The poster ‘Hope’ (Fairey, S, 2008) used during the “During the 2008 U.S. presidential election” (p50,Heller & Vienna, 2012) was created over a photograph of the candidate using block colours creating gesture of what I can only assume is American dream, supported by the title “Hope” laid across the bottom of the poster. Something provocative for voters during national poverty and political disillusionment. Colours used allude to connotations of “trust, authority, seduction, danger” (Color Matters, 2017) which could subconsciously implant and enforce the idea to vote Barack Obama into Presidency.

The “Monument for V.Tatlin” is more of a use of “situational” application of the arts to

 

communicate a tribute to the architect Vladimir Tatlin’s “unrealised Tower of 1920, Monument to the Third International” (p.26, Hodge, 2012). “It was devoid of personal expression” (p.26, Hodge, 2012), this indicates that this work was more for intended to commemorate a design and that only. But looking closer and more in depth it is visible that the use of lights has structured the entire model, lights burn out was this a subliminal homage to the fact that Tatlin ”embraced several technological advances”   in his design .
