Marcel Dzama

Just a note to any New-York-based readers: Go see Marcel Dzama's spooky drawings and dioramas at the David Zwirner gallery in Chelsea. They feel like fairy-tales gone wrong, with 1940's women, hangings, naked people and trees with heads. ("When you're alone in the woods, you always see faces,'' the Canadian artist has said.) Go to the exhibit; you will love, I promise.
(P.S. Here and here are interviews with Dzama if you're in a reading mood.)

  4. I'm so going to have to check this out this weekend!
    Also, I totally missed your comments on my blog about meeting up! I can't check my gmail at work because The Man blocks it. But I have to work til 7 tonight anyway, so it wouldn't have worked out anywho. But next time, for sure.
    I seriously cannot believe you haven't set foot on in the subway in 4 years too! I take it when it rains or when I'm going somewhere that's not walkable. Or..if I'm super drunk and willing to pay for a cab...which is increasingly often..
