Apple type gadgets iPod, iPhone and iPad gave us not only many new opportunities for listening to audio, playing videos, making phone calls and communicating with other people, but also for creativity. Here are the pictures painted by the artist David Hockney using corporation products Apple, and are now on display on his personal exhibition "Me draw on iPad" at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.
Apple products cause a lot of conflicting feelings about themselves. Someone hates it and even wants to destroy it, as the artist Michael Tompert does in his works from the Apple Destroyed Products series, and someone uses it as a means for creativity, like, for example, the artists Katya Sokolye (Katie Sokoler) and David Hockney. This is the last one that will be discussed today.
David Hockney's exhibition Me draw on iPad takes place in a dark room lined with rows of twenty digital iPods and twenty iPads. All of them alternately reproduce the pictures painted by Hockney on the same, or rather, similar gadgets from Apple, using the "Brush" application. There is also a projector that shows all these pictures in large sizes.
Moreover, it should be said that the exhibition "Me draw on iPad" is constantly replenished with new paintings that David Hockney draws now and sends by e-mail to a special address.
The main goal of the exhibition of works by David Hockney "Me draw on iPad" is to show the enormous opportunities that modern digital devices, new technologies and specifically multitouch technology provide us with.
All of this causes real admiration, but at the same time a little concern. How would one of the visitors in the darkness of the hall, where the exhibition “Me draw on iPad” is presented, snatch a couple of iPads and iPods. Not everyone understands their artistic value.

Frivolous Drawings by the Serious Artist David Shrigley
Demotivators, Someecards, and just pictures with funny, "thoughtful" or naive captions have become extremely popular over the past couple of years, especially on social networks. Although this format is the younger brother of cartoons, comics and illustrations, well-deserved and time-tested genres, few people take it seriously. Or maybe it would be worth it, given that the new list of nominees for one of the most prestigious awards in the world in the field of contemporary art - the Turner Prize - don't care
