Art World Reality Show

Yes, it's true. Well, at least the try-outs are (judges not revealed)... But we will have to wait and see for the final show, coming on Bravo in 2010. 13 artists will compete for a gallery show, cash prize, and museum tour.

Did I mention there's a famous producer, too?

Sketchbook

I was rummaging through the closet and found a sketchbook and a few stray pages that I brought back from Dublin. I felt like sharing them today.

Live Sculpture

I must admit that I am stealing blog content. It's too good not to pass on! I just took a look at the UCD Arts Blog and found out about a project that sculptor Anthony Gormley created as a "living monument." For 100 days, 24 hours a day, one person each hour will take over the Fourth Plinth* in Trafalgar Square.... and it's all live on webcam.

*"From 1841 until 1999 there was nothing on the Fourth Plinth in the north-west of Trafalgar Square, and it was sometimes referred to as the 'empty plinth'. It is now the location for contemporary art works, commissioned specially from leading artists, which are housed on the plinth for a year or two each." Find out more about the Fourth Plinth here.
