Artung Project

Found: a draft copy of an essay, “Concerning the Marvelous,” by the American poet Marianne Moore about MoMA’s Fantastic Art, Dada and Surrealism show in 1936-1937. Not sure if it was published anywhere? Anyone know? Excellent little aphorism shown in detail here, “An art movement is like a revolutionary political organisation, —immediately in anarchy with itself.” -ds

We’re diving into our vast media archive, bringing you something wonderful and inspiring to listen to every week!  Our most recent selection is an artist talk from 1986 with Richard Avedon, a photographer who revolutionized the genre of portraiture. Enjoy!

Ongoing project, where I use light and colored background to make plastic bags look magical. Creating a landscape within the plastic bag.  Plastic bags are a huge contributor to the landfill waste, and are extremely harmful for our oceans and the creatures living there. Do not say yes to a plastic bag when shopping. These plastic bags were found in the street.

And that just sounds funny
