Harvey Benge: Jeff Wall - what I love about art

Thursday, December 20, 2012

Art affects life but we don't know how, Jeff Wall's take on art expressed in under a minute and worth a look HERE.

Harvey's Blog: Paris and Auckland; My pictures explore the strange anthropology of cities. The unusual and overlooked in the human landscape. I am asking the viewer to question the idea that photographs as documents are complete representations of subject. I'm interested in the universality of life and the idea of parallel lives - when one thing is happening here, something else is happening over there. The democracy of non-places fascinates me, in the knowledge that inevitably nothing is as it seems. I work and live between Auckland and Paris. http://harveybenge.com/ email:harvey.benge@xtra.co.nz
