I just discovered the work of Alighiero e Boetti thanks to this post over at Little Paper Planes.  Here’s a sample from the MoMA archives:

"Microphone" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

"Primavera" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

"I sei sensi (The Six Senses)" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

Awesome stuff.

You can actually see all of his MoMA stuff here. And his Wikipedia entry here.

Bad At Sports has a post about Deb Sokolow’s work with the Chicago Public Schools.  Awesome. Being a huge fan I had to repost a link to it.

I love this photo. I love it so much that I’m reposting it without permission. I know that’s really not so cool, but you know what? It’s just that great a photo.

p.s. Dustin, contact me if you want it down.
p.p.s.: Can I use it for album cover art? (If the answer is yes, say nothing.)

Note: I think there’s a gallery in Brooklyn where you can buy a huge C-print of it.

1. This profile and interview with Fernando Llanos

This week, “We Make Money Not Art” has a profile of and interview with Fernando Llanos. I didn’t really know anything about him before reading this and I’ve never seen his installations, but it was both fascinating and inspiring to hear about him.

2. Newsweek Interview with Maurice Sendak, Spike Jonze, and Dave Eggers.

Great interview. I’d never actually read any interviews with Sendak before, but I love his abrasive worldview. It’s also interesting the way he seems like he’s trying not to step on Spike Jonze’s work, but obviously he still does distance himself from it. Good stuff.

3. ‘Suicide’ live on WFMU

Apparently, earlier in 2009, legendary NYC electro duo, Suicide, got back together. I hope it wasn’t just a one-time thing. Either way, now it’s on the internet for everyone to hear. They’ve actually only put up two songs…but still it’s very rad.

OK, that’s it for now. There will be more of these posts soon. I promise.
