Eep! Long time, no new content! I have an entry about the figure almost ready to go, but I wanted to share that there's a new reality show dealing with art called Work of Art. Again, yes, it's reality show, and a competition one as well, but so far that has been some really interesting, progressive, and modern art being produced. One of my favorite blogs, Tom and Lorenzo, has already started recapping the episodes.

After I've watched the first episode I'll probably discuss it a little bit here as well, but in the mean time, if you do decide to check it out, catch how many times you dismiss or adore a piece of art purely on gut reaction, and then reassess it concerning technicality and artistic merit the art actually provides (or doesn't). This is a good exercise in learning how to also view art on an objective level, which is something I want to explore in this blog to great length.
