You've said Kandinsky's name around the wrong way. Kandinsky is his last name.

I did Gordon Bennet for my essay. He is endlessly interesting. His performance piece where he whips and name calls a black box is interesting to talk about.

AND for anyone doing HENSON, there is a book released this week, called "The Henson Case" which would be well worth reading.

does it actually have nething u could write an essay on for henson; surely it would just be a book debating the ethical problems with his latest work and theres only so much u could do in an essay about that without it looking like u just did an artist whod been popping up in the tabloids and didnt require research

Depending on the question 3 or 4 of: Ai Wei Wei, Andy Goldsworthy, Baraba Kruger, Anselm Kiefer, Ricky Swallow and Fiona Hall.

Do we have to do 4? I always thought it was whatever suited.

Nah u can do as many as the q asks 4... some questions only require 1 and my teacher is an hsc marker said that for the year 11s if they answered a question that specified 1 artist and gave more than 1 she only marked one of them... so i dunno if they do that in the hsc but i would def do what the bos asks and not chuck 4 in if its not necessary
