Vija Celmins
Something made me think of Celmins' spiderwebs today. I'm reluctant to blog about her since they don't reproduce so well, but if you're near Pittsburgh, recent work can be seen at the Carnegie International through 1/11/09.

Thanks, what a treat to learn about this artist's work . Love the Big Sea#1 because it simply is as it is, no fan fare, just an average old common ocean. It trumps photo-realism.
She is amazing - glad you like these. Just home from studio and need ice cream!
I have seen some of her work in person and it is truly amazing. Thanks for the reminder.
Her work is sick! Yes, it's best to see it in person. & then you also get the pleasure of witnessing others approach & slowly discover it's done by hand.
