...and we're OFF!
After a crash course in the unique Blue Sky Project philosophy ("Orientation"), all the artists were extremely excited to meet the Youth Participants. Our first week together was packed with fun, including a field trip to the Dayton Art Institute and our first collaboration as a Blue Sky Family... making lunch together! I love my Youth already; we named ourselves "Team EVOL," out to save the world. Think: "evil"/love, evolution, Extra Virgin Olive oiL... ;) We will be creating our "Ideal World" together based on specific issues regarding authority & power. Think: drawing/painting, video projection and installation...
One of Team EVOL's favorite works from the Dayton Art Institute:
Hughie Lee Smith is an African American painter who was interested in the cultural displacement of minorities in post-World War 2 America. Team EVOL discussed how this subtext made this figure-in-landscape painting interesting. We thought this work simultaneously presented both utopic and dsytopic connotations.
