Side Tracked at the MoMA, Manhattan

"Drawings Without Paper"---This weekend I went to Manhattan to relax and escape before the grind of the final weeks of design. However there is no escaping beauty. At the MoMA I found hidden within the exhibits "Drawings withOUT Paper". These works were beautiful. None of the works were meant to be drawings without paper but they did achieve many of the same aesthetic qualities that the current exercise if attempting.

  1. great! those "drawings without paper" are very cool... the fabric (it looks like felt) seems nice and the barcode one is amazing.
    the other stuff, goes without saying, is a good thing to post as well... superstudio's stuff is pretty crazy but nice collages.
    thanks!
