katy stone

i don't know what i was doing on the internet when i came across katy stone... but her 2D/3D paintings and installations (on plastic film or laser cut steel) are like 3D shadows... or maybe like a really cool version of those hologram pictures.

bauhaus - moma

i already posted about joseph and anni albers, but here are a few of the other artists pieces (some are not in the exhibit) that i loved as well.
(after taking 14 art history classes in undergrad - you'd think i'd remember some of these artists... but i don't.)

kurt kranz

laszlo moholy nagy

(i could have done an entire post about his work)

joost schmidt

andrea dezso

i also saw andrea dezso's work (tunnel books) at the slash paper exhibit at MAD museum, and they were so beautiful.
i didn't realize that i had seen her work previously at the pricked extreme embroidery exhibit (also at MAD) a couple of years ago.
more of her work here

georgia russell

i came across her work on stylesight the other day, and saw one of her pcs at the MAD MUSEUM slash paper exhibit (ny).  the books in the bell jars are amazing, and the cut book jackets are so intricate and detailed.  there's something so creepy but beautiful about these.

josef and anni albers

just went to the bauhaus exhibit at the moma (still haven't checked out tim burton) and it was really cool...
came across a few artists that i never really bothered looking into - two of them were josef & anni albers.
this isn't really my style, i feel like this is stuff that chris likes more, but i was really inspired by the pcs that i saw there.

josef albers:

working in fashion and looking at colors all the freaking time, i thought these color compositions were really unexpected and great together.
