Photographs of dancers in motion stand in a crowded field, but these shots by Brian Kuhlmann really grabbed our attention. Initially, Brian was inspired by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill of 2010.
Using a few friends who were professional dancers, Brian photographed their motions in a way that seems like they’re underwater.

This is so beautiful.
Lots of works in progress at the moment, so I thought I’d post an old-ish one. This is from a drawing on location class I took at SVA last spring. My drawings follow the path of the Q train…above and below the street.
This is a beautiful series. I love these.

What was Brooklyn like in 1974?
Jeans were less skinny and more flare-like, but other than that, you can get a better look at these photos shot by Danny Lyon.
He spent two months in the summer of 1974 shooting daily life in Fort Green, Park Slope, Bushwick, Bedford-stuyvesant, and other neighborhoods.
Marina Abramovic meets Ulay
“Marina Abramovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again. at her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed ‘The Artist Is Present’ as part of the show, a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing it and this is what happened.”
“En los años 70, Marina Abramovic mantuvo una intensa historia de amor con Ulay. Pasaron 5 años viviendo en una furgoneta realizando toda clase de performances. En 1988, cuando su relación ya no daba para más, decidieron recorrer la Gran Muralla China, empezando cada uno de un lado, para encontrarse en el medio, abrazarse y no volver a verse nunca más. En 2010 el MoMa de Nueva York dedicó una retrospectiva a su obra. Dentro de la misma, Marina compartía un minuto en silencio con cada extraño que se sentaba frente a ella. Ulay llegó sin que ella lo supiera, y esto fue lo que pasó”
epic moment of connection in art happening here.
