Surealm-ism Ref Paper #01

Towards a Minimalist
Phylogeny/History/Well-ordering
of
 
'mark'

We start with the blank gallery space which must exist in some 
form if "only" as a virtual space:

  

Onto that we place a blank canvas. Note that this could "merely"
be for the purposes of testing the lighting of the space, and
maybe for no other reason that we might just "want to see how 
it looks".

  

From this point on, we take as read "the gallery wall", etc.

   

So, our first thought is to put a single dot on the blank canvas like
this:
  

And we of course see this abstraction in the famous painting by
Kazimir Malevich:



"Black Square"
Oil on canvas, 53.5 x 53.5 cm
1915; Russian avant-garde

Notes
(this section only)



Brief note on representation of this web page, etc

Naturally, there is a problem with displaying *any* image on
the web (or on a web page, or describing it using the ALT 
key-word for the IMG tag in HTML for the blind, or a text
discussion, a sound fx presentation, etc)...

 START AGAIN
(but briefly)

I shall simply take it as read that "when i get a chance",
i'll convert this to JAWS (seeing-impared web reader thingie)
compatible. Funding? I would v. much enjoy working with any
intern (old or younge) on this project.

The problem is how to present these minimalist things without
destroying the space onto which they are put (which always 
happens even in the most carefull of installations), and also
(and more importantly) to display the what-ness properly.
Thus, i simply give the following as a purely visual discussion
of the problem (or at the very least a purely visual presentation
of the problem (or at .... etc):

      

Of course as with almost every instalation (except of Eva Hesse's, etc)
we as installers simply want the gallery walls to disappear and the
installation physicallity to be non-existent/ignorable.

ALSO NOTE: In order to save space, i shall use GIF formats for the
           images (except for the one above) which of course will
           reduce the image quality. These are avail in JPG or BMP 
format upon request.   email: fleeding@hotmail.com
