Disregarding how disturbing this image is the detail is incredible. It looks like a photograph. the detail of cloth and the lighting on the faces is flawless. The colors also evoke a lot of emotion. It is a mix between beauty and gore. One cant seem to know what to look at first, the scene the art portrays or the detail and perfection of the lighting, people, and the surroundings.
John Baldessari has a way with mixing photos with witty and creative solid images. He plays with color, shapes, and other photos to create artwork that makes you think, laugh, and feel. This piece of artwork is a great example of his photography mixed with a witty yet unsettling image.
