Home is where the Art is.

I went to get some dvds out the other day, 'House' by RW, and I came across and interesting one, bbc 2's 1999 art series, an episode by the name of 'Home is where the Art is' where a group of artists (Anish Kaapor, Richard Wentworth, Tony Cragg, Anthony Gormley and others...) were asked to create a series of pieces, working together with 'Homebase' inspired by homes of families they went to see.

Interesting points

-Artists were concerned with the mass produced aspect of their pieces

-Anish Kaapors work considers spatial awareness and so his piece had to be perfect (a lamp) to set the right feeling.

-Richard Wentworth thought about traces..

-Anthony Gormley commented he wanted his 'coat pegs' to support life rather than confront life, unlike a lot of his sculptures. Coat pegs are to be seen as an image of ourselves, he responded to the environment 

'What happens in that place?' I question to my surroundings...
