edit from andrew's rendering








i don't know what to add on the first one~~~opinions?
just edited some people on the first render as Prof. Wilson requested.

Modified Logo


Any more suggestions?
I could also do one with blodgett in the background. Would that be better? I'll put it up next.

Leona Drive Project + Laundromat File

The Leona Drive Project

Site specific projects by artists in six bungalows slated for destruction in Toronto-- all located on Leona Drive. The exhibition took place in October, but the website mentions a symposium in March. Under the methodology section of the site, the project/symposium are self-described as "concerned with questions of site, liminality, the interstitial nature of suburban existence, architecture, taste, memory, ennui, white flight, emigration, development and the future of neighborhoods."

An ABD cousin to KK Projects and Project Row House? Perhaps.

The Laundromat Flat File
Other Inspiration... thinking about the gallery, the business, the counter? possible evolution of baby's windows: safe deposit boxes? flat files? library card catalogs? imagine the curatorial possibilities!

Ida Appelbroog Room within a Room

Check out NYTimes article today about this wonderful artist - Ida Appelbroog - and the description of her transluscent drawings hanging as shingles on the room within a room structure in her art installation at Hirth and Zwirner. we should take a classtrip to NYC to see this and other art exhibits. Anyway- good idea for room within a room- even the psychology behind it. Maybe students that use it ould make transluscent drawings that we post/hang.
