(This is the third time I've done this post. Have I mentioned how much I hate Typepad's new interface?) Anyhoo, there's a new video interview with Jen Stark, a paper artist whose work has been featured everywhere but here. On her site, there's also a brief studio tour which shows her process. I can only imagine how many X-acto blades she goes through.
And speaking of artists featured everywhere but here, Peter Callesen is exhibiting at the Perry Rubenstein Gallery, 534 W. 24th St., here in NYC. If you're in the area, don't miss this show. It's only on through January 17th.
