“The things that will destroy America are prosperity at any price, peace at any price, safety first instead of duty first, and love of soft living and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”–Theodore Roosevelt.
Herbert Bayer… Ripping.

Sophie Mörner, awesome swede, and publisher of Capricious has a cool show on at The Capricious Space called “IN REAL LIFE” .. Yesterday was the “I Heart Photograph” exhibit..Faxes were sent to Sophie’s space in Brooklyn by photographers and artists all around the world. (Mine apparently didn’t make it through!)
Love this quote from how the fax experiment panned out:
“the analogue world is complicated.”

Benbo George just updated his site the other day. I absolutely love his work. It’s like he’s channeling the spirit of Saul Bass’s late work into these collages.
