meg-article: when opportunity shops knock
When opportunity Shops knock.
I'm a little behind on my articles.
I thought this one was sort of funny. It's about a famous painting found in a thrift store in Texas.
Isn't it crazy how art's value is depicted upon fame. I'm sure that painting was a very nice painting.

New York Times: Work Stands Out Before It Blends In

recent Andy Goldsworthy Article for Megan
The way he goes about his work, is really beautiful and somewhat poetic. He works with natural found things and only uses his hands to create his work. He accepts the fact that what he creates will eventually fall apart. The construction is just as important as the de-construction.

Fecal Face: Sheapard Fairey Interview
article here
I came across this article not realizing it was about the artist that also made the Obama campaign posters, must be some kind of sign. Anyway I was disappointed that there weren't more images of his work so here's an interview he did last year... the interview talks a lot about skateboarding, but the Images of his work are pretty cool.
I'm not that into street art, but from the messages I get from his work I agree with his politics so I like that fact that it's in the street where people can see it. I like the graphic aesthetic of his work.

LensCulture: Hand to Mouth- photography and commentary by Tessa Bunney
article here
I felt her most successful photos were the ones without the portraits without faces (like the one above), I feel that they really captured the rural Romanian culture as a whole rather than documenting one specific person. There's something really interesting about the combination of the textile prints and tools in the photos.

p.s I'm really sorry that I've been a slacker in the article department.... I'll find a couple more this week to catch up!!
