Cy Twombly was an admired abstract artist whose work included random scribbles and marks. His work was improvised. I chose to read this section as part of my 3D works hold an abstract, improvised and automatic style much like Twombly’s.

Alfred Otto Wolfgang Schulz Wols was a German/French artist that worked with oils, watercolours and drawing. He was an unhappy person that struggled with mental health. He was a victim to political and social issues. He spent his time making art and drinking. He mainly made small scale works using his favourite mediums by pouring, smearing, spraying, and scratching the materials onto the surface. Wols persisted and pioneered a new style of expression abstraction.
Page 334-335
Jackson Pollock was an American abstract artist that worked with oils, enamels, and mixed media. He was a pioneering abstract artist and a painter of the New York School who was nicknamed “Jack the Dripper”. He had problems with alcohol. Pollock's work was best when large scale as it showed his passion, heroic, and monumental way of working. He would place the canvas on the floor and would and would stand in the middle with a can of paint. Pollock's layers of marks would show rhythm and flow.

Visual Punk art is any art associated with the punk subculture. It has heavy roots in Dada art, which used humor and collage as a way to critique the state of society. Punk art is mostly used by groups of marginalized people to fight against the political and social status quo. They appropriate text and images from different sources to create eyecatching compositions. The goal of this artwork is to be seen by the masses. They utilized a do-it-yourself method of cutting, pasting, and printing to create art they could spread without having to deal with the constraints of any publishing corporations, they could be completely uncensored.
When looking through my archive, I was inspired by the posters I had collected, specifically, the punk posters used to advertise things like concerts and albums. I thought It would be interesting to combine the aesthetics of the visual punk style with some of the other artworks I have in my archive. I took artworks from the artists Edvard Munch, Alfred Otto Wolfgang Schulze, and Grete stern and put them into a cut and paste composition. A lot of these punk posters are advertisements, Whether they are telling viewers to come to a show, to come to a bar, or even just to support the cause. I thought it would be really interesting to see what It would look like if these artists, from before the creation of visual punk, were to advertise their artwork in this punk kind of style. Alfred Otto Wolfgang Schulze was an abstract expressionist and Grete Stern was a Surrealist and Edvard Munch was an expressionist. All of these art movements had to do with creating art from emotion. I feel like the anger of the punk movement could really fit into their practices and all three of these artists would have embraced the punk ideology.
When you think about the creation of art movements, it is almost always the case that these young artists are rebelling against the older generations that have come before them. That in itself is super punk and I feel like that is the reason that we are able to make so many connections through artworks all across time. I believe that art has almost always been about rebellion and the creation of something new. Whether it be in a painting from the 1890s or photographs from the 1930s and 1950s. Even as college students studying in 2022 we are connected to even the earliest of artists and I feel that's what makes art so special
