what a migrane looks like

pretty accurate I'd say...as someone that frequently experiences migranes.

I came across this while going through the wellcome collection image archive.



"Painting of a barn showing the visual phenomena the artist experiences during a migraine. Visual confusion, overlaying and flattening of images, pulsating kaleidoscopic colours of an intense hue and sparkling white ‘stars’ have been analysed as representative of basilar migraine. These features lead to the visual confusion and discomfort experienced during an attack."

Matrin Kippenberger Retrospective at MoMA

Go see it!

I saw the members preview of it last week, but now it is open to the public.
I wasn't overly familiar with his work before, but it was definitely a show worth seeing.
Kind of amazing that such diverse work was all made by the same person.




this installation part by him is separate from the exhibit on the top floor.

Mary Heilmann


Tomorrow’s Parties, 1979/1994

I really love this, but it is the only piece of hers I like.
For anyone that likes her other stuff though,
there is currently a retrospective of her work at New Museum in nyc.
