isolated color

this image is an example of many images that display isolated colors surrounded by an either sepia or b/w background. what draws me to these types of images is because of the effect of the colors. for me, that effect is channeling the focus of the image to a specific point and creating the whole image more profound or more likely to stimulate an emotional response.

keep it simple

i selected these images because i like the simplicity.  while i'm not sure what ewing was going for with his bald man, it's pretty obvious with the advertising that promotes reading.

political humor

this image is from a 2007 NYC exhibit titled 'Line Up" where artists nora ligorano & marshall reese depicted the Bush administration as criminals in a response to the war in Iraq. i chose this image because, for me, it is effectively humorous and clearly stating the artists political position of their subject simultaneously.
