Tara Donovan: Pins & Mylar at Pace

Tara Donovan Pins and MylarBeing a longtime fan of Tara Donovan’s work, I was especially happy to learn of her two shows at two different Pace Galleries in NYC these past two months. The top two (I’m noticing a lot of “twos” in this post) images are from her nickel-plated steel pin drawings at the 25th St. gallery. The bottom image is of her mylar sculpture “Untitled (Mylar) 2011” which takes up most of the space at the 22nd St. location.

Stack Chair

Perfect for the stacks of SAT and AP books in Em’s room that I’m not quite sure why we’re keeping. A semblance of order in the disorder. Stack Chair vinyl wall stickers are designed by Florian Kremb of AMPLIFIER and available here.

Felice Varini

Felice VariniI’ve just discovered the mind-blowing Felice Varini. What looks like a Photoshopped translucent pattern layered over a photo are actually painted walls, floors, ceilings (and any other objects that get in his way) resulting in the optical illusion. He’s been creating these for over 30 years and there are so many that it’s hard to choose which ones to post. I suggest you look at them all here.

Morning After Portraits

Andy Diaz Hope Morning After Port“The morning after portraits are portraits of people in front of their medicine cabinets or in their local pharmacies with hangovers, migraines, morning sickness and other maladies self-inflicted or bestowed by nature. When viewed from afar, the portraits can be read as a whole image. As one moves closer, the image begins to break down and the individual capsule pixels become more dominant.”
