Another work of art I have found that was created in 1992 is James Rosenquist piece title Time Dust which is a very impressive being that it was created with so many different mediums which include planographic, intaglio, stencil, relief, collage, embossing, paper pulp colour lithograph, screenprint, relief, etching, stamping and collage on seven sheets of colored pressed paper pulp. This print is thought to be the largest in the world measureing in at 7 by 35 feet. Also James Rosenquist was one of the main characters in the pop art movement.

Here is a quick over view of some important events in 1992. Well what I see to be important.

• George h.w bush was the president of the united states of america.
• The Iraq disarmament crisis was in play at this time.
• The Silance of the lambs won best picture of the year in the 64th academy awards.
• On April 13 the great Chicago flood took place which was when a damaged utility wall beneath the Chicago river and flooded many areas around the loop.
• A jury acquits 4 LAPD officers of beating Rodney King which causes the Los Angeles riots with 52 deaths.
• Jay Leno becomes the new host of the tonight show. ( not really relavent but he is STILL the host of the tonight show its been 18 years!)
• Rigoberta Menchú won the Nobel peace prize for dedicating her life to publicize the things Guatemalan indigenous people went through during and after the Guatemalan civil war.

Thats what I found was going on in the year 1992 which may of influenced what was going on in the art world.
