I enjoyed parts of Paul Pfeiffer' but not all of it. I really enjoyed his work but found it very hard to figure out what it is exactly what he was trying to accomplish and how he feels about his current work. I don't know if I consider his work sculpture. I think that a large part is video, but think that the arts are merging together. What I got from his lecture is that he is exploring how iconic images and videos meant one thing when they were first shown and can mean something entirely different today. What these things meant then and what they mean now, I don't know. I also know that he left it up to the viewer on how long they were to engage the videos. I can relate this to traditional sculpture work as that it is entirely up to the viewer on how long they will look at a sculpture. Other than these two things I really didn't get much from his lecture. I find the questions that I came out with very intriguing and wanting me to explore more.
