The work of MATTHEW BARNEY and other images

Matthew Barney (born March 25, 1967) is an American artist who works in sculpture, photography, drawing and film. I think these examples of his work relate visually to some aspects of Dracula. http://www.cremaster.net/


















































1) View for the air from this website of Pir Pangal Range near India.
2) Temple and Enclosure of Marttand or the Sun, near Bhawan in Kashmir A.D. 490-555. I like this, thought it rather tomb-like. (Found imagery for Dracula- reproduced in Henry Hardy Cole's Archaeological Survey of India Report 'Illustrations of Ancient Buildings in Kashmir.' 1869).

Edward Burtynsky: WA Mines

These photographs are by Edward Burtynsky. His work examins the excavation the ground and of the human. There is something slightly apocalyptic about them and its interesting how he makes them show the effects of industry, demand and commerce. I have included some of his photographs of mines in Western Australia. These photographs are stunning but the aggressive nature of industry is evident.











Also have a look at this website/blog about industry and sustainability http://www.worldchanging.com/

Biteproof issue 2: CYBERNETICS, DIANETICS AND A HYPODERMIC OF MUTANT GENETICS

Biteproof is an independent publication where the title of each issue is the running theme. It is a compilation of contributions created by a variety of artists illustrating the title. Only sections (or crops) of work as part of the contributors obligatory terms and conditions of participation are allowed to be published on line (rights remain those of the artist). Therefor the only way to see the whole is by purchasing the book. A response to promoting the genuine purchase of art publications and to advocate the aesthetics of physical ownership by democratizing the purchase of artbooks through affordability.

EIS: Extreme Ice Survey

These animations are compiled by EIS (Extreme Ice Survey) the most the most wide-ranging glacier study ever conducted using ground-based, real-time photography. They illustrate changes in geological time that we can actually witness and highlight the reality of the effects of climate change. Its quite shocking and quite stunning and quite difficult to forget.
