All Things Art & Photography
Jim Campbell is a master at taking a moving image and making it a 3-Dimensional Sculpture…He relies on the power of the human mind to detect and recognize movement. He can take a string of lights and make magic with them. His work is really wonderful but you need to see the video to get it…

Reading like a 3-D map of Hannibal Lecter’s mind or possibly a allegory for the entire contemporary art world, David Altmejd creates a beautiful installation titled: The Flux and the Puddle at the Andrea Rosen Gallery in New York. Having seen this show in person I can assure you that never has plexiglass been so interesting….

Obviously influenced by the conceptual photographic artist John Baldessari and his ever present dots, Julie Cockburn takes it another step further and proves the more time you spend on your work the better you can see it. By stitching or collaging directly onto found photographs she makes them all her own. See her current exhibition at Yossi Milo.

My favorite works of Josiah MecElheny are made out of glass. They are extremely beautiful and memorizing. Here is a short piece regarding his thoughts on beauty and art. (Not very popular in the art world for a number of reasons he covers and challenges…)

Check out the new sculpture of Benedetto Bufalino. Reminds me of something that we would see in a Road Runner cartoon…
“In keeping with the theme of his humorous urban interventions, french artist Benedetto Fufalino has sent a residential caravan soaring into the sky. ‘la caravane dans le ciel’ is a mobile trailer situated atop a sky jack that slowly moves upwards towards the clouds. towering over trees and building-tops, the hybrid habitat is gradually lifted into the air and at night, the mysterious illusion lights up the sky with its illuminated interior windows”.
