That is, once you realize that the <em>real</em> art in this show is not the fabricated objects on display but Powhida’s watercolor text pieces that supplement them. Well-crafted and explicit in their intent, these paintings are polar opposites of the redundant, boringly vague artworks that they mock. They depict Powhida’s ideas as handwritten texts scrawled across a piece of notebook paper. The illusion is so satisfying, and the writing so intriguing, you hardly notice that what you are <em>really</em> looking at are representational watercolor paintings created with such care that it’s almost sentimental.</p> </blockquote> <p>via <a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://forwhenifeellikesharing.tumblr.com/post/50432667886/william-powhida-some-criteria-for-evaluation-2013" target="_blank">forwhenifeellikesharing</a></p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50432995734http://hydeordie.com/post/50432995734Tue, 14 May 2013 11:28:32 -0700ArtWilliam PowhidaTypographyIllustration<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/cee82a691f67bdc6eaaddeb3bbf32d7e/tumblr_mix5buJiKx1s76lxno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://edruscha.tumblr.com" target="_blank">Ed Ruscha</a> has a tumblr!</p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50379276784http://hydeordie.com/post/50379276784Mon, 13 May 2013 16:59:41 -0700ArtPaintingEd RuschaTumblr<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9acb6a9cdd0fe6b4b4814f0deb52d1fd/tumblr_mmrds5E6LF1qz849zo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.younesbabaali.com/en/" target="_blank">Younes Baba-Ali</a></p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50373477962http://hydeordie.com/post/50373477962Mon, 13 May 2013 15:43:17 -0700ArtSculptureNeonYounes Baba-Ali“According to the air bill slapped on the crate that arrived at Kennedy International Airport...http://hydeordie.com/post/50359502923http://hydeordie.com/post/50359502923Mon, 13 May 2013 12:38:19 -0700ArtBasquiatStealing Thieving<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f443e5fd2f23b1d2df702c4f6ec10683/tumblr_mmlmrsOPaX1qz849zo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.victoria-miro.com/artists/_13/" target="_blank">Conrad Shawcross</a> <em>Dark Heart </em>2007</p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50108151270http://hydeordie.com/post/50108151270Fri, 10 May 2013 13:11:52 -0700ArtSculptureInstallationNeonConrad Shawcross<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9f36d394a51063eb25ac2139c8b79ce3/tumblr_mmjz8hEX9f1qz849zo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.gagosian.com/artists/gregory-crewdson" target="_blank">Gregory Crewdson</a> <em>Untitled (North by Northwest)</em> 2004</p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50043464704http://hydeordie.com/post/50043464704Thu, 09 May 2013 15:45:53 -0700ArtPhotographyUrbanLandscapeGregory Crewdson<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0f80cf6c67b3d583088f9cad8eb5a23a/tumblr_mmjprjKe5j1qz849zo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://bethgalton.com/project/cut-food-07/" target="_blank">Beth Galton</a> <em>Cut Food</em></p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50028481402http://hydeordie.com/post/50028481402Thu, 09 May 2013 12:21:00 -0700Beth GaltonArtPhotographyStill LifeFoodLast mealNot even kiddingSorry not Sorry<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/50939259fc9451984115cd840518f796/tumblr_mmjn47GppC1qz849zo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.lehmannmaupin.com/artists/do-ho-suh" target="_blank">Do Ho Suh </a></p>http://hydeordie.com/post/50025148587http://hydeordie.com/post/50025148587Thu, 09 May 2013 11:24:07 -0700ArtDo Ho SuhSculptureInstallationFrieze<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0e469053a57dc9073fa8ff106783ed73/tumblr_mmg335bK2C1qz849zo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://fallenfruit.org/media/maps-2/" target="_blank">Fruit of LACMA</a></p>http://hydeordie.com/post/49875070284http://hydeordie.com/post/49875070284Tue, 07 May 2013 13:18:41 -0700ArtFruitLos AngelesLACMAFallen FruitVIDEO: ABBA Museum Opens in Stockholm | Artinfo: This is really important to me.

In that cranky review, however, I didn’t have room to mention that, among the talentless couturier copycats of punk who dominate the show, there are also a few designers, such as Rei Kawakubo  and Martin Margiela, who are genuine artistic geniuses. The thing is, I think that by including them the curators are guilty of that heinous sin that art historians call pseudomorphism<strong>: Imagining that because two artworks look the same, they also mean the same thing and play the same role in our culture.</strong> When  Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook wore a Union Jack t-shirt in the late 1970s (left) his brash punk gesture meant something utterly different than when Rei Kawakubo, a Japanese intellectual, reworked the British flag (right) into runway fashion in 2006. Ditto for punk’s rebellious repurposing of junk and the Maison Martin Margiela’s thoughtful recycling of consumer goods in the fabulous Artisanal line it launched a few years ago. <em>(Left, courtesy the Metropolitan Museum of Art, © Dennis Morris; right, courtesy the Metropolitan Museum of Art, photo by Catwalking)</em></p> <p><br/><em><span>For a full visual survey of past Daily Pics visit <a href="http://blakegopnik.com/archive" target="_blank">blakegopnik.com/archive</a>.
