Language Conversion Relationship Between The Visual Experience Of Contemporary Art

The visual experience of the 21th century has revolutionized the way of how people see the world,expecially revolutionized how artists see and reflect to this contemporary world.For instense,the rapid development of photography and digital media has compleltely changed how artists make and see their works.Thus, as a painter myself,based on the interest and a series of research on the visual experience of the 21th century,in the article I stressed on the relationship between documentary films and painting,and the relationship between documentary photography and painting. Also, based on the affect from the digital media technology, how the internet,or cyber visual experience affect artist's perspective and works was addressed in the thesis as well.In my thesis works,lots of degraded snapshots and screenshots taken from the internet were used. Artists such as Luc Tuymans and Gehard Richter was discussed in order to talk about the relation between these different approaches--how these artists use these reference to make their own art works. I'm highly interested in the degraded images which are transferred from the film language into the digital language, and what I've been trying to achieve is to transfer this into a painting language. The reason I'm interested in painting movies stills and documentary photographs is that they are somehow related very closely no matter from a historical point or aesthetic point, my paintings are like a poetic homage to these traditional media and information,to these history.I hope it'll make the audience to look at these translated history and images in a total different angle.
