The artist's role as collector of memory and selfThomas, Lee Ann 11 1900 (has links)
Artworks that use found or appropriated images and objects
often function as collections. These collections simulate the
everyday collections of mementos and souvenirs that come to
represent aspects of an individual's personality and past. The
collections of objects mirror the individual's collection of memories
that help to define himself and provide a means of communication
with others. The artist as collector takes on roles similar to that of
storyteller and anthropologist, providing a narrative of conscious
preservation. Through various devices of display and denial a
curiosity cabinet I Wunderkammer representing and simulating a
Self is created and the role of collector is passed on to the viewer. / Art History, Visual Arts and Musicology / Thesis (M.A. (Art History))
