    Fine Arts Gallery: Dylan Mackenzie

    No full text
    Dylan has a diagnosis of ASD [Autism Spectrum Disorder]. This impacts his ability to communicate - he is (mostly) non-verbal, and as a result this affects his learning and emotional development. Dylan will likely require support throughout his life. Nonetheless, he is physically fit and active, loving and good humoured. His love of the outdoors inspires his artistic practice, and he attends regular classes and workshops at Project Ability - a Glasgow-based visual arts organisation which creates artistic opportunities for people of all ages with disabilities and people with lived experience of mental ill-health. He explores experiences through lyrical and expressive mark making, translating visual scenes into physical, and frequently adding gathered natural materials as mediums, making his work tactile and connecting to an oft visited landscape, while depicting moments of looking and reflecting – of receptivity. Although his compositions do contain an element of a preconceived notion that guides, they also reveal themselves, discovered and elaborated in the course of their execution and capturing an element of that moment, and at a minimum express the sheer joy of covering something in paint

    Bob Dylan and religion

    No full text
    This article, which is located within the field of research on religion and popular culture, is a discussion of the relations of one particular rock artist, Bob Dylan, to religion. Religion can be seen as a recurring topic in Dylan’s work—particularly during a period at the end of the 1970s and beginning of the 1980s, often referred to as his ‘Christian era’—and also in the discourses around him. This article explores how the topic of religion appears in discourses around Bob Dylan. In this article one particular aspect of the connection between religion and popular culture is looked at: the construction of certain artists or stars as religious figures, and more specifically Bob Dylan as a case. The author does not try to discover whether Dylan is religious or not; or which religion he possibly adheres to. Rather, the author looks at how rock artists and in this case Bob Dylan are ‘constructed’ as religious figures

    Dylan to English Dictionary

    No full text
    Dylan to English Dictionary, by A.J. Weberman. New York, 2005. This curious resource would seem, at first glance, to be a basic reference work treating Dylan\u27s lyrics to some form of translation. One only needs to read the very first paragraph of this work to learn that its author was deeply obsessed with Dylan, and through various experiences on LSD came to believe he could interpret hidden meaning in all of Dylan\u27s lyrics. He also credits himself for coining the term Dylanology.https://digitalcommons.lasalle.edu/dylan_academic_interpretations/1001/thumbnail.jp
