Juxtaposition In Art
Simply stated, juxtaposition means
things side-by-side. In art this usually
is done with the intention of bringing
out a specific quality or creating an
effect, particularly when two
contrasting or opposing elements are
used.
“Amsterdam Dummy” Ofer Halevi
“Figure Study” Ofer Halevi
David Ellis
General Mills Corporate HQ
Golden Valley, MN
The desire for this 35 acre setting was to
create the illusion that the new buildings
were floating within the landscape atop a
motionless plane of water. The design
created a crisp, clean and organic canvas
for the corporation's sculpture collection
that was a natural extension of the existing
outdoor gallery.
MC Escher
Progressive Rhythm
Renee Magritte….a meticulous, skillful technician,
he is noted for works that contain an extraordinary
juxtaposition of ordinary objects or an unusual
context that gives new meaning to familiar things.
Surrealism and juxtaposition art
plays with scale and emphasis,
making the relationship between
objects unusual and out of
normal scale.
Juxtaposition and Progressive
Rhythm
• Create a work of art related to an unusual
juxtaposition. Consider concepts and
items that normally wouldn’t be seen
together.
• Show an understanding of rhythm by
showing repetition and progression.
• Progression is like metamorphosis. Think
gradual change.
Joseph Cornell
Cornell spent most of his life in a frame
house on Utopia Parkway in Queens, New
York, with his mother and his crippled
brother, Robert. From there this reclusive,
gray, long-beaked man would sally forth on
small voyages of discovery, scavenging for
relics of the past in New York junk shops
and flea markets.
To others, these deposits might be refuse, but
to Cornell they were the strata of repressed
memory, a jumble of elements waiting to be
grafted and mated to one another.
In the studio he would sort his finds into their
eccentric categories - 'Spiders,' 'Moons,' and
so forth - and file them with boxes of his own
mementos.
