Since 2012, Allan Amato has been taking photographs of artists, and asking to reinterpret the portraits in their medium of choice. This collaboration is not only unique because it deals with the way in which the photographer sees his subjects, but how the artists themselves interpret and deal with the portrait of themselves. The artists did not compose the photograph, they are just working from it. It’s a great project and one of those exhibitions that must be seen in person. This exhibition marks the final footage to complete a documentary on the project, and Baby Tattoo will release a book mid-exhibition. As quoted in the press release “Rarely are we given an opportunity to confront our perceptions of reality and self; this exhibition will illuminate the universal tension between the pursuit of our vision and the demands of a critical and implacable world.”

“Venture Bros. Season 3” print by Bill Sienkiewicz
This is just a fun print that I thought I would share. The Adult Swim shop has some pretty cool art prints for sale, but pretty much every time I make it over there the prints are sold out (like the Dethklok print I missed out on). So here is a new one that is still available. It’s a print for 3d Season of the Venture Bros. with the artwork done by Eisner Award Winning artist Bill Sienkiewicz. You can see that the print does a good job of looking like the box art for old video games as well. The print is 12″ x 13″ on uncoated 100# stock for $24. It doesn’t say that the print is limited, but you never know. And yes, it’s orange. A very bright orange. Not sure how long I could handle that.
