A 5 year project of turning the book of Genesis into a graphic novel. Not a religious man, Crumb still treats the text with a incredible deal of respect. If you find it sacrilegious... well... he's didn't change anything... so...

Mirrors made out of rust, wood, and well... more mirrors - all which "reflect" you in real time using tiny motors and shadows. If you haven't seen his work, run there. If you have, you'll love a "non-reflective" piece called "X by Y".

I think he's hit or miss.. but in his first show since the NYC waterfalls, this one definitely hits. The shadow splitting on the first floor was fun; the "after image" on the second floor was beautiful once you figure out what's going on (stare directly at the metal ball, relax, and don't move your eyes).

Even though I know I won't fall to my eminent death, the water cooler still freaks me the f#@% out.... (follow the link in the last sentence for an education).

Why are simple black and white photos from the late 70's on "The Top Five"? - because they are some of the best black and white photos I've ever seen. There's something so completely magical yet completely normal in these.
