T:mac Art Show Review 2009
T:mac Art Show Review 2009
The t:mac Art Show 09 was indeed spellbinding. It offered a unique and immense collection of stunning, classic artwork, including fine art textiles, 3D studies, photography and graphic design, all spanning a wide variety of completely original wonderful ideas, produced by GCSE and A level students.
Photography was a key element infused in almost all the visual masterpieces on display, and could be seen besides some of the drawings as a valuable and fascinating insight into the making of these brilliant, almost exact copies.
Of course, not everybody would fully appreciate all the artwork on show, but I must insist that there was ultimately a section for everyone. No one could pass by the exhibits and not stop or pause momentarily, to gaze engagingly towards at least one piece of artwork, all the exhibits being on show daily from 9am-5pm. for public viewing, from 23-25 September.
I must say, that I personally was impressed with most of the artwork on show as it was all designed with a strong creative instinct, bursting with tons of thoughtful ideas. Some particularly arty and well-dictated comic strip ideas, fixated on communism in Russia, caught my attention straight away as they honestly looked exactly like something you would buy from a comic book store!
Exact copies of human faces from photographs amazed me instantly, for the detail was perfect, and instantly recognisable, this being a gift possessed by truly talented artists to be admired by future generations. Much better than all this new fangled modern art in my opinion, but thankfully not much of that was presented.
Sea life, featuring crabs and intricate looking shells were also shown, as well as copies of roller coasters and theme park rides. These only further helped to impress me as I wandered round the vast and intense collection of artwork.
I was amazed, astonished and awestruck by the quality of all the work on show. Congratulations to all the students involved and I can’t wait to see the t:mac Art Show 2010!
