I am deliriously happy today. Yes, that happy! Why? Because this arrived! The writing desk, that is. I bought the chair off eBay a few months ago for $60. The writing desk is another eBay buy – I’ve been hunting for something like this for a while now. We don’t have the money for lots of new furniture at the moment. So slowly, slowly I get the odd piece, usually secondhand off eBay. I love a good vintage find.

I’m one happy blogger

Anyone concerned with contemporary or post WWII art should get to Washington by Sept. 12 to see this exhibition. Yves Klein is an essential figure in post war art whose work resonates through much of what followed: happenings, performance (and films of performance), installations, minimal and conceptual art. For a current generation of young artists making their way in a world shadowed by the threat of environmental annihilation, his work will have particular resonance
