I enjoy this blog a lot.
This is a working image for an upcoming painting. The portrait image is of JIllian Ann from some pictures we took about a year ago. She is a musician, model and entrepreneur.
About Boris Groys, I recently read an essay he contributed to the book on e-flux founder Anton Vidokle, as well as, a book he wrote for Afterall’s One Work series Ilya Kabakov: The Man Who Flew into Space from His Apartment. Both were very readable, so I got this little pamphlet from Hatje Cantz he wrote on Googling.
I cut and pasted this from the email they sent me except returning their hyperlink to a hyperlink (at the bottom).
