Dia:Beacon...WORK AS ACTION

These are some of the materials that let you become art from the Franz Erhard Walter gallery

This is the the the Franz Erhard Walter gallery at Dia: Beacon

Friday, July 8,2011 the TURN IT UP TEAM went to Dia:Beacon art gallery. We saw many wonderful peices of art, but the one that stuck out the most was by Franz Erhard Walther.With Walther's peice we didn't look at the art,WE WERE THE ART!!!!!!! When the TURN IT UP TEAM went into the room the walls were white with pictures of how people became the art. The floor was wood ,but in the middle of the floor it was a huge blue carpet.On the bottom of the walls there were ledges with the material that you would used to become the art.Six people from the TURN IT UP TEAM took their shoes off and became art. We used the piece With Direction(Six). While we were in it we decieded to move around . We tried rolling over , walking, and then finally jumping. When we tried jumping we ended up falling over.It was so funny everyone started laughing.
