Richard Hawkins

I can't say that I enjoyed his work. In my opinion, the whole show looked like some high school boy's art project done after some bad sex education. In the room full of cutting out images glued together, bad photoshoped zombi heads, and bad crafted sculptures, I was a bit confused where I was.    

I escpecially disapprove the collages in the first room of the gallery. To me there is not really that depth as what the introduction says. Merely using the images of the Greek sculpture communicates nothing to me but "I cut out some Greek sculpture pictures from some history book". The same thing happened with the Japeness boy pictures too. Any google research with the key world "Greek sculpture" and "Asian fashion magazine male model" will provide images like this. I really do not think there is any value for people to pay to see this exhibit.

However, the nice white walls and the very loud alarm system that scream long before anybody get even close to the art work did help the whole show of Hawkin's work seemed extremely important.  Seeing families bring their young children walking across the show room, I just wonder what can the images of Richard Hawkins possibaly do to benifit the souls of any little ones or even the bigger ones.
