Communicative Semiotics in Everyday Life (Cultural Criticism – the Image in the 21St Century)
Communicative Semiotics in Everyday Life (Cultural Criticism – the image in the 21st century) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English School of Arts Brunel University June 2014 DALEL FIDOUH This thesis is dedicated with the deepest love and everlasting respect to my parents. ii Abstract What am I seeing? What does it mean? This thesis addresses the transformations in cultural life in the 21st century due to the cultural dominance of the image, which resulted from the radical change and enormous progress in the media, communication and the development of information systems in the world. All this has led to changes in the intellectual structure, and an increased tendency to drift in all areas, and the emergence of a society and a culture governed by the culture of shock. The fundamental issue concerning the image is an epistemological issue, as we cannot distinguish between the visual image and the semantic product. We live in a world surrounded with stunning and spectacular visual images. We are overloaded with images from all types in our everyday life. We probably see images more than we read words. This thesis provides an analytical framework for understanding how images produce meanings using the semiotic approach. Semiotics is the most important approach that can be used to analyze all types of images. Semiotic analysis addresses images as signs which communicate meaning. The symbols used in signs are often culturally specific. This thesis indicates the focus of the receiver to adapt to this visual cultural situation, to be able to grasp the content of the new cultural discourse as it is present in all the details of the receiver’s daily life. -
Julien's Auctions Announces Rare Sale of Banksy Original Graffiti Mural
JULIEN'S AUCTIONS ANNOUNCES RARE SALE OF BANKSY ORIGINAL GRAFFITI MURAL CONTROVERSIAL GRAFFITI ARTIST BANKSY’S PUBLIC MURAL DETACHED FROM LOS ANGELES GAS STATION TO HEADLINE JULIEN’S STREET ART AUCTION Beverly Hills, California – August 13, 2013 … On the heels of the recent $1.1 million sale of the Banksy mural Slave Labor, Julien’s Auctions, the premier celebrity and entertainment memorabilia auction house, has announced the rare sale of an original mural from controversial graffiti artist Banksy. Banksy’s Flower Girl, which formerly occupied a Los Angeles gas station wall, will headline Julien’s Auctions “Street Art” auction to take place Thursday, December 5, 2013 in Beverly Hills. This rare opportunity to own one of Banksy’s early large-scale graffiti murals will mark the first time a work of public street art by Banksy has been offered at auction in America. (Flower Girl, Banksy, 2008, Estimate: $150,000-$300,000) Banksy is one of the world’s most provocative artists. TIME Magazine selected the British graffiti master, painter and activist as one of the world’s most influential people in 2010, among people such as Steve Jobs, Barack Obama, Lady Gaga and others. Although his art commands hundreds of thousands of dollars, his identity remains concealed. His world-famous street art can be found on facades from Great Britain to Israel’s West Bank to the streets of Los Angeles. The majority of works by this controversial artist reflect his criticism of the government, presenting strong themes concerning surveillance and the government’s role in modern society. For Flower Girl, Banksy utilized black aerosol stenciling to reveal a young girl in silhouette, with a basket of picked flowers, gazing up into a security camera which has blossomed from a tall plant. -

Is Graffiti Art?
IS GRAFFITI ART? Russell M. Jones A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2007 Committee: Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Allie Terry ii ABSTRACT Dr. Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Illegal graffiti is disconnected from standard modes of visual production in fine art and design. The primary purpose of illegal graffiti for the graffiti writer is not the visual product, but “getting up.” Getting up involves writing or painting one’s name in as many places as possible for fame. The elements of risk, freedom and ritual unique to illegal graffiti serve to increase camaraderie among graffiti writers even as an individual’s fame in the graffiti subculture increases. When graffiti has moved from illegal locations to the legal arenas of fine art and advertising; risk, ritual and to some extent, camaraderie, has been lost in the translation. Illegal graffiti is often erroneously associated with criminal gangs. Legal modes of production using graffiti-style are problematic in the public eye as a result. I used primary and secondary interviews with graffiti writers in this thesis. My art historical approach differed from previous writers who have used mainly anthropological and popular culture methods to examine graffiti. First, I briefly addressed the extremely limited critical literature on graffiti. In the body of the thesis, I used interviews to examine the importance of getting up to graffiti writers compared to the relative unimportance of style and form in illegal graffiti. This analysis enabled me to demonstrate that illegal graffiti is not art. -

But it is not only a hatred and manifests itself in many different ways. It includes medieval blood libel claims rooted in Christianity and twentieth century conspiracy theories about Jewish control of the world economy. It encompasses Holocaust denial and distortion and virulent anti-Israel animus. It can exist in places where Jews are prominent and visible and in places where Jews themselves are entirely absent. It may be present in physical encounters at work or on the street or in the virtual world of the internet and social media. -
