Agata Olek’s artwork – gallery

My Slavic soul simply couldn’t resist not to post a gallery of images with crocheted artworks by amazing Polish artist Agata Olek. I’ve found Agata’s works thanks to New York based designer, photographer and blogger See Ming Lee aka SML…

SML has made a great blog post on Agata’s 100% Acrylic Art Guards at 13th Annual DUMBO Art Under the Bridge Festival during October in New York City… Don’t miss it! …and don’t you dare to miss his coverage of Diane Eng’s Fairytale Fashion Collection Debut at Eyebeam in February…

Stoll & Wachall duo enjoying visual kinetics

Back to the Platform of Young Choreographers! I still have some unfinished thoughts on stuff I saw back than…

While I was at the presentation of video installation with excerpts of dance piece MISCHAderFALL, choreographed by Bernard Baumgarten and re-mixed by video artists Stoll & Wachall because of the atmospheric mood and drone sounds I had a re-re-re-thinking echo several days after I saw it.
