the dryer is on the left; did not have my wide angle lens with me, but will post on my next visit. "ain't painting a pain" Richard Jackson, march 2013
Richard Jackson has set the tone for much of the most important and influential art to emerge from Los Angeles for over four decades. Jackson is our Goya and Bacon combined.

Entitled " All Artists Are Liars " this is the creation of Norma Jeane and was commissioned by Liverpool Biennial 2014 .
The description on the adjoining board says - " Norma Jeane is an artist who was born in Los Angeles on the night that Marilyn Monroe died . Taking over her birth name and using this persona to contain a wide range of different personalities , the artist has become an entity without a fixed body , gender or biography . Here an ice-making machine runs on solar energy transforming heat into cold , and liquid into solid . With its door left open , the machine keeps working relentlessly , even though its product continually melts away into a wet floor . "
The painting puns on an architect who said, “I am an artist, also”. The big bench-looking thing depicted in the center of the painting is the bench-looking thing in front of the picture, and is most certainly not a bench. I found this out the hard way (as did several other members of my group, my professor, a random tourist I saw, and probably a good half of the museum’s visitors) when a guard to the side told me to get off. As best as I could tell, this was the guard's sole job. Itself, this process of sitting and being told to stand creates an odd art form which may or may not have been intended by the artist and/or museum staff.

Museu de Arte Moderna, Parque Ibirapuera, Sao Paulo, Brasil. "Maman" de Louise Joséphine Bourgeouis. Una de las famosas esculturas de Bourgeouis. ¿Sabían que hay cuatro grupos de Flickr exclusivamente sobre estas esculturas y la obra de esta artista francesa?, el grupo más grande (MAMAN) tiene a la fecha más de 1300 imágenes de estas obras de diferentes museos del mundo y más de 600 miembros. Es indudablemente una de las obras de arte moderno más fotogénicas.
The Big Wheel (Chris Burden, 1979) is a kinetic sculpture that uses a motorcycle's spinning rear tire to set a massive flywheel in motion. The Big Wheel was part of a retrospective show called "Collection: MOCA's First Thirty Years."
*The set depicts the daily lives of the people living in this multi cultural community and is the inspiration for this illustrated book which when completed will be self published. As most of my works it was produced while listening to the original recording of same title. It can be heard and seen with a short video on You Tube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZA9DEHaOLqQ&feature=fvsr
The set is best viewed on black.
Architect: Tabanlioglu, 2004
'The first modern museum of the country, Istanbul Modern, transformed from an abandoned warehouse, is considered as an extension of the public area. Interaction between the visitors, surroundings, exhibited work and the building is aimed to be highest. Minimum inteference has been the architectural approach; the existing structural essence is preserved, simplicity is preferred to emphasize the exhibited artwork to stand out. '
