Vik Muniz works with the syntax of photography, but his images are not simply photographic. As Vince Aletti has pointed out in the Village Voice, Muniz has teased the medium mercilessly and with an infectious glee. He makes pictures of picturessly, punning documents that subvert photography by forcing it to record not the natural world but a fiction, a simulation. Munizs pictures are illusions that draw from the language of visual culture, but they twist and redefine our perception to both the commonplace and the fantastic. Munizs images humorously, as well as critically, challenge our abilities to discern fact from fiction, reality from illusion. Utilizing a panoply of unorthodox materialsgranulated sugar, tomato sauce, chocolate syrup, a 16,000-yard piece of sewing thread, and soilMuniz first creates an image, sculpturally manipulates it, then photographs it. Whether a portrait, a landscape, or an iconic image from history, Munizs images are never what! they seem. This book, the artist s first monograph, is produced in conjunction with Muniz’s one-person exhibition at the International Center of Photography in New York, opening September 1998.

Vik Muniz - Using Media Creatively

Title: “Soccer Ball”

Material: Ink Jet Print

Dimensions: 68.3 x 50 cm

The artwork that caught my attention was the wire art.   Vik Muniz is creating art from art by taking photographs of wire sculptures and turning it into a completely different media. “Soccer Ball” caught my eye because soccer is a big passion of mine.  My initial thought of the picture is that it is simple, clean, and clear. The art from the wires are line drawings that I see daily in everyday life.  Vik Muniz creates levels of thickness with the wires to form shadows that will highlight the soccer ball.  The line above the ball gives the illusion that the ball is sitting on a field.  Transforming 3D objects into 2D by using wires gives the opportunity to compare the image between the picture as an image and as a picture form.
