Artist and theri Work
Fiona hall is well-known for using Sardine tins, knitted videotape and birds nests’ made of American dollars feature in a show rife with transformations, where metaphors are used to challenge representation and revisualise everyday objects. Also, Hall’s large body of work, widely various in materials and techniques, broadly concerns the nexus of nature and culture. She has made a series of nests from shredded dollar bills. The photo shown is the one of her works that was made by fine pieces of aluminium and American dollars which was twisted and crumpled to express a nest.

"Tracy Moffatt's best-known works, the film Night Cries, appears a recent series of large-scale photographic silk screens, Invocations. This juxtaposition works well, showing continuing concerns in the artist's work - the reality and the imaginative dimension of women's lives, filmic dreamworlds as backdrops to politically charged narratives, the interplay between gender, race and culture - and how her practice has changed. The silk screens are formally more ambitious, almost tacky in their glossy richness of colour, and both melodramatic and terrifying in their iconography. The new work is playful in a way Night Cries is not, with its suffocating narrative of an Aboriginal woman forced to care for the aged white woman who adopted her as a child. Moving from the silk screens to the film and back again, you notice the deeply symbolic and intertextual nature of both works, as well as Moffatt's use of saturated colour and painterly composition.

The Villa Savoye is considered by many to be the seminal work of the Swiss architect Le Corbusier. It is one of the most recognisable architectural presentations of the International Style. The one of intersting point is that the house was emblematic of Le Corbusier work in that it addressed "The Five Points" sucs as the Pilotis, a Garden area, free plan, horizontal windows and the freely designed facade.
The "Beatiful hands". This photo is the one of prizewinning work in the Korea Photo award. The photo shows a work by hands. It can be meant that people's hands can make everything. Although the hand in the picture is not beatiful, it can make beautiful things that can make an impression for people.
