New sources to include in Can't Help Myself Article

[edit]

In an effort to create an insightful Wikipedia page about Can't Help Myself by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu, it is quintessential that the article has several sources that support its discussion and conclusions. Some of these sources include:

Rickey, George W. “The Morphology of Movement: A Study of Kinetic Art.” Art Journal 22, no. 4 (1963): 220–31. https://doi.org/10.2307/774539.

  • This article investigates motion as a material for art as well as the qualities of kinetic sculpture. This article also touches upon the nature of kinetic art and the impacts of this technical accomplishment on its perspective audience.

Carrol, Noël. “Art and Globalization: Then and Now.” The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism 65, no. 1 (September 22, 2007): 131–43. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1540-594X.2007.00244.x.

  • This article demonstrates the intersectionality between politics and art as it serves as a means of disseminating political messages and ideals that are often controversial. This article also speaks about how Asian artists use new aesthetic strategies to infiltrate into a Western audience and integrate themselves and their styles into mainstream Western art.

Shan, Lo Yin, Janet Fong, and Isaac Leung. “Digitisation with (in/out) Borders.” In Boredom, Shanzhai, and Digitisation in the Time of Creative China, edited by Jeroen de Kloet, Chow Yiu Fai, and Lena Scheen, 307–14. Amsterdam University Press, 2019. https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctvqr1bnw.26.

  • This is an interview that speaks on the limitations that international borders have when trying to broadcast certain messages, especially those of political nature, and how art through new mediums, such as photography and the internet, has been able to overcome these barriers. The interview also mentions Can't Help Myself directly and emphasizes its "uncontrollably violent nature", tying this in with the artists "philosophic thinking of (the) inner-self of human being".

Tone in "Dances, duty, and demise"

[edit]

I feel the bulk of the article's tone in that section (and partially elsewhere) seems to be excessively lifted from the source. While we must indeed explain things, I feel we shouldn't take the sources' structure as gospel. 2803:4600:1116:4C4:B128:B9B9:2471:1FE2 (talk) 05:03, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
