Leo Babauta:
In this post I’ll tell you (briefly) why I chose veganism and how it is the diet I believe is most in line with minimalism.
I agree.
Turn by Margaret Roberts at Factory 49. God she is good.
The Bauhaus Chessmen, designed by Josef Hartwig. Incredible.
Here she is, Marlene Sarroff, grinning in front of her work, Disruptive Elements at F49. Oh, how we laughed that Marlene had hatched an evil plan to turn the world black. It was all very funny, until we got home……. alone…….. and it was dark……..
I’ve linked to Karen Schifano before, but here’s a more substantial post I’ve just written for Minimalissimo. I stand by what I’ve written at the end of that post very much:
There is something so refreshing and minimal about using something so mundane and inexpensive like tape in such an effective way.
I got all but one right.
Update: I got the day bed wrong. I swear I saw something identical last time I went to Ikea.
Primary Structures was the name of a very famous minimalist art exhibit from 1966, featuring work by some of my favorite artists, including Robert Smithson, Carl Andre, Dan Flavin and The Master.
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to settle on the name “Primary Structures” for this blog (after having borrowed Chris Bowler’s for the interim). Expect more of the same, more or less.
Fun fact: Pineapple Park was nearly named Primary Structures.
A nice little article, which I pretty much fully agree with.
Loving Karen Schifano’s installation work. The piece above is titled The Bottom Fell Out. Very playful and clever.
