I just wet to the Klimt show at the Neue Gallery- he is so consistently inspiring. In the show were a few of his charcoal portraits he did when he was 17, makes me want to get cracking.

David La Chapelle
I've been meaning to post this for a while. I saw this show last year in Chelsea and I thought it was great. I don't know if it was just me but I felt like the series must have had some relation to Katrina. I feel that way when I see most stuff having to do with floods, but it may be purely a commentary of religious symbology.

One Piece of Paper
These are from a competition for a DC Gallery. All are made from one sheet of paper.
Reality Art
I was wondering when this was going to happen... they are aparently putting a reality show together for visual art.
Sarah Jessica Parker, who I, and every other girl who has ever watched Sex and the City adores, is set to lend her name to an upcoming reality TV competition for aspiring artists. Pretty Matches, the actress' production firm, has teamed up with the producers behind hit U.S. reality programmes Top Chef and Project Runway for a series that will see 12 visual artists tackle different disciplines - such as sculpting and painting - for the chance to win a gallery show, cash prize and a sponsored tour around the U.S.
The as-yet-untitled series will feature a panel of the world's top art critics, who will rate the contestants' work.
It will probably be crap- but who knows. I guess it will take me getting a tv at some point to find out.

Postsecret
Postsecret
Postsecret has been around for a while, and has put out several successful books; its attraction is strange. Most of the anonyms entries are certainly not uplifting, but there is a universal quality to these private thoughts, as well as a shared urge to express our selves about things that may fell taboo. Do we enjoy learning about eachothers pain, or perhaps does it just lesson our own?

It's not all garbage!
I saw a work by Tim Noble and Sue Webster at the Tate Modern in London last time I was there. They are so clever!
