To start off the month we have received the following four pictures from Sarah Gineau Delyon. I'll let her explain: "Hello. Please find attached our pictures from Abbey Road taken in December 2014. We are French and we are participating in an international art project called 'CROSS THE SCAN'. It is taking place on Abbey Road...... |
|
| ..........It is a project combining photographs and street art.............. |
|
| ..................we are going to scan the crosswalk this week end (on the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th April). Let me explain to you. We are going to run the scanner across the ground, to create some photographic stripes of 10 meters long. It is a monumental work............... |
|
| ..............Scanning is the main tools of the French artists 'Les Nivaux' - the creators of the project. They are looking for a new photographic sight. They use a scanner as a camera. Scanned images are deeper than photographs. Volumes, details, colours and materials are more enhanced in a scan. It adds an unique touch and dimension to the photographic image with a specific light. Before they used to scan the world.. They scanned women's hands in Africa, Roswell's floor, Route 66 and the Golden Gate Bridge in the US..The scanner becomes a philosophy art and it will never leave them! In October they will print the scanned work of Abbey Road and send it to several countries - Japan, USA, Italy, Argentina etc.. The aim of the project is to stick the print on the floor in the front of the most famous Centers of Arts from everywhere. It is a participation project. We invite people to participate to the sticking down of the image. Thank you" |
