“To see the sections of the tree is to wonder how it grew, how it lived and how it died,” said artist Dennis Lin. “I’ve cataloged this tree out of my own curiosity and to make it accessible for others to question how this organism came into being.”
I like the idea, but knowing so much Hirst makes this project something totally different than you’s probably intended. I would have liked it better if the branches would still be attached; now it just looks like meat. Especially in the warehouse like that.

Metal. But stacked and rectangular as wood. But reflective like water. And imposing as fire. Yet enough metal to have the solidity of earth. All in one great piece of art (or in any great environment of your life) there are the five elements.

Installation view 01 / 03, Digital Image, C-print, 45 × 30cm
The images in this series are digital renderings, which were created using image references from gallery documentation and found textures. The 3d objects (neon bulbs, euro palettes, stackable plastic chairs, rectangles with car paint) were modeled or found online (digital readymades).The assets were placed in a generic white cube scene and randomly positioned and aligned with a script. The series is a documentation of an installation in an architectural space, neither of which physically existed. (via Installation View / anfischer.com)

Banksy Interview + Video
Banksy has done an interview with the Sunday Times, which is an interesting read:
“I have a large collection of famous art at home, but they’re all fakes. I make them myself. If I like a picture I grab a photo, project it up and paint it. Sometimes I change the colours to fit with the curtains. I do it partly because I’m tight and partly because if the Basquiats and Picassos in the sitting room were real I’d be too scared to ever leave the house.
“I don’t make as much money as people think. The commercial galleries that have held exhibitions of my paintings are nothing to do with me. And I certainly don’t see money from the T-shirts, mugs and greeting cards. My lawyer calls me ‘the most infringed artist alive’ and wants me to do something about it. But if you’ve built a reputation on having a casual attitude towards property ownership, it seems a bit bad-mannered to kick off about copyright law.”
Read the interview and cannot wait to see the movie.

This is something essential to art: reception is never its goal. What counts for me is that my work provides material to reflect upon. Reflection is an activity.Thomas Hirschhorn (via maybeitsallok)
