Charles Atlas Research Paper
I don’t believe Charles Atlas’ work defamilarizes us the viewers. I just believe that he takes basic things that happens and turns them into something spectacular. Tornados happen in everyday all over the world. It’s nothing that we haven’t already seen or been exposed to. The news shows it us everyday. Also with his piece “Teach” where Leigh Bowery has his cheeks pierced as well as lip synchs doesn’t do too much defamiliarizing either. Although I liked the piece very much it’s not anything out of the ordinary. People pierce any and everything know a days to where it’s the same thing different day someone else just reinventing it. Atlas did no more then removes the Vail of a mystery that I was already in fact familiar with.
It makes you feel at peace with yourself you can recognize evolution. Your taking a basic past concept that you’ve actually had the opportunity to realize the evolution that has actually happened. You can it helps to see things that are constantly changing. People change with time, time changes with the evolution. So something that something odd then becomes something so ordinary that there’s recognition in which his envision evolve.
