Tim Burton at MOMA

Many people of our generation are fa-miliar with – if not actually fans of – the bi-zarre and entertaining films of TimBurton. They know of him as the creator of The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Edward Scissorhands, and a film adaptation of the Broadway musi-cal Sweeney Todd, among other films. However, there is another side to Bur-ton’s illustrious and successful career. This year, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City held a retrospective

“His work challenges

one’s assumption of ‘art’”

exhibit which shed new light on his career. Although the exhibit does feature artifacts from Burton’s mov-ies, it was intended more to be an ex-ploration of all of Burton’s work. Tim Burton’s world is characterized by weird, macabre, colorful characters; the variety and sheer volume of his work truly speaks to his innovation and dedication as an artist. The entire exhibit is comprised of several large gal-leries, featuring everything from movie props and sculptures to quick sketch-es and large paintings. All of Burton’s work seems to be extensively and care-fully planned; for example, alongside each prop from one his movies was a group of detailed sketches and small clay models of the movie’s characters. Each piece that was on display was a radical departure from the one next to it; one would think that multiple artists had contributed to the exhibit, not just one.

The wide range of media that Burton employs to express his weird, whimsical artistic vision is truly impressive; within just a few feet one could see a quirky, motorized sculpture of a robot; animated short films, accompanied by eerie music; and small, colorful paint-ings on black velvet that resembled stained glass when illuminated with UV lamps. Before I viewed the exhibit, I didn’t understand or particularly like Tim Bur-ton’s artwork: I thought of him only as a bi-zarre filmmaker whose work didn’t match my taste. After viewing the MoMA exhibit, though, I gained a newfound appreciation for Burton’s creativity, and with this new understanding, I was able to truly enjoy his work. His work, which can be humorous, dark, or both, challenges one’s assumption of “art” and what belongs in a museum. Burton’s works are not traditional still-life paintings or marble sculptures, but they are nevertheless important contributions to the art world. The diversity of Burton’s body of work proves that he is a uniquely innovative artist with a seemingly infinite flow of ideas. His distinctive creations may be outside the confines of traditional art, but Tim Burton has certainly proved that he is an innova-tive artist who deserves our admiration.

Album artwork triggers our con-nection and our feel to music. The powerful impact of the album cover image grasps the viewer’s attention because in a sense, the artwork sets a feeling for the music. Furthermore, art and music express who we are as individuals and what our culture as a whole is interested in. We can see how our culture has evolved over the years by examining the vast art work on album covers. From the hip-pie fads of the 60s heavily influenced by the Beatles, to the “groovy” disco 70’s, to the rocking 80’s influenced by Journey, to the rocking 90’s dominat-ed by pop groups like The Backstreet Boys , to the music today; pop, rock, hip-hop, jazz… Album artwork has set the mood for the era. Album artwork captures our history in its attempt to be commercially successful. The art form began in an effort to sell more records. Unfortunately, our generation takes it for granted. When we turn on iTunes, a little image of the album artwork pops up in the corner of the screen. Sadly, the powerful album art-work is ignored. Maybe it is because our generation feels the music instead of interpreting it through the image we see.

AVANTGARdEFASHIONIt is not uncommon for people

to think of clothes as simple pieces of fabric that are used to cover their bodies. But what these people do not realize is that fashion is an art form. Someone who considers fashion as art thinks of his or her body as a blank canvas and the clothes as the paint. These artists also realize that clothing does not only refer to something that is made out of fabric.They understand that almost anything can be used to construct an outfit and if they are brave enough, they may even venture outside in such masterpieces. To some, wearing a certain outfit can be comparable to walking around with a painting from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in their arms and these are the true Fashionistas of the world. Avant-garde loosely translates to “ahead of the movement” and not being associated with the mainstream world is crucial if one plans to use unconventional materials in fashion. From papers to plants to feathers to furs, avant-garde designers have broken all boundaries of the fashion world and have re-written the rules of what is acceptable to wear in society in the process. However the designer isn’t the only one who has to be a non-conformist; the buyers and the people who wear the avant-garde garments have to be unique as well. Only a very confident person who is not afraid of what anyone else thinks can pull off wearing a piece of art and that is how certain supermodels and actresses get away with wearing such amazing creations and others do not. The same can be said for designers: only a designer with the right atti-tude can pull off making clothes out of unconventional materials and not be criticized for it.

One performer who has done a magnificent job of making a name for herself as a courageous, avant-garde style icon is Lady Gaga. Although Lady Gaga has only been considered a celebrity for about two years she has already gained world fame for her music and her fashion choices. Lady Gaga continu-ously goes out in outfits made out of human hair, see-though lace, plastic, LED lights, tape and everything else in between. And rather than being splattered across Page Six as a fashion disaster she is all over the pages of the most repu-table high fashion magazines and is regarded as the world’s newest Fashion Icon.

Coffee CreationsBy Alyssa Miller

The Girl with a Pear Earring

Coffee art has become increasingly popular in little coffee shops. People take the time to draw out little designs or pictures with cream to make a latte even more special. Karen Eland

has decided to take coffee art to a new level. Karen has taken coffee and made it her he medium of choice in-stead of watercolors or acrylic paint. Karen started taking art lessons when she was four-teen years old. Her love for coffee developed from her daily trips to Kaldi’s coffeehouse, where she would draw the people around her. One day, Karen made a connection between her art and coffee and decided to paint with it. To

further understand the art of coffee, Karen be-came a barista, but art is her full time job. Karen normally works with oils, water colors and pencils, for job related projects. Coffee art is a fun hobby that Karen uses as a “refreshing break” from the more traditional art.

The Mona Latte

By Alyssa Miller

The Mona Latte

The Creation of Coffee

Besides painting in coffee, Karen adds a new layer of complication to her hobby; she remakes classic paintings in cof-fee. Karen adds a twist and some-times tries to incorporate a cup of coffee to physically be in the painting. Karen describes the pro-cess as a “slow and sophisticated process” that requires many layers of espresso. Some of Karen’s more known creations are “The Mona Latte,” “The Girl with a Pear Ear-ring” and “The Creation of Cof-fee.To see more of Karen Eland’s work you can visit her website: coffee-art.com
