Herman Miller has a great new film series on their site called Why Design. Jory linked to one on Don Chadwick a few weeks ago.

I loved this one on Irving Harper, who creates amazing sculptures with paper.

If anyone needs an idea on what to get me for Christmas, I’d like a few Mitt Romney “Jobs” posters to put around my house.
Sold exclusively on MittRomney.com. No, seriously.

I’m drawn to Brett Armory’s work. They bring back memories I have from New York even though they’re based on photos he took around the Tenderloin district in San Francisco. It’s the darkness and grittiness.
When I think of San Francisco, I think of bright, colorful murals in the Mission district and the beautiful view from my mother-in-law’s house in Bernal Heights. This is not the San Francisco Armory is depicting. If you’ve ever been to the Tenderloin, Dave Chappelle is right when he said, “Ain’t nuthin’ tender ’bout that motherfucker. The opposite of tender.”

You dig all those kitschy, vintage graphics I sometimes post? Yeah, me too.
Moving forward, I’ll be posting them at their new home:
famousbutunknown.com/blog/
Famous But Unknown is the name of my ongoing series of posters and graphic t-shirts based on the vintage graphics I collect and scan and eventually sell at my online storefront, Stay Vigilant.
Enjoy.

By now every knows about the elderly parishioner in Spain who ruined a 19th century fresco.
To my eyes, it looks like Modigliani was hit in the head with a bat, drank a bottle of Jameson and then decided to paint an Ewok:

I love how the woman blames the priest for letting her “fix” the fresco. Nice, lady. Real classy. Jesus is going to remember that.
