Talk:Arman

Copyvio
Section removed:

Born Armand Pierre in Nice, France, Arman is best known for his artwork, although his life featured many other facets. He was, at times, a Judo master, a spear fisherman, and a collector of antiquities. Though he was a dreamer, he worked tirelessly on his creations; the myriad works which would define his place in the world. His artistic style featured an array of techniques, from the famed accumulations to drawings, paintings, sculpture, casting and even to installations and happenings. Influenced by Dada and later an influence upon much of Pop Art, Arman's works stand out through their aesthetics; Arman was the master of composition and this provides even his most absurdist works with beautifully realized compositions. Whether paint on canvas or garbage in Plexiglas, Arman saw the beauty and relevance of he everyday world and created art to reflect his own imaginative ideas on the world.

NPOV
This article is kind of an atrocity, NPOV-wise. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the subject to do a good job of fixing it, but I tried to remove or tone down the worst parts.--SethTisue 03:36, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Other Changes
Removed some non-encyclopedic "poetic" language from a few of the paragraphs. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Faithdabrooke (talk • contribs).

Photo


Thanks to generous contribution of portraits by Erling Mandelmann, we were able to illustrated many biographies in Wikipedia with photos. Among others, this includes a portrait of Arman.

As the image has a higher resolution than the current one in the infobox, I would move the one currently in the infobox further down and add the one by Mandelmann instead.

Disclosure: I have no link to Arman or Mandelmann other than editing this article of the former and working with batch uploads of the later at Commons. -- -- 签名 sig  at  13:52, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Exhibitions
The section “Selected exhibitions and awards” has an old (2011) tag suggesting that, because of its “dates and numbers”, it might be better presented as a sortable table. I agree that the sortable table is a very handy feature, but I don't believe this section is the place to use it. There are no “dates and numbers” — the dates are the only numbers, and they are already presented in sorted order, making the sort feature not useful. I'm going to drop that old tag.
