Document Content and Description Below
Examine a specific artwork influenced by a literary work and how the artist captured the subject or story. Here are a few examples, but you are not restricted to this list: I chose Jeff Wall, After ... “Invisible Man” by Ralph Ellison, the Prologue (1999- 2000). This staged photograph by Canadian artist Jeff Wall was inspired by Ralph Ellison’s 1952 novel ‘Invisible Man’, which explores the struggle of an unnamed African American man in the mid twentieth century. In the prologue, he describes his basement room lit “by 1369 light bulbs that are powered by illegally siphoned electricity [ CITATION Nao16 \l 1033 ].” In his prologue and epilogue, Ralph Ellison creates a frame for this story of the twentieth-century black experience. He uses a nameless narrator to expose many of the stereotypical ideas people have about the African American race. It is a complex story that unravels as the young man is thrown into one experience after another. According to our textbook, “One of the most striking resources of language is its capacity to help us reconstruct in our imaginations the “reality” of perceptions (Jacobus & Martin, p. 184, 2018).” The photography by Jeff Wall shows a barefoot man sitting on a chair in a cluttered and windowless room. The ceiling is covered with a hanging mass of mostly unlit lightbulbs. “The basement’s cramped and messy condition creates a sense of anxiety, conveying the man’s loneliness and isolation [ CITATION Nao16 \l 1033 ].” Wall is ensuring that this unnamed protagonist of Ellison’s novel is given light enough to make him visible at last.
