Apologies to those of you still in your boxers, because this is going to be brief:
- ArtDaily.org reports that two new works are headed to Richmond to join the collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. One is by William Wylie, an associate professor of photography at UVA—an image drawn from Carrara, his series on the marble quarry in Italy that gave up the raw material for the Pantheon and Michaelangelo’s "David," among other structures.
A trailer for Wylie’s Carrara film.
- Elsewhere, UVA grads are finding new and compelling ways to motivate you! For instance, there’s David Swanson, who dug up a few modern war analogies during an Avatar screening. And then there’s Karsten Nohl, who…er, possibly cracked the GSM algorithm and now knows everything about your cell phone?
