from ArtBabble:
Fulvia Carnevale and James Thornhill, members of the parisian collective known as Claire Fontaine, dialogue with mexican curator Cuauhtémoc Medina about their intervention at the Museo Tamayo, and their vision of the meaning on doing what they do.
One of the best project/process vids by artists we've seen. Glorious experience watching the work born.
Thanks to Tim McFarlane for sharing this video.

Julia Blaukopf is a social artist and photographer who focuses on the work of creatives and innovators in Germany to craft visual narratives that speak to the story behind each subject. She fuses the images with various materials including wallpaper, glass disks, shells, and fabric to create installations that speak to documentary and design.

A view of the installation of the first room.
If you haven't seen John Zinsser at Larry Becker in Old City you still have a chance. The exhibition has been extended an additional week and the gallery will be open for March First Friday.
On our walking tour yesterday, before all the shows change over, we stopped by LG Tripp. The show features two versions of aggressive by Plamen Veltchev and Alison Stigora. Veltchev's feature sharp machine made objects while Stigora's are made of ominous yet less threatening wood.
The huge installation in the back room will surprise you. Go and experience this show before it closes. We'd love to know what you think.
You won't come out of this show without an opinion.
January 21 – February 26, 2011
We stopped by Muse Gallery yesterday and found a surprising array of paper mache. A wonderful experience. We're so sorry that we didn't pay attention sooner so we might have seen the puppet films.
If you get a chance stop by to see the show. It's worth the trip. We took a few snaps to share with you.
