Walton Ford

Walton Ford
I caught this great segment of PBS’s Art21 series: Humor. The last artist they focused on was Walton Ford and I was really taken by his masterful watercolor and prints!

Blending depictions of natural history with political commentary, Ford’s meticulous paintings satirize the history of colonialism and the continuing impact of slavery and other forms of political oppression on today’s social and environmental landscape. Each painting is as much a tutorial in flora and fauna as it is as a scathing indictment of the wrongs committed by nineteenth-century industrialists or, locating the work in the present, contemporary American consumer society.

Key to the City

Paul Ramírez Jonas' Key to the City
Something very cool a friend of ours is participating in. Sounds like tons of fun!

Paul Ramírez Jonas has created a Key to the City that is not only a symbolic award, but also a functional key—opening spaces across all five boroughs of New York City. This Key to the City is intended for everyday citizens, who will award one another the key for reasons large and small. Once in hand, the key launches a citywide exploration of back doors, front gates, community gardens, graveyards, and museums that suggests that the city is a series of spaces that are either locked or unlocked.
