Glossy. In Profile.

Another inventive cover from Volkskrant magazine. This one's a joint effort by photographer Luka Gobel with post production by Jan Hibma. Brilliant, if slightly disturbing.

Good Art #27. Self Portrait at Jake's Yesterday & Today.

I know very little about Dave Muller, but I love his paintings, particularly the musically inspired ones. I'm of the opinion that you can never go wrong with a mirror ball; they scream party and disco. Dave's large mirror balls are clever portraits, in that they reveal little about the sitter as they loom large overhead. I'm intrigued by his compositions, the displaced gallery installation and the elegant simplicity that makes me want one.

Good Art #26. The 387 Houses of Peter Fritz.

One of my favourite biennale experiences is the inspirational 4th Berlin Biennale held in 2006 curated by Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni and Ali Subotnick. Unless my mother wins Lotto, I'll not be going to Venice Biennale this year, but it's terrific to know that those going will get to experience The 387 Houses of Peter Fritz (via DesignBoom), a highlight of both biennales. Meticulously created by Austrian insurance clerk Peter Fritz using scraps of cardboard, paper and other refuse, this astounding collection was discovered by Oliver Croy in a junk store in the 1990s. While the various buildings are representations of architectural styles rather than being based on actual structures, the resulting installation is nothing short of gob-smacking. I was so impressed back in 2006 that I bought the book Sondermodelle.
