Gabriel Orozco had been the most unique artist that I have seen on Art 21. It was interesting how he doesn’t have a studio and prefers not to work in one because he believes it keeps one out of reality. It isolates, that is why he works outside and photographs his curiosities, and his camera is his awareness. In the video he went shopping with his wife and to me it seems he was childlike and got distracted. This photo below is an example that.
Orozco will take everyday life things and warp then into art. In the video the modified car looked complete normal being viewed from the side and then slowly turns and a looks liked it was smashed together. It is so bizarre but could be our reality if there were individual futuristic single person cars. Another piece that he did was the four-way ping-pong table with no net and a pond in the middle. It is fun. It is game art.
