The Big Blob

Yes, all sewn together. Willy and Nilly. Still think it's a bit of too many solo performers in this group, but I'll keep going. I refer to this as a big blob, or an octopus where everything is connected and unshiftable. If that is even a word.
 

Ta Daaaaaa

Over a month back I showed you a piece my son-in-law commissioned for sound absorbing panels. I printed and painted on white unprimed linen, that was stretched over a frame and stuffed with Rock Wool. Here's the installation. I'd like it even if it didn't absorb.

Visit to National Museum Art Gallery

A cloak by Issey Miyake stands in front of a Frank Stella work that is part of the highlight of abstraction in art, a topic near to my heart. More to see later in Canberra.

Clarifying Urban Noise

You'd think it was easy. Try it and see. Abstraction, decisive strokes, clean lines, composition that is spot on --- not so easy. Franz Kline was painting his urban world, and "The Bridge" is his distillation of those city elements. From yesterday's visit to the Munson Williams Proctor Art Institute.
