Juxtapose

A word meaning to place objects next to one another to create contrast. It has widely been used in the art world, and, unfortunately, has been picked up by art students. This means that if there is any contrast in any given student piece, you are bound to hear this word when critique time comes around.

Student A: The artist is creating a vivid dialogue through the use of the miniscule color-blocked area of the painting juxtaposes the gargantuan, overpowering, almost didactic imagery encompassing it.

Student B: You're just trying to use big words at this point, aren't you?

Juxtapussytion

A specific style of the artistic technique of 'juxtaposition' whereby one of the contrasting images contains a vagina motif.

'The Guggenheim has an incredibly powerful Andy Warhole work on display called 'pooch in the cooch.' The juxtapussytion of putting a Doberman in a midget's vagina not only made an interesting statement on the modern existential dilemma, but also gave me a bone so hard a dog couldn't chew through it.'
