Photo by Paul McDonough The Sasha Wolf Gallery in Tribeca is now showing In Our Dreams, a group exhibition that’s up until August 9th. I love Pablo Lopez’s photos of Mexico, particularly “Libramiento, Mexico-Cuernavaca, 2007.” Also intriguing is the baby sleeping under newspapers (above) in Paul McDonough’s photo “Couple with Baby, 1979, NYC,”. The whole [...]

Adaptation
July 21, 2008 – 9:24 pm
This movie is great. I remember it coming out and my thinking I should watch it but I just never got around to it. Anyway, yesterday I watched it. Meryl Streep (with whom I am not ashamed to admit I am more-than-slightly obsessed) is fantastic as writer Susan Orlean, Nick Cage carries the role of [...]
Part 1 of 3: interview with Nico Dios
July 21, 2008 – 8:44 pm
Exploiting the countless forms of communication, I conducted three interviews with artists, using three different forms of communication. These artists are not necessarily the art-stars we see posing awkwardly on the cover of magazines or hiding quietly in the corners of exclusive nightclubs.

Ira Glass on Creative Work
July 14, 2008 – 2:49 pm
I stumbled upon this great video, which is actually the third of four, in which This American Life‘s Ira Glass talks about telling great stories and making good creative work. You needn’t be in radio or TV to learn something from this. Ira talks about how discerning taste and love for what you do combined [...]
40 and a Blunt
July 14, 2008 – 1:33 pm
I went to see The Wackness purely for nostalgia of door-knockers and keeping shit on the D.L, but I actually thought it was pretty good. My boyfriend, who is from Seattle also liked it, so that should be some barometer. Me, I don’t think I really knew who Kurt Cobain was when he died and [...]

Marcelo Gomes has a new book. Available as an edition of 500 through Hassla Books, the 28-page saddle-stitched color work is a perfect companion to any summer activity, whether you’re flipping through it at a picnic, or in your favorite air-conditioned room.

Miles Anthony Benjamin Robinson’s video for “Buriedfed” is up on Pitchfork. I like that he’s wearing shorts, gives the whole thing an authentic feel. Congrats to Miles, who’s been making big moves this summer. “Buriedfed” [Video Premiere] | Pitchfork
Look: Curated by Tony Cederteg
July 9, 2008 – 11:16 pm
We’ve updated the Look section of our site and we’re really psyched about it. Since the site launched, our Creative Director Skye Parrott was holding down the curation of that page. However, we’ll now have a monthly featured curator. For July, Tony Cederteg of Cederteg Publishing has provided us with some new visual selections from [...]
