  1. Dziś rocznica urodzin Sol LeWitta (1928–2007), amerykańskiego artysty konceptualnego i minimalisty. Znany z „wall drawings” tworzonych z instrukcji oraz geometrycznych struktur. Zrewolucjonizował myślenie o sztuce: tu pomysł mógł ważniejszy być niż wykonanie. (fot. Wikipedia) #SolLeWitt #sztukakonceptualna #minimalizm

  2. I ended up joining for this #LupeFiasco x #MIT art tour - his project #GHOTIING is site specific - he wrote and recorded songs on site and about several sculptures displayed on campus. You can listen to the songs on the linked site. Like plein air painting compared to a location, you get quick notes about what the artist noticed. The tour also got us in to the #SolLewitt installation that is normally off limit to the general public.

    I got sunburned forearms biking to campus, though. Oops.

  3. I visited MIT and Harvard a few days ago. I aspire to be a masters student at Media Lab one day. It was neat seeing the Sol Lewitt at MIT, and the Argo floats.
    I have always wanted to see the Blaschka creations and they truly are stunning. Created to help botanists study all the plants in the world and have them always be in bloom , they are made of glass with some wire and a little paint here an there... but pretty much all glass. And they made them with oil powered lamps with foot powered bellows to boost up the flame. Perhaps some of the most impressive glass objects commissioned over the course of 50 years from father and son.
    I timed my visit to align with summer, when campus feels different and most of the faculty I want to talk to are out of town traveling. I gotta return when things start back up.
    Big thanks to my friend Anna at Harvard for hosting and giving me a little dog walking tour of Harvard.

  4. How adding two Sol LeWitt wall drawings to our lobby not only changed its feel but also built community through making art together. #SolLeWitt #ContemporaryArt #ConceptualArt #UniversityMuseums

  5. My latest chapbook/zine: Complete Incomplete Cubes (after Sol Lewitt) contains all 4096 incomplete (plus "blank" and complete) cubes on 16 pages. Let me know if you'd like one and I'll mail a copy to you!
