Book Review

I am going to purchase some new reading material. Suggestions? I have not yet read "Who's Afraid of Post Modernism?" Sydney, this is your time to shine.

Weekend Goodness

So I had a really wonderfull time this weekend and am soooo glad that I was able to be with you all. Lauren, you were with us in spirit (hopefully you got our totally spastic voice mail this morning....). Sydney, congratulations again on your show: you are amazing. Amazing. I really don't have the words. Maybe in a few days I will be able to better express my wonder.

Alright, a few things. First: we received a really great compliment from Dan today. He was talking about how he reads our blog and loves to keep up with what we are making and looking at and talking about. He said that he uses us in his classes as a second model for post-grad art community and continuing production (the first model being the rented studio experience of Jon, Kurt, etc.) I liked how he was saying that we are the sort of "new" model because we have taken it to the internet. Our experience (unlike that of students past), lends itself to everyone, not just those who can afford a studio. A blog is free, and we don't all have to live in the same area. Anyway, he said some good things about Nesbit. Go us! And yay Dan.

Second: Dan was also asking when our next crit might take place. I am guessing that with Sydney just having finished her show and Elly now working toward a spring exhibit, we might look at having a crit in a couple months (not too soon, not too far). Maybe it can go hand-in-hand with our Nesbit t-shirt thing. Think about it. Yay!

Jealous

I don't even know what to say about this.

Oh my tripe

This, this is just craziness. It is so beautiful and perishable and really just weird. I love it.







The artist is Pinar Yolacan. She's just 23 years old! Read more about her here.

I still suck...

I broke it off with neil...

fishy indeed...

These are some images I pulled from dearada.typepad.com "Mapping" or utilizing geometry whilst investigating the intricacies of flora and fauna. When I see artworks such as these, I can't help but feel that I accidentally stumbled into a swiftly moving river of trend. Much of my work a few months ago was spent in a similar vein, and now I find myself at a standstill. Where to go from here?
