Clare Johnston Lecture

Reading Tracey Emin : Fantasies of adventure,

escape and return

Gender, Identity, the body, class , otherness, motion

Why I never became a dancer - 1995, 13 left school, slept with lot of guys wanted to be a dancer, got booed and jeered off the stage.

Context + argument has to be done in critical review

film is shot on super8 film

Challenging the art establishment earlier in Emins career

-Tracey Emin + Sarah lucas at the shop, bethnal green road, london 1993, "Gone to morocco with hilton" basically taking the mick out of the art industry.

Tracey emin - my bed - art photography

She talks through the film but in the last fragment which is ironic as she has been exposed to a range of men from an early age of 13. The dance scene towards the end is the first time you see her in the film, 90% is done by narrative speaking. The dance almost celebrates what she wants to do in life and plus her light at the end of the tunnel, She wanted to dance and her audience is toward you personally.

The word slag was used into the dance competition , at her from people she has been sleeping with.

without knowing information backed up it will be impossible to know what you are talking about the critical review you need to

Alex Franklin Lecture

Theres no B'ness like no B'ness 50 cent (2003) Pimp

Considering the hiphop "ho"

From the years of "Mc Lite", "Queen Latifah" , "Salt n peppa" and "Girls from the nineties". These women had particular roles into building a hard and strong attitude towards woman and how they should go about in everyday life. In the nineties women are dressed in full, wearing trousers even baggy clothing at the time. It seems interesting at how women have been stripped from this image and now an accessory within a video, eye candy or as hip hop has developed "Ho"

Hip Hop is a multi billion dollar marketing understand of that artist aren't just promoting their album, it's also marketing consumer. Such as louis vuitton, prada,gucci etc.

The "Ho" is the most use deroicolly used term to the pimp is what makes a pimp, a power statement such as the video of Snoop Dogg is presented + Pimp 50 Cent--> "Power of the gaze"

Women made to be a disposable, desirable, to put out, to be sexy, dressing well for in this case a master the pimp.

Form + Function

Women in dog leashes, power over power from the pimps eyes, statement of they are the animal aka pet in other words to them to get treats when they do something good.

Urban consumer - Black

Busta Rhymes, Pass the conversia - consumer from the drink label was re engineered into a way that they sold lots within the year. As Busta designed a whole song based around it and he was an A-lister within this time. People were buying the brand to almost replicate the fact that they are like busta.

Cristal - 2006 - P Diddy - Racist of the fact there concept shows to be more upper class than to have a black person rap about there product

Looks as G-unit, The clothing line launch photos emulated their clothing packaged as a meth laboratory

The low camera angle shows that there the matter, king, big boss if you and that there looking down so that makes you feel like a child, a person that doesn't know you, ---> in PIMP 50 cent is wearing a t-shirt involving Scarface aka Tony Montana // Al Pacino. A powerful drug lord who raised himself up from the bottom to the top of the brink of the most highest criminal within Miami.

Young urban consumers are from 13 - 34 in age range

Robin thicke blurred line , lyrics references towards rapists. I found this very interesting that they let this one get launched live and that they were only banned in Edinburgh and another place.

Doho

su currently in the usa

Shermin Neshat - politics, religion with a photo, bring something different to the realm, she was scared of going back to the 911 situation. A new fear of acceptance towards a whole culture.

Roni hom - Pictures show a fraction of a second difference, for example womans face without shadow/ second image shows the exact same shot but the shadow appears within this sid. Interesting ways of documentation imagery

Simon Whitehead - Wales based "How do you represent something outside a gallery space"

France alys - Tornado 2000-2010, interesting to see a man almost barely visible and venturing into the worlds deadliest force. The picture shows a huge tornado/hurricane with a person standing practically yards/ meters away from it. This image shows a power statement between man and deadly force, both not to be reckoned with in a sense. Dories// salcedo, roger hiorns

introduction/Presentations

Today was an interesting to see would my peers would be in my tutor group. I reliased the high quailty and self engineered work is very high from looking at there pieces. The print work is something that Im quite interested to accomplish. I feel that the way they work is completely on their own actions, in other words they know what they want to do.

I gave my presentation and although I was bearing the heavy weight of nerves. I showed what I done within the summer holidays and most of work experience and also the dreaded "hunki mori" project.

I understand that I will have to work harder than ever before and these people in my group can push me towards the goal I want to achieve.
