I'm sorry I'm not sure I am understanding this, the show starts on Saturday but the preview/price list goes out on Monday? So there is no opportunity to purchase anything till then?

As bad as this looks, I know my wife and I are going to be addicted. www.bravotv.com/work-of-art/videos/the-next-great-artistBravo’s latest stroke on the reality canvas brings Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner Sarah Jessica Parker and her production company, Pretty Matches, together with the Emmy-nominated Magical Elves (Top Chef, Project Runway) and Eli Holzman, to produce Work of Art: The Next Great Artist, an hour long creative competition series among contemporary artists. Work of Art: The Next Great Artist will bring together fourteen aspiring artists to compete for a solo show at a nationally recognized museum and a generous cash prize. Hosting this colorful new series is art enthusiast China Chow. She will serve on the judging panel alongside art luminaries Bill Powers, a New York Gallery owner and literary art contributor, Jerry Saltz, current art critic for New York Magazine, and Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn, esteemed curator and owner of Salon94 gallery. World-renowned art auctioneer Simon de Pury adds his voice of experience as a mentor to the contestants. In each episode, contestants are faced with the challenge of creating unique pieces in a variety of mediums such as painting, sculpture, photography, collage and industrial design. The weekly assignments are exciting, original and will challenge the artists' to push the limits of their technical skills and creative boundaries. Completed works of art will be appraised by our panel of top art world figures alongside a new celebrated guest judge every week. Through a gallery showing at the end of each challenge, these industry select dictate which artists have successfully mastered the subject matter and creation of their piece, as well as whose concept leaves the greatest impact.

LOVE this installation by Argentinean artist, Leandro Erlich! From Make: Online's website - tinyurl.com/2v4qsmf"Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich created this installation, simply called The Swimming Pool, for The 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art in Kanazawa, Japan. A 10cm layer of water over a piece of glass separates above from below."

Dear Euro, I know the economy has more serious issues to fret about but please do not fall any further, as this prevents me from buying art from the US (or at least it should), and all the unpurchased prints and pieces are already haunting me in my sleep.

yeah, the weakening of the Pound and the Euro against the dollar sucks right now. Definetally makes purchases much harder. I remember the days years ago when it was like $2 to the £1. I wish I was buying originals around that time!

Is it me or does it seem like when you are in a "not buying" phase, that more things that you want come up for sale? I know I could buy stuff all the time if money wasn't an issue but it is. There are about 5 pieces right now that I'm struggling over just adding one. And Geddes's small cosmonaut didn't help much either

I saw this today and thought it was fantastic... "legendary LA graffiti writer, publisher and activist, named Tony Quan, aka TEMPTONE. Tony was diagnosed with ALS in 2003, a disease which has left him almost completely physically paralyzed… except for his eyes. This international team is working together to create a low-cost, open source eye-tracking system that will allow ALS patients to draw using just their eyes." www.eyewriter.org/

Surprised that when I finally read the part of the ESPN magazine where it lists everyone who worked on the magazine to see that James Jean, Sam Weber, and Will Barras were on there as illustrators. Also recognized Hellovon's work.

I have been thinking after having a good browse at all members Outstanding and Amazing collections is how the heck do you all manage to buy and pay for these pieces?? just buying one artist original would max my C-card up in one swoop also if my wife knew she would pack my bags for me and leave them on the front lawn for when i got home from work Lol. I have very large and very greens eyes right now, you sure are lucky people.
