A wait for ever

We truly hope you can find a place in your heart for forgiveness as we feel quite bad that we haven’t posted anything during the last days, and we’d like to apologize. Unfortunately we’ve been dealing with hosting problems, lack of time, stress, and preparation for a couple of kick-ass activities of which we’ll be writing about during the next couple weeks. Meanwhile, enjoy this animated gif by Rene Abythe conveniently titled A Wait for Ever.

Damn, these compadres sure know how to get down!

I spotted this gem over at Pablo Leon de la Barra’s selection of youtube videos for Random Rules ‘09.

Beautiful light sculptures by Ayala Serfaty, which in a way remind me of the incredible work of Tara Donovan. No?

Paul McCarthy: Air Pressure

Stefan — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 05:06:20 +0000

These photographs of one of Paul McCarthy’s Infladable Pigs were all taken by Priscilla Tienkamp in Utrecht (Holland) during the installation process. They are tight!

We saw ‘em at MyopeMyope.

Neo Rauch

Through his unique approach of composing painterly images, Neo Rauch has managed to revolutionize contemporary German painting, unlike anybody else in his generation. His paintings draw from various influences including social realism and surrealism, although he’d probably be the first one to say it isn’t so…

Although at a first glance one would think all of his works are narrative, a deeper look will prove contrary. In them you’ll find a mix of his personal experiences, many men in uniform, and architectural elements that clash with the rest.

In short, it would be fair to say that he creates new realities through a careful compositional arrangement of many other realities in various scales, all of which seem to coexist harmoniously, regardless of his continuous mixing of painterly styles.

Ohh and by the way, here is Rauch himself in fron of one, or two, of his painted canvases:

Dust

Ujin Lee must have had a really fun time creating his Dust series. Each of the five photographs in it are beautifully composed, with this first one being my favorite!

Michael DeLucia

Although Michael DeLucia’s work hit the blogosphere a couple months back, I felt the need to blog about his amazing sculptural works as to give him a warm place in our amazing archives. His work is so fresh it hurts my eyes.
