Friday, November 18, 2011

Interview magazine happens to be my personal guilty pleasure, like others will be secretly or not so secretly reading Hello or Gala. Stars interviewing stars can be dull fare, or lead to some unexpected delights, which is exactly what makes Andy Warhol’s format so very entertaining.

READABLE ARTS

Monday, November 14, 2011

In the wake of the digital turn, the book is becoming a precious and extravagant superfluity and an aesthetic emblem. While the book is shifting from an inevitable cultural experience to a specialized one, the artist’s book undergoes an explosion of activity, proving once again that “when a medium dies, it becomes an art form.”

STORE OF THE MONTH: OMMU / ATHENS

Saturday, October 8, 2011
