Rachel Whiteread's "Ghost" at National Gallery of Art



The National Gallery has joined ArtBabble to post their videos on the web. I'm intrigued by this piece, a plaster cast of the space of a small room. She has turned the negative space of the room into a solid object, turning the room inside out. She quotes one viewer as saying it's like feeling the inside of his pocket. At the end (around 7:20) of the video are some good shots of the whole piece.

Polypus levis Hoyle (male) - Port Gazelle, Keguelen

This is why I love the internet. I was just browsing through my blog links and ran across this amazing post from BibliOdyssey about an oceanographic expedition in 1898 that recorded these amazing creatures that some refer to as our Cephalopod overlords. Now the book is on line as a PDF. Perhaps our overlords will enter my printmaking world...

About Me

I'm an architect with a passion for history and good design. I've worked with historic buildings for the past 30 years, which has developed my appreciation for beautiful buildings, powerful places, and layered landscapes. I've been developing these themes in my printmaking and photography. I’ve been studying for several years at Fleisher Art Memorial in Philadelphia, PA, perfecting my skills and joining in a creative community.
