Lecture Reverend Ethan Acres
REVEREND ETHEN ACRES
Reverend Ethan Acres is not your ordinary preacher. He has sermonizes and preaches in a chapel to his audience. Ethan Acres sermonizes are spoken through his creative artwork. Reverend Acres began preaching at the tender age of ten, when he stood on the street corners and gathered people to attend the revival meetings conducted by his preacher stepfather. His interest to art came across the same time. He is known as a reverend, an artist, and an entertainer. Acres uplift the spirits of his world weary congregants. Its remarkable how this Reverend can express his love for GOD visually and physically into his artwork and illustrate at sermonizes to the audience. Typically a Sunday morning we head to church, we sit and sing, and listen to the gospel words of the bible from a pastor. Some people seem to not understand the bible nor find it appealing. Is different with Acres because he does a lot more than just speak the word of god, he intentionally imitates the scriptures and makes art out of them. The use of Acres master piece is to make the sermon fun and understanding having something illustrated. Acres believe that the Devil represents universal sins such as stealing, adultery, and greed. The personal demons would represent eccentric sins. In Reverend Acres prior to his artwork he hopes that people will be moved to accept hid God. As he interprets the bible and puts in play to art, I wouldn’t understand why some would disagree that what he does wouldn’t be considered art.

Are you better at visualizing people than objects? Or worse?
What seems to be mentally different?
I think that I visualize objects and people about the same, because once I point out something or write it down I can see it. Mentally I believe if Im looking at the word I know what it is by seeing it.
Are you better at two-dimensional objects than three-dimensional? How so?
I am better at 2D objects because I can easily remember things I see everyday compare to things I used to see or once seen.
Where do you see your image?
I see the image leaving my bedroom and heading out with my phone by my side and a water bottle for the ride in my car and heading to the zoo watch the animals and all that surrounds it.
Is it out in front of your eyes or back in your skull somewhere or somewhere else?
I see it in the back of my head and moving forward to the front
What is brought to bear in these instances is a keen sensitivity to a non-modular perceptivity of sense-data. Why might this be important in your field?
Keeping the image at the back of my head I start to feel the sense of smell that the animals at the zoo have. The smell of nature.

Researching
Minimal art is characterized by its simplicity in both form and content, where personal expression is removed in order to achieve this. The intention of minimalist artists is to allow the audience to view a composition more intensely because the distractions of theme etc. have been removed.
Post-Minimalism which indicates the coinstantaneous developments of the time, including process art, earthworks, conceptual art, performance, and installations. Postminimalism, as well as minimalism, seems to correspond to the turning point from modemism to postmodernism, and therefore, seems to be one of the important clues, when we consider the argument about art and sites, such as current installations and public art. Postminimalism refers specifically to artists whom utilise Minimalism either as an aesthetic or conceptual reference point from which to develop.
Process art is an American art form. A process is temporally and materially the course of an event, thus in Process art, the process of manufacture becomes the relinquishing of the creative act.
Arte Povera is a style of modern art. The term was introduced in Italy during the period of upheaval at the end of the 1960s, when artists were taking a radical stance.
Collage is paste-up made by sticking together pieces of paper or photographs to form an artistic image
Assemblage is an artistic process in which a three-dimensional
artistic composition is made from putting together found objects.
