Contemplating the Void

Curators Nancy Spector and David van der Leer of the Guggenheim Museum asked nearly 200 artists and architects to create something that would fill the void in Frank Lloyd Wright's famous rotunda.

Some of the results look pretty interesting...





More photos and info here and here

I haven't been to the guggenheim in awhile, but that exhibit combined with Tino Sehgal's “relational” works that call for the interior walls of the museum to be completely bare sounds pretty rad as well.

William Kentridge: Five Themes

I'm not even a huge Kentridge fan, but this book is so nice.
Goes along with the exhibition that just opened at MoMA on Feb 24th.
Designed by Pentagram: Abbott Miller & Kristen Spilman

rambling

I went vintage shopping this weekend in the lower east side (nyc).
and was on the hunt for a fur coat, and I found an awesome one...
It’s short and looks just like this only brown wild rabbit fur.



I bought it at No Relation on 1st ave between 12th & 13th street.
They have SO much awesome stuff there, highly recommend checking it out!


No Relation Vintage

But still, even though there are so many great vintage shops in nyc,
none seem to measure up to Beyond Retro in London
(brick lane location, not carnaby st).


Beyond Retro

Most of their clothes are sourced from the States so why cant they open one here!
PLEASE!
I miss Beyond Retro!!!

The clothes from Davidelfin S/S '10 were o.k. but the colour palette was AMAZING
