Nam June Paik - Electronic Superhighway
The reason why I choose this art piece by Nam June Paik is I like composition of his art piece, the bright neon lights immediately attract my eye to his piece, and makes me reminisce about my road trips across the US. I have done East Coast to West Coast road trip and the neon lights remind me of the hotel lights after a long day of driving. It was a refuge and a welcome sight. Just like Electronic Superhighway. Also I like the use of bight colors in any medium.
Wolf Vostell - E.d.H.R 1968
This piece by Wolf Vostell is a piece I choose because it shows me an interesting point of view about television that I couldn't have other wise seen if it wasn't for this piece. This art piece makes you feel uncomfortable and unsettled. Which television does the opposite. I guess if we weren't so use to television it might make us feel uncomfortable and unsettled. But it is part of our daily lives in the US.
