    tobia: Am floored to be included in the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum’s exhibition, “Ballpoint Pen Drawing Since 1950,” now on view until the 25th of August. If you are in the Connecticut area, be sure to check it out. The exhibition is described as follows: “The origins of the ballpoint pen go back to the late nineteenth century, but it was only after World War II that the technology was perfected and the ubiquitous everyday writing tool achieved commercial success. With the rise of anti-art movements such as Fluxus and Arte Povera, a number of notable artists made drawings using the ballpoint. The last decade has witnessed a steady increase in artists drawing with the pen, using approaches from the abject to the sublime. This exhibition is curated by Aldrich exhibitions director Richard Klein.” Artists exhibited: Rita Ackermann, Bill Adams, Alighiero Boetti, Dawn Clements, Russell Crotty, Jan Fabre, Alberto Giacometti, Joanne Greenbaum, Martin Kippenberger, Il Lee, and Toyin Odutola.

    1. SFAI Courtyard 

    2. Otis’ outdoor space.

    3. CCA’s Hooper complex and “courtyard”

    A cloudy day and perhaps image quality inequality take the blame for the extremes on display above. And, no doubt, the aesthetics of the art making facility foster the inspiration happening within it, but is there a set of guides for inspiring environments? I’m pretty inspired in the grey fortress at the bottom. Maybe I would start incorporating birds into my work if I was at Otis, who knows.
