I was reading today a little piece from a peachpit"Beyond the Medium" by Curt Cloninger, June 17. on how it is important for an artist not to be defined by his media. People that design web pages seem to think only in that media when there is so much art that can influence and should be simultaneously engaged.
One of the artists cited is Vito Acconci. He started out with street projects and now has moved his art into architectural projects like the bridge on the river Mur in Austria.
I hope you follow the links above and catch some pretty interesting images! And some food for thought.
We really shouldn't let the medium define us.

and yet, in "art" school, you are told to develop your "style" in all the different mediums, I suppose so you are marketable, but I was never quite sure what was meant by this.
