• A Natural in Photography

      Thursday, 15 May 2008 11:12

      I was born in Shanghai. To me, taking photos is natural. Objects such as decorations on the wall, dust on the table, or wine bottles on the window sill, all have a sense of poetic sadness. The still life represents a reality that is neglected by us. The sense of smell, poetry, and alcohol help […]

    • Brothers by Choice

      Wednesday, 14 May 2008 11:23

      In this work we explore sexual cues like assholes, dildos, and meat bags out of the context of masturbation. We even made it just plain dirty. Yet we still can’t lock the bedroom door, let the Top Ramen cool, and really interact with the work.   Brothers by Choice collective is Andreas Tagger, Andy Sims, […]

    • ? THE WAR

      Tuesday, 13 May 2008 11:54

      Sometime in September 2007, Jan and I realized there were no iconic images for the current anti-war movement. With no draft and limited visual coverage of the ugliness of the war, there’s barely a movement at all. If the traditional method of resistance was that prominent artists pick up the baton and take the lead, […]

    • Living Painting—Harry C. Doolittle’s Kaleidoscopic Mandalas

      Friday, 9 May 2008 12:12

      Starting with canvas board, the artist composes unplanned compositions stemming from his unconscious and his dreams, compositions he often fully visualizes while he sleeps. Often centralized around the motif of the circle—or for Doolittle, the mandala—these visionary acrylic images combine repeated patterning of circles and rectilinear components, resulting in dramatic designs that produce interesting optical […]
