earthworks

EARTHWORKS was a recent one night show at cl-oth in chelsea that a lot of people didn't get a chance to see since it was so quick, so i have posted some shots from the show. the artists are patrick brennan (painting), ned colclough (sculpture) and jd walsh (video).

marina abramovic

the performance artist, marina abramovic is sitting at the moma for 2 and a half months and people are invited to sit with her for as long as they wish. the photographer, marco anelli is shooting portraits of every person who sits with her and they have all been posted on the moma flickr account. the collection is quite amazing.

TAF created these fabric covered foam "parcels" as the simplest form of upholstered furniture. read more here on their site.

phillip low

these glass sculptures by phillip low are amazing. the photos of the sculptures are equally amazing. you can find them at the new lower east side boutique/gallery, maryam nassir zadeh.

they also match my header quite nicely.

jorge colombo

this week's cover of the new yorker has a really cool drawing by artist jorge colombo. the amazing thing is that he made the drawing in an hour using an i-phone application called brushes. there's a video on the new yorker website showing the process. very beautiful. also check out other work on his personal website.

artists in residence

the architectural digest website has a great slide show showing the homes of famous artists. my favorite is this exterior shot of the home of Claes Oldenburg and his wife and creative partner, Coosje van Bruggen. the pin sculpture looks amazing in this idyllic setting.
