Big Art

Big Art


What is it with Big Art?  What is so compelling and exciting about seeing an idea wrought in an over-sized image?
Sean Scully

Cy Twonbly

Robert Motherwell

I mean, Sean Scully does STRIPES.  Lots of stripes.  BIG stripes.  They are gorgeous.  How much of the impact of those images has to do with scale?  Ditto Cy Twomblys vast canvases of scribbles and marks?  Why is it so exciting to see Motherwell painting with a long brush from a standing position?

Just my thought for the day.  I welcome your comments an insights.
