video installation?

Patterning
Just went to the Charles Burchfield show at the Whitney. Interestingly, at one time Burchfield worked as a designer at a wallpaper factory in Buffalo, New York, using his fascination with nature in the service of home decoration.
His wallpaper reminded me of a subway train I saw earlier this year. The whole train exterior had been patterned to advertise Target. It was slick and beautiful. Imagine if artists and surface designers were asked to do all the trains. What a phantasmagoria that would be.
Here's a blog I came across that features some stellar surface designers.

Mermaid Parade 2009
Admittedly it was pouring rain, the light was flat, rain drops kept blurring my lens, I was sick with a bad cough, and I couldn't decide how I was going to shoot the event. The die-hards and exhibitionistas kept me going (as well as a dry hat thanks to Brooklyn Lager and the promise of a dog at Nathans). The best comment I heard about the costume design was, "Well...you think of anything and then you mermize it." Here's a smattering of the 3000 plus, now weeded down to approx 140 photographs. The Coney Island Mermaid Parade lives on!

Then and Now

Everyone should be reading or twittering Art Fag City. Paddy Johnson's blog has gobs of info including answers to questions you didn't even know you needed the answer to like, "What artist has the largest number of public sculptures captured on Google Maps?"
Interesting video!
Painters Painting
Emile de Antonios 1974 documentary Painters Painting. The American Avant Garde after WWII. a rare collection of interviews with american artists. And as a side note bit of trivia Emile de Antonio used to have an office in the same building as my studio.
