Archive for the ‘friends’ CategoryCarrie Schneider @ the MCA!Tuesday, December 15th, 2009While I am trying to keep this blog strictly Biggie-related, I just have to post something about my friend, Carrie Schneider. You see, she is an amazing artist (my other post about her is here), and has her latest work for viewing at the MCA in Chicago. She is the featured artist for this month’s 12 x 12 exhibition! Read a bit here. Then go!! Handmade Nation BookSunday, October 26th, 2008Last night we hopped up to Milwaukee to meet friends for dinner then stopped by Cafe Lulu in Bayview. Lulu was hosting a book release party for Handmade Nation: The Rise of DIY, Art, Craft and Design. Co-author Faythe Levine is very active in the craft community – organizing Art vs. Craft, running her shop Paper Boat Boutique and finishing up her documentary (which the book is based on and due to be released next year).
The book discusses the ‘new wave of craft’ with interviews from artists and crafters across the country. I haven’t read it from front to back yet, but I am very impressed so far.
