LaVerne Krause, week one (book show)

Me with the full stack, opening day. At the top is an image of the depleted stack, two days later. People actually took pamphlets! There was only one red pamphlet left, and about 8 white pamphlets left when I deinstalled

LVK, part 2

Staple drawings

new take on an older billboard

pictures from home

I was fascinated by this billboard when I went home. After eyeing the billboard for a few weeks, I finally got a chance to snap a photo of it quickly, on my way to pick up a friend from the airport. Lucky, because the next day I drove by the billboard and it had changed. No more Rolex in the cliffs.

Independent Klaus

I noted this guy on my book shelf right before I left MT for Eugene. With a squirrel under one arm and a staff in the other, he was setting off on a journey of his own.
I found this stranded Santa in Sidney, MT, when I returned there for a day to visit some friends. They'd received 4 inches of snow or so.

Look who I ran into in WalMart the other day.

Edward was looking very pale, with gold glitter sprinkled all over his skin

Psycho studies

A good one:

"Plasticine and Dust"

Nice Gabriel Orozco article on the NYTimes. Note:

“I don’t like a big enterprise of people working for me,” he said. “I don’t want to be a master. I want to be a kid. To keep making art, you have to put yourself in the position of a beginner. You have to be excited by a stone on the sidewalk or, like a child, the flight of a bird.”

some more Representatives

Just a couple more photos for the Rep series.

These need some photo editing for sure, but just so I'm keeping track of them, I'll post em. I'm not sure what I want the girl billboard to do. I was playing with reflections, etc., but am not entirely convinced with those photos, they try too hard perhaps.

For the others, see:

I recently rediscovered this photo I took at the MoMA when I was in NY a couple years ago.

While wandering the museum I saw this woman, who had stopped to smile and pose for a photo with Andy Warhol's Orange Car Crash 14 Times...there was something so wrong about this, yet so right? or appropriate at least...in some way.

Rudolf Stingel, Hans Peter-Feldman

A collection of knees...

the work of Hans Peter Feldmann

I love this quirky humor of his, + typologies and classifications, so naturally I love his work :)

I just discovered Rudolf Stingel today.

It sounds like such a beautiful show. The styrofoam pieces and also the traveling graffiti piece are great, am intrigued by his glorified use of everyday material and by his invitation for the viewer's participation (the viewer's essentially make the piece in the foil graffiti)
