I have been brought to frothing, maddened rage by the price of a chair.

How much would you pay for the experience of being a lightbulb in an Ikea lampshade? Or to sit in a laundry hamper. The interior-of-a-picnic-basket lifestyle.

If you answered TWELVE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY UNITED STATES DOLLARS, you are on my hit list, and I shall be throwing you in a lake full of shrieking eels.

Just admit you like sculpture and stop pretending it's furniture, mother of god. Buy art! I don't care! I love it when rich people buy art! But wow at what price tag does it cease to be a chair and become a mixed media piece?

(also okay yes, I like it as art. it's a very pretty chair-shaped sculpture that I would be terrified to ever sit in)

Artemest Galleria ~ 11/12/2022

Today I went to Artemest Galleria, a small gallery space amongst many others in Chelsea, NYC. Although from the outside looking in, this space seems almost barren with its open plan and all-white walls and ceilings, I was drawn into this particular gallery when I saw the large, interestingly warped words pasted onto the modular stand-alone walls. (As a communication design major, I am a sucker for eye-catching text treatment.) I walked into the space to read the words which were lit up from below, making each small wall segment appear to be almost floating. I expected the text to be about the current exhibition being shown, which was called "Blow," and was a collaboration between an Italian glass company and a Caribbean artist named Bradley Theodore. But upon actually reading the paragraphs, they appeared to be repetitious, artsy descriptions of the gallery itself. I am inclined to believe that they do not change from exhibition to exhibition, so considering these walls are most of what you can see from the outside looking into the gallery, I presume the gallery front will appear the same to passersby even if the artwork inside changes. If this is the case, I believe it could discourage patrons to become repeat visitors.

The only work actually related to "Blow" that I could see upon walking through the gallery door was a low-hanging chandelier in the corner which was adorned with many beautiful glass pineapples. I appreciated how I could walk right up to the lit-up fixture and appreciate its details and the shadows it cast on the wall. It left me wanting to discover more glass pieces in the collection. As I walked through the space I found that the artworks were displayed on the back of the scattered white walls. I found this to be an odd choice, as the artwork felt less like it was on display for the public and more like it was something hidden that must be found. But I did enjoy knowing that the farther back I walked the more beautiful glass pieces I would see.

Since most of the pieces featured mirrors and/or light, and the sole fact that they were made out of a reflective material, to begin with, not only were the pieces themselves interesting but so were the shapes and patterns they reflected onto their surrounding surfaces. I wonder if they were actually facing the windows if the natural light would cause this aspect to change throughout the day. Or perhaps the curators' purpose for not having it face this unpredictable light source was so that they could control where/how the shadows and reflections landed in relation to the pieces.

Just when I thought I'd reached the end of "Blow" I passed through a hallway near the gallery desk and had my eyes drawn to the left by a mysterious neon light source coming from another room. I walked into the pink and blue portion of the space to see a minimalist, contemporary display that highlighted a large and colorful glass skull as the centerpiece. Other works featuring skull imagery were hung up on the walls of the small room, but the neon lights emitted such strong colors that it would be impossible for me to know the true nature of all these pieces, no matter how closely I looked at them. I understand this to be an artistic choice, however, and I appreciate it.

Stepping back outside of the small room there was what appeared to be a mock-dining room setup. I was a bit confused about whether or not this portion of the gallery had anything to do with the "Blow" exhibition or not. Although there were some artistic mirrors with cultural imagery featured on one of the walls of this display, I came to my own conclusion that it was a separate section of the space not meant to correlate with the previous rooms I'd visited. Perhaps it was just meant to be a formal-looking lounge area for visitors. Was it a permanent part of Artemest Galleria? Was it a space to show off other pieces for sale from the Italian company it worked with? There was no text/labels indicating exactly what the purpose of this out-of-place room was. It was attached to a back patio, which I went onto and which appeared to be an extra random space that simply came with the place. I think it would be great to include sculpture works that could stand up to the outdoors to have a reason for visitors to go out there and to be able to give more artists a space to display their work.

There were a few things that surprised me about my experience at this gallery. From the expectations that came from a title as sexually implicit as "Blow," to the work being not sexual in nature at all, to the small journey it was to find all the pieces in the space, to the confusion about which sections were connected and which were not... Overall, I think there are a couple things I would change about the Artemest Galleria experience just to give viewers a more clear storyline/experience of the artwork. But as for the exhibition itself, I thought the Bradley Theodore work was beautiful, and its maximalist style contrasted so much against the minimalist space. The majority of my time was spent just looking closely at all the details of the gorgeous glasswork.

RR126 Radiofonografo — Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for Brionvega (1965)

Here’s another one for the wish list. Brionvega reissued the RR126 Radiofonografo (now the RR226). It’s always great when companies restore or reissue classics like this. Anyway, it’s now available in walnut, orange, red and white. I’d get one in walnut if I had $24,390 (AUD) to spare! I love how ridiculously happy it looks! ^_^
