Art I'm Looking At: Found Art on the Playground (February 5, 2010)

More found art from the playground of my son's school. Beautiful.

Miscellaneous: Found Art

More found art. Patterns in the paint on the playground at my son's new school. These (oddly) are extremely reminiscent of some of the prints of Hideo Hagiwara, one of Japan's most respected modern printmakers. Actually, these are more boldly abstract than most of Hagiwara's work, but still, they are similar in feel. I am feeling inspired to do something--a painting or a print--based on these interesting pavement patterns.

More found art. The playground at my son's school was recently repainted--rather garishly, but the uprights of the basketball hoops and tetherball poles and the brightly painted surfaces create some interesting abstract compositions. Truly art all around.
