Lost and found

For anyone who spent time looking for Atelier van Lieshout’s installation Darwin in the Christchurch Square at the opening weekend of Scape, (“That it over there?” “Nope.” “Maybe round the back?” “Don’t see it.”) or tried to find it on their website, you can catch some pics and commentary by artgirl on watchthisscape. It’s also worth picking your way back through past entries. Most of them are pretty funny and it’s more than you’re going to get from the official Scape site - unless watchthisscape is one in deep cover - in which case we are in awe.

You can find stuff in a similarly gleeful and irreverent tone at thepaintandbake blog from Auckland. Who said art can’t be fun? No one under 30.
