I Made This: Glorified Shelf

I’ve been calling this a ‘shelf’ or an ‘entertainment center’ based on how pretentious I felt at the moment. I made it to hold my DVDs, video games and DVD/video game accessories. After I finished it, I filled it with movies in about ten minutes and still have a few left over. There’s also no [...]

I Made This: Old Georgia Logo

Made. Traced. Recreated. Semantics… I found it in a calendar of old University of Georgia football artwork. Mostly game program covers. I don’t know why it has disappeared. It’s fucking awesome. And reminds me of this guy. My recreation here needs some touch up but it’s OK for now. Next step: touch up. Following step: [...]

Wonderful, if little known, artist Bruce Conner has died

One of my favorite assemblage artists has died. I bought Bruce Conner’s retrospective 2000 BC: The Bruce Conner Story a few years ago and I’m glad I did. His early work was very influential on me.

Teens vs. Picasso

For some reason I love hearing people’s initial reactions to pieces of modern art so this video disappointed me a little. It’s title on YouTube is “Teens Talk About Picasso’s Les Demoiselles D’Avignon.” It’s more like “A Frechman Talks to American Teens About Picasso.” Still, a good, brief discussion of the painting by some MoMA [...]

987 Polaroids

It’s called Process Enacted: by Jordan C Greenhalgh and it’s very Gondry-esque. No computers.

500 Years of Art and Women Identified

That video has been floating around the internets for a while. Not too bad in my opinion. And I just found a list that identifies all the pieces featured in the video. Link. Good art (mostly). Good list (especially).

Understanding Marcel Duchamp

UnderstandingDuchamp.com is a great site that I just found. Appropriately enough, it helps visitors understand the artwork of Marcel Duchamp, one of the more difficult artists of the 20th century.

I made this.

Actually, I just strategically painted, melted and sanded it. It’s Marvel Comics’ Thor from the Marvel Zombies miniseries. It’s very detailed and very true to Sean Philips art style in the comics. You should really go buy it. (I’m broke.)
