Assignment: Tinguely staged event for spectators to behold. Morales is not content with mere observation. He demands participation. Sometimes he allows the audience to decide if they want to interact with his works; sometimes their proximity compels participation. Find examples of specific artworks by Tinguely, Morales, or other artists that exemplify the audience's relationships with: a static, harmless art object, an active, harmless art object, and active, dangerous art object, an art object that invites participation, an art object that imposes participation.
I was intrigued by the work that Arnaldo Morales has created, and was interested to see what other types of work were out that were meant to engage the audience with the artwork. When I began researching artists who exemplified a relationship between the audience and their artwork, I found an artist who's artwork intrigued me. Paul Weidmer works with fire and iron as the basis for most of his project. He does sculptures that are both interactive and non interactive. I was most interested in the pieces I will display below that incorporate fire and iron together. I feel that these pieces are really engaging and interesting. They show how his mind is working and he executes his projects well.
