ANSI artwork sales - one stop in the long-running effort to make a living off of digital art.

"Around the same time, Lora Ruffner decided to see if she could turn her artistic talent into a business."

That one time when Ulay stole a Carl Spitzweg from the Neue Nationalgallerie so he could use it as a backdrop of a family portrait. The story of the heist and the race to the Turkish family's house in Kreuzberg is great.

“Federalism is sacred… unless it’s violated in the most violent means. Then the federal government can do whatever it wants.”

The short, meaningless clips of #videoArt held at the Art Institute's Video Data Bank (https://www.vdb.org/titles/3-cars) - with their opaque viewing requests - makes me even more grateful for UbuWeb (https://www.ubuweb.com/ubu/).

Lots more can be written about Wendy Melvoin as the lead guitarist in The Revolution (fronted by Prince, obvs).

She had such an elevated power vibe on stage and worked with some other great artists like Meshell Ndegeocello.

Her embodied rhythm is visible in the "Raspberry Parade" video. And in the still below, we can also see Pat Smear (!) centered in the background - with great 1980s gender-bending all around.
