Beautiful photography by Teri Lyn Fisher. Such happy colours… Because sometimes, all I really want to do is look at pretty stuff…

I know I said that I was done with my Milan report… but the thing is – I lied! Well I thought I was done, but then I got a hold of these stunning press images of the magical installation by Paola Navone for Barovier&Toso and I simply had to share. Besides, this was one of my favourite installations in Milan, so all the more reason to post about it…

These images of kids playing and creating their own little worlds made me feel as though I was 10 years old again.
Bet you any money that you will smile at least once when looking at them…

Last weekend {14-16 May 2010}, Tate Modern hosted an event titled “No Soul For Sale – Festival of Independents” as part of the gallery’s 10th anniversary.

For this free arts festival, Tate Modern invited 70 of the world’s most innovative independent art spaces to take over the Turbine Hall. The festival filled the iconic space, as well as the Starr Auditorium, with an eclectic mix of cutting-edge arts events, performances, music and film.

No Soul For Sale is a festival that brings together the most exciting non-profit centres, alternative institutions, artists’ collectives and underground enterprises from around the world. The participants are encouraged to show whatever they choose, be it art, performance, video, publications, or simply themselves…

Wah-wah-wee-wah! {I hope everyone’s seen Borat, otherwise this catchphrase won’t mean anything to you…}

How awesome is this paper art by Simon Schubert?! Like totes! {apologies for using that word, but I couldn’t resist – all the cool kids are doing it and I’m just trying to keep up, ok?}

Seriously though, these amazing artworks make my sketch perspectives look as though I drew them with a foot. I think I need to learn some new presentation techniques…
