Blog-6 Post Modern

Theme: Post Modern Art, large and unusal.

First artist is Maya Lin: Maya Lin was born in Ohio on October 5th 1959. She grew up in the United States and studied both art and archietecture, and her artwork easily portrays this backgound. She mostly known for designing the Vietnam Veterians Memorial which she complete when she was only 21 years old. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_Lin) I have chosen her art because it easily fits in my category large and unual art.

The second artist which I selected is actually two, a husband and wife team, Christos and Jean Claude. Both were born on the same day in 1935, June 13 and were married in October of 1958. They have produced numerous works which all fall into the environmental category. Their work is know to be controversial because of its size, which makes it a good fit for large and usual art.
