''NewsBank''.〕 He once played in the popular Glaswegian band The Boy Hairdressers,〔Lambie takes steps to add to floor show, David Pollock, ''Edinburgh Evening News'', Scotland, February 5, 2003.

''NewsBank''.〕 ==Style== Lambie specialises in colourful sculptural installations made from everyday modern materials including pop culture objects, such as posters and album covers, and household accessories.〔〔Tate Britain, as above〕 The other trademark theme in his artistic practice is using brightly coloured vinyl tape arranged into patterns around the floor of the gallery space, tracing the shape of the room to reveal the idiosyncrasies of its architecture.〔 The vinyl tape, an everyday material applied in continuous lines, has a capacity to transform the dynamics of space, changing a quiet gallery space into an energetic and emotional space of sensory pleasure. Lambie creates a rhythm that vibrates and pulsates, and even confuses and disorients the spectator. According to Lambie: “For me something like Zobop, the floor piece, it is creating so many edges that they all dissolve. Is the room expanding or contracting? … Covering an object somehow evaporates the hard edge off the thing, and pulls you towards more of a dreamscape.”〔http://www.webexhibits.org/colorart/lambie.html〕 In addition to his mesmerizing floor installations, Lambie creates found object sculptures.〔http://www.cmoa.org/international/the_exhibition/artist.asp?lambie〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jim Lambie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
