Minimalism group

I have finally killed two birds with one stone .....that is written a journal entry and also set up a group (yippiee).

Groups was a feature I felt RedBubble needed. A cool way to group similar work together from various artists. When it finally did arrive I had no time to set one up until now.

I can not wait to see the minimalist art that fellow Red bubble artists will add to this group. I also encourage interaction by all available means, so this group can be both a showcase of minimalist art as well as a place where people can discuss various topics regarding this genre.

Some simple standard guidelines:
# One upload a day only.
# Don’t critique an art piece unless explicitly stated by the artist that they want critique.
# Any questions/suggestions, Bubblemail me (I love getting Bubblemail).

Cheers and have fun,

Mike

oooooo…..I like this group! Good idea. You might want to scoot an email to RB to have them link this journal entry to the site for guidelines. Didn’t see it until after I posted 2 images at once. I did remove one though.

Can’t wait to see the others!

Hi David,

Thanks for joining, also no problems regarding the two images. I will get RB to link to this page and make it easier for people to understand the guidelines.

Hi Barbara – thanks I hope we can collect some great minimalist work….

Just a quick welcome to all the new members :-) Thank you for joining and I can’t wait to see you minimalist art.

Also a few housekeeping notes:
1. Please don’t flood the group. One image a day please. This gives a chance for everyones work to be featured on the front page and also be viewed by other members. I have deleted a few images from members who have uploaded more than one image.
2. Also consider the nature of the group minimalist. I have seen a few images that have too many competing elements to really be classed as minimalist. I know this is open to personal interpretation and I am open to suggestions how we as members can insure that the theme of the group is upheld….
3. Please remember that if your art work is deleted from the group, it was deleted due to point 1 and potentially point 2 above. It does NOT reflect on the quality of the art work itself.
Thats it, and remember, enjoy.

Is this group only for minimalist photography?

I think I would love to join this group very much if you will have me? I just need to go and try to find something minimal that takes my fancy first to be able to download one image! Brilliant group, it makes you think about your subject very much!

Ash – no, its for minimalist art.

Sylvia, everyone is welcome. By all means join…the more members the merrier. Look forward to your contribution…

I’ve interviewed some well known minimalist artists, including Norman Carlberg, and others associated with some of the earlier movements, like Julian Stanczak. Here is a link to my blog, www.myartspace.com/blog.

Hello Balhatain – thanks for the link. I will check it out…..

I really don’t think you’ve got a handle on the meaning of “minimalist” based on my last couple of rejections. No worries though. Group not for me. Just left. Buh-Bye
