recently i learned there are entire online communities dedicated to archiving those patterns inside of envelopes that exist to obscure the information, so when you hold it up to light, you can't read the contents. people even make art out of it (creds in alt text)

#ArtnetNews: One woman made the discovery of a lifetime recently, unearthing a lost painting by American modernist Georgia O’Keeffe in her elderly aunt’s East Village closet. Now the work, Near Abiquiu, New Mexico I (1930), is heading to auction during Christie’s 20th Century Evening Sale on November 17 in New York. It’s expected to fetch around $3 million.

#ArtnetNews: Two months in, the art season in New York’s galleries has felt pretty tepid and low-stakes. Yes, there have been thrilling moments—Michael E. Smith’s enigmatic objects at Maxwell Graham, Jordan Wolfson’s dangerous japes at Gagosian—but the prevailing mood has been conservative, particularly when it comes to new art.

¡Es una obra maestra absoluta! Este aclamado cortometraje de stop-motion estrenado por el multipremiado estudio indio Studio Eeksaurus. Dirigido por el veterano de la animación Suresh Eriyat, este proyecto se ha convertido en uno de los hitos visuales más comentados del año por la fascinante forma en que fusiona la tecnología moderna, la conservación ambiental y el milenario arte de la alfarería. En lugar de moldear marionetas de plastilina convencionales, el equipo transfirió minuciosamente animaciones en 2D fotograma a fotograma hacia superficies de cerámica real utilizando esmaltes y calcomanías térmicas. Se requirieron ocho meses de arduo trabajo manual. Debido a la complejidad de alinear las piezas y a la forma en que el brillo del esmalte captura la luz con cada sutil movimiento, en las jornadas más productivas el equipo lograba avanzar apenas 2 o 3 segundos de metraje por día.

A new record was just set at #SothebysParis: Monet's exceptional 'Iris' painting is now the most valuable artwork ever sold at auction in France. After a thrilling, 45-minute bidding battle, this landscape from Monet's Giverny period achieved €50 million. It was the star lot of Le Temps Retrouvé: The Schlumberger Collection, a group of 20 modern and impressionist masterpieces. The Paris Sales continue tomorrow with Surrealism and Its Legacy and Modernités. Learn more at Sothebys.com.
