmy's name with this crap called "sculpture" is boarding on criminal or at a minimum - insane. Let's call it what it really is - a piece of drug-induced shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth and beauty Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Still loving them. They're inventive and funny. I hope they tour in the UK and that Jimmy is invited to the preview ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
