Krátky popis
This book reveals how all kinds of visual artists (contemporary
artists, street artists, photographers and even product designers)
are using miniatures and miniaturized worlds in order to create
startling situations and memorable images. Miniatures and
miniaturized settings induce a disquieting experience of distance,
and artists use it to explore very contemporary feelings of
alienation, displacement and estrangement. But if seeing things
from a great distance can make you feel cut off from them, and make
you feel lonely and insignificant, it can also encourage awe and
contemplation. The miniaturized strategy plays many tricks with the
viewer. It generates distance not just in terms of space, but also
in terms of time. Miniatures make us relive the world (and the
viewpoint, the perspective) of our childhood, a time when the world
was filled with toys and figurines. 'Miniaturized' does not
necessarily mean 'idealized'. Shrinking a particular scene only
seems to increase its pathos, introducing a haunting atmosphere of
theatrical drama. Miniaturized worlds seethe with narrative
potential, intricate story lines, suspense: car crashes, hunting
accidents, walks in the woods, a mugging in the snow, a father and
a son mowing the lawn, nativity scenes. The small people and small
worlds depicted in this book give us a new sense of perspective,
transporting us to a new dimension, an enchanted new city where
people can take lifts on the back of a slug at rush hour, put up
wall-sized polaroid posters, or shoot down bumblebees at the
weekend.
