Creating the civic commons is the work of all of us. And with the challenges we face today, I can’t think of anything more urgent.

Sixteen bronze sculptures by MANOLO VALDES are currently on display along Broadway from Columbus Circle to 166th Street. Shown above are Dama II (2003) at Dante Park at 63rd Street and Reina Mariana (2005) at the south entrance to the 72nd Street subway station. The sculptures will be on exhibit until January 23, 2011. From nycgovparks.org: Manolo Valdes is one of the most important and respected Spanish artists working today. Best known for his passion for past masters from Zurbaran to Velazquez, Matisse to Lichtenstein, Valdes uses their work "as a pretext" ("como pretexto") to create an entirely new aesthetic object. For example, six massive sculptures entitled Reina Mariana, each over eight feet in height and weighing over two thousand pounds, depict Queen Mariana as immortalized by Velazquez. Four of these sculptures with their abstract and simplified forms will grace the famous city landmark, Columbus Circle, as well as two at the south entrance to the 72nd Street subway station. Also sited at the subway station is Odalisca, 2006, a sculpture whose subtle forms refer to works of Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso. Another highlight of the exhibition is the series of six monumental bronzes – all over 12 feet in height – depicting female heads, their calm facial composure and structured equilibrium offset rhythmically by dynamic ornamental head-pieces. The exhibition will also include the New York debut of Valdes' two equestrian sculptures Dama a caballo V, 2008 and Caballero V, 2008, which were inspired by Velazquez's seventeenth-century portraits.

Yarn Bombing has evolved and grown in popularity over the past few years. It's a great medium to spark interest and art conversations with kids.
~.:;:..~ Harmonic Chakra Yarn Bomb ~..:;:.~ This yarn bomb was created for a music festival in Michigan. 7 wheels, the 7 energy points within our bodymind. Each wheel with two hues of the particular color, to represent the light and dark within everything in existence. Blending of these 2 colors in 3 equal points within each wheel in representation of the mystical harmony of light and dark, good and evil. An asymetrical and balancing spectrum beaming out from both sides of the chakras.

Color climbing for the win.
I love the book ones (just because I love reading so much) It's actually pretty easy to do. It's just a simple folding technique. The displays just go on and on... I'll add more later.
Zillij 5 & 10 by Chris K Palmer, 2009, 16"; diameter. Cut on the Craft ROBO Pro and assembled by Jeffrey Rutzky. Video version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdSgu5UYkyI While teaching architecture at the University of Colorado–Boulder, Chris K Palmer developed Rhinoscripts to calculate intersecting “ribs.” Using several variables, such as material thicknesses, the script automatically generates vector-based files that, in turn, are used to drive CNC machines (laser and Craft ROBO cutters, 3-axis routers). Not only has Palmer expressed his favorite traditional Middle Eastern patterns, but he also has built, with his students, life-sized domed structures. All models assemble without external fasteners or adhesives, and use only the flat parts themselves, much like sliceforms. Creating forms using the box slot connection began with work by Akio Hizume, who wrote custom software to calculate patterns, as well as scale and life-sized towers.
