A different take about how some of the best art changes with time. I'm compiling the best art I can find on tumblr into one place.
Last week I shot a roll of film that I’d got free with a second hand camera. When I got back the scans I found out that the roll had already been used by the guy who gave me it and so I had double exposed it. By chance, both of us had taken a photo of a motorway landscape and this was made. His photo is from the inside of the car looking at countryside and my shot of an urban motorway is best seen on the left hand side.
The Morning GIF: Anatol Knotek’s “Just in Time”
Actions speak louder than words, and words in action louder still. Austrian Anatol Knotek describes himself as a visual poet and artist, and in his work he gives the normally static the power of movement. The result is both humorously literal and engagingly vital.
“the daily dot” published an interview with me: http://www.dailydot.com/culture/morning-gif-anatol-knotek-just-time-interview/
“In the late seventies, a young white poet, wrote a song entitled, "Rock n’ Roll Nigger”. She felt she could liken her personal trials as a feminist musician in a cock rock culture to the African American struggle for equality. The lyrics go on to say “outside of society that is where I want to be”. This is dedicated to every black kid who has ever been called a nigger…and every white kid who thinks they know what that means…”
i usually don’t like gif sets, but this is worth it
