I work in series that contextualize the serious with the frivolous. I depict bubble gum painted over images removed in Part 4: Chapter 4 of the text, "Janson's History of Art (1966)." The painted bubble gum masks a prominent part of the composition (the primary focal point, or a secondary or tertiary one) to hint at a transformation-from black and white to color, appropriation to original, high to low, masking to potential, and serious to whimsy. They are arranged as they were in the textbook, grouped by chapter and organized as originally presented. They are matted to mask the written text while showing the image in its original page location. I use this contradiction to relate to how we teach and view art history. While many contemporary artists have critiqued the way western art history has been presented, some have taken those thoughts a step further. I am one such artist.
