This attention to differences in textures and materials has a substantial genealogy. It is precisely what the Dutch and Spanish still life artists concerned themselves with. Helluva challenge for a painter, and a real chance to show off. Google those terms and you will see paintings depicting glass, bread, fish, wax, copper etc etc.
Speaking of which, I would have preferred 'the artist who paints...' to 'the artist who does.. '. Less ambiguous.
- Someone 6y agoAs far as I can tell, these are photographs, not paintings.
- StavrosK 6y agoPlus it does say they're photos in the article.
- jb1991 6y agoNot sure why you were getting downvoted, maybe people are not reading the article. It clearly talks about them photographing these poles, and in one sentence the artist discusses using the iPhone to do it.
- Daub 6y agoYeh I see that now. My bad. I should have corrected. But I believe my point still stands... artists paint, photograph, sculpt etc. They don't just 'do'.
