Greetings, all!
I have a fun opportunity that I'd like some input on.
I have a friend who is interested in creating an art piece based on the "Target" works of the American painter Jasper Johns. He is fabricating six 4' X 4' panels, skinned with 1/4" thick plywood, and painting them a la http://americanthings.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/jasper-johns-target-by-artpostersdotjp.jpg
And then he wants to have a shooting party and put some holes in them! He imagines six people, with handguns, engaged in some sort of competition that will leave him with these targets riddled with holes. We'll be in an informal, outdoor shooting area. I am not sure what firearms will be brought, but imagine that it would include both semi-automatics and revolvers.
Leaving art criticism, or criticism of art, aside, I'm interested in suggestions about what a fun, engaging competition would be. These are big (again 4'X4') and bright. What distance? What style of competition, etc? How would you have fun with a group like this?
Thanks!
Josh
