Notes on Tutorial
Chris: Look up Punctum. Ref a point in the painting/composition which completes the work/a truth.
Not sure if I can identify this myself. Is it universal or do we all read things in a different way? Will I see this as something different to another individual?

Chris: Artists to look at:
Nicolas de Staël (French: [ni.kɔ.la də stal]; January 5, 1914 – March 16, 1955) was a French painter of Russian origin known for his use of a thick impasto and his highly abstract landscape painting. He also worked with collage, illustration and textiles.
Robert Morris 🙁 February 9, 1931 – November 28, 2018) was an American sculptor, conceptual artist and writer.. He was regarded as having been one of the most prominent theorists of Minimalism along with Donald Judd but he also made important contributions to the development of performance art, land art, the Process Art movement, and installation art. Morris lived and worked in New York.
Chris; Film/Documentary to look at: ‘The Shape of the New’ – Robert Hughes (Art Historian) Andrew Graham Dickson.
