1000 Names by Anish Kapoor
1000 Names was Anish Kapoor first works done in 1979-80. Made from coloured pigment, the works was very much influenced by his journey through India in 1979 where small sanctuaries along the side of the road and little piles of pigment sold for cosmetic and ritual use at the entrances of temples.
There is thus an incessant multiplication of the inexhaustible One and unification of the indefinitely Many.
-Ananda K.Coomaraswamy, "The Hindu Tradition: The Myth"
-One that can be Many, Many that can be One. that's exactly what i want to make.

Louise Bourgeois
Louise BOURGEOIS "FEAR FOUR" 1984
Louise Bourgeois never accepted the rules and the usual mechanisms of the Art system. Though one of the words is anger, her works - and her words - look much more like audacious pages ( sometimes subversive ) of a diary than heavy punches in the stomach: "My sculpture allows me to live again my fear and give her a body so I can stand away from her. Fear becomes a reality easy to handle." "When I was young, all the women of my house used to sew and I was fascinated by the needles, by their magical powers. The needle is used to repair a damage: it is as if it apologizes, without hurting as pins do".
"I appreciate very much the mechanisms of seduction. I tell myself : "Louise, how will you do to seduce this stone and change it into an art work?" I am talking in terms of seduction because the resistance of the marble is almost total. Resistance attracts me". "For me the sculpture is the body. My body is my sculpture". (Louise Bourgeois)
- i like her abstract works which have primitive images.

One might not think of light as a matter of fact, but I do. And it is, as I said, as plain and open and direct an art as you will ever find.
—Dan Flavin, 1987
For more than three decades, Dan Flavin (1933-1996) vigorously pursued the artistic possibilities of fluorescent light. The artist radically limited his materials to commercially available fluorescent tubing in standard sizes, shapes, and colors, extracting banal hardware from its utilitarian context and inserting it into the world of high art. The resulting body of work at once possesses a straightforward simplicity and a deep sophistication.

Tracey Emin
Tracey Emin’s art is one of disclosure, using her life events as inspiration for works ranging from painting, drawing, video and installation, to photography, needlework and sculpture. Emin reveals her hopes, humiliations, failures and successes in candid and, at times, excoriating work that is frequently both tragic and humorous.
