So here is something that doesn't really intrigue me, Manuel Vason is a photographer/ performance artist who is interested in the human body expression. For a while now I've had trouble understanding performance art, to be fair I think I just may not understand the meaning or perhaps I get it but I don't like the message it is portraying. Most of the time I would say I have absolutely no idea what is trying to be said with the performance. I think my problem with Vason's pieces are that they seem more like self mutilation for the sake of art than a "human body expression". I may be wrong, so like an artist once told me... if you don't like it ask yourself why you don't like it and give it another chance... maybe i'll just have to keep in touch with his images in order to fully understand... and if i don't like it then... then that is it!
I do like his use of color in these two.
