Martha Rosler

Martha Rosler is an American artist who creates these quite, at a glance realistic, montages, but after looking at it further you can see the cleverness of how they are put together. She uses images from times when only black and white camera were used and modern photos, but the way she makes them interact is what I like about these images. There is also a mixture of of moods in the montages aswell as there is war-like scenes and models. This is a very surreal thing and it makes the images more in depth than they first appear.

Hannah Hoch

Hannah Hoch is a german artist, who's work includes these photo montages, which I think are very effective as they incorporate a varying range of objects and people that don't really create anything in particular but they are very abstract and in some cases very surreal. I like them as they are very weird and the way the different things are put together is very clever.

David Hockney

David Hockney is an English painter, print-maker, stage designer and photographer. He creates photo montages like these. He takes various photos of one place and puts them all together to create these very abstract and distorted views of one particular place. I like these very much as they incorporate art and photography. They also are very abstract and give a very different view than a normal photo of one place.

Stop Motion Animation

Stop motion animation is where individual photographs are taken of an object. In each photo the object has been moved slightly. Once all the pictures are put together the animation is very jerky and creates the effect that the object is moving. This can be very abstract as any object can be moved making stop motion animation a very arty form of animation. Sometimes clay figures are used in this animation as they can be repositioned easily and stories can be created using the models e.g. 'Morph'.
