Something old, something new, something lovely, something true
Posted by Charles II on November 19, 2011
One of the things I love best about Avedon Carol’s Sideshow (nor let us forget Shrimplate) is the profusion of beautiful things she brings to our attention. For example:
This is a paper sculpture: “a book carved so that a bunch of warriors seemed to be leaping (or in some cases galloping) off a movie screen straight into a startled audience. One of the audience members, if you looked closely, was wearing a tiny photo of the face of mystery writer Ian Rankin.”

That’s lovely. And the sentiment of the artist — that libraries be preserved, not cut — is even lovelier.

Yes. Avedon has an astonishing taste in art. It helps me to put up with those of her commenters who lack any graces.
