JAPAN Japanese artist Mozu makes incredible, mini JAPAN Japanese artist Mozu makes incredible, miniature dioramas with tiny, winking electronic devices; their latest piece is The Secret Base of Kubito, a tiny workroom hidden behind an electrical outlet. Mozu says of it, "This work, which was born from the delusion that 'If I'm small, don't make a secret base in the wall', and the wifi router that flashes with a glowing TV are all handmade miniature works." @mozu_world
WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE ARTISTS Bob and Roberta Smith WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE ARTISTS Bob and Roberta Smith brought 'Art Amnesty' to the MoMa PS1. "Why are some people artists while others are not? Was Joseph Beuys an idiot when he said everyone is an artist? Do artists think they are a cut above the rest of us? Are the arts a good in themselves, or is it much, much, more complicated than that?" -The Smiths Reposted from @artlogx

The magazine chose Sterne based on a body of work she completed in the 1950s that focused on the anthropomorphic qualities of machines. This exhibition features all seven paintings, which have never been shown together outside John Deere World Headquarters in Moline, Illinois. A brochure accompanying the exhibition will feature an essay by Shaina Larrivee, the director of the Hedda Sterne Foundation. Hedda Sterne: Imagination and Machine is organized by Assistant Curator Jared Ledesma.
