Why you went to art school

Let’s just find a big open studio space with plenty of natural light, throw down some paper and drop cloths, cover our bodies in paint, and do floor work.

Wait, but really.

It’s quite simple.

Encourage someone today

Yes. All day, every day.

Untitled (Vivian Maier’s Shadow on Shoreline),ca. Late 1960s

Steven Kasher Gallery in Chelsea is exhibiting the work of secret shutterbug, Vivian Maier. Vivian Maier: Unseen Images features 35 black and white prints. When Maier died in 2009, she left behind more than 120,000 negatives and 2,000 undeveloped rolls of film. Last year, a couple hundred of these rolls, shot in the 1960s and 1970s, were finally developed. A selection of these images make their debut in this exhibition. (note: exhibition open from April 12, 2012 - May 26, 2012)

See Maier’s work on LightBox here.

To do. Anyone up for an afternoon at this exhibition, grabbing some snacks, and relaxing on the High Line?

Many Americans dream of driving across the country, survey shows: About 25% of men and 33% of women say they have not driven across the country but “always wanted to,” according to a survey released last week by the travel website Expedia.

Sure, but good luck coordinating schedules with your friends so you can have a driving buddy…

There are a bunch of nifty old cars in my neighborhood. I’m feeling a summer photo series of the classic cars and brownstones of Crown Heights. And dogs. There are so many cute dogs.

“The Happenings artists personified the collapse of the hegemony of painting and sculpture as they introduced elements from daily life and popular culture into environments and performances. It is indisputable that between 1958 and 1963 these events transformed art, the perception of art, and its reception by the public, which itself had been transformed by these actions.” - Milly Glimcher

Happenings: New York, 1958–1963 will be on view at 534 West 25th Street through March 17, 2012.

If you’re in New York this show is a must-see. One of my favorites I have seen in a while.

YES.

In time for Valentines Day, Lehmann Maupin Gallery presents a special installation of Tracey Emin’s neon text-based works with titles like “When I hold you I hold your heart”, “And I Said I Love you”, and “I Can’t Believe How much You Loved Me”. Written in her signature handwriting, Emin’s neon works illuminate the artist’s heartfelt emotions and desires.
