reInstall



2 exhibitions featuring artists from our 'textbook' recently opened in the u.s.

first is in nyc from german artist and musician carsten nicolai a.k.a alva noto details and video

and second, and at a much bigger scale is the touring show of icelands olafur eliasson
a wired magazine article about the artist and the exhibitions
and a new york times article about the shows.

both are quick and interesting reads..

speaking of our textbook, since we will be more in studio mode for the rest of the semester let's keep reading the text each on our own, and finding extra tidbits and video and things about the artists in the book and post those here on the blog (like i have just done above). we'll try to fit in a couple more discussion sessions, but let's get the creative work done first!
