| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: I want to present the tradition of architectural genre of "movie palaces" which boast luxurious designs on splendid facades. The multicolored neon lights add a dynamic effect to the modeling exterior space of the already luxurious existing architecture. The construction of these designs symbolizes the energy and vitality of modern life, and my photographs are designed to celebrate that notion. I have chosen to display this form of modern entertainment on the medium of canvas to borrow the sense of textural surface which belonged to a more antiquity side. I hope this duality will allow the audience to appreciate the rich history and development of movie theaters in American society and culture. The brightly lit marquis and glamour of the theater has long attracted the younger generation with its grandeur. The softer and textural appearance of the canvas surface does not sacrifice the vibrancy and luminance of colors and light, yet brings a calmer and quieter atmosphere that older generations look for and appreciate. The juxtaposition of the old and new, bright sharp and soft emphasizes the beauty and character of each individual theater. | |
