Talk:Found objects

Delete this article?

This article is poorly written, has misleading information (i.e. the statement that the Dadaists thought a urinal was beautiful is a complete misunderstanding of Duchamp), and, perhaps most important, it is redundant with the Found art article to which Found object (singular) is redirected. emw 14:57, 16 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Factual inaccuracy

Examples:

  • Picasso led the way by using a basket and handlebars from a bicycle to create the armature for an appealing goat sculpture(This muddles up two different sculptures.)
  • Also see note above from emw

Original research

Examples:

  • Found objects have shape, color, texture--all the elements needed to create design.
  • Flat paper collage, and relief-sculpture montages were no longer considered dynamic enough

Point of view

Examples:

  • In the mid-20th century, Picasso led the way
  • they deserved more respect simply by being.

addressed

I've rewritten the article and hopefully these points have now all been addressed. Grutness...wha? 01:29, 14 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I concur with Grutness that the above issues have now been addressed in his rewrite of the article. Tyrenius 02:27, 14 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

move to singular, Found object

Because of the rewrite and the other issues that have been brought up, it seemed like this should no longer be deleted. However I don't think the plural form Found objects is the right place, the singular Found object seems to be better. Right now, Found object is a redirect to Found art. I'd like to propose: - to Move the Found objects page to Found object - to redirect the Found objects page to Found object I'd add this comment to the talk page of Found objects as well. - Clubmarx | Talk 19:34, 14 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
