“A Product of Design” Opening in LA
September 22, 2011
Société Perrier / Function + Form = A Product Of Design
September 9, 2011
“What is the dividing line between a work of art and a commercially designed product? When does something cross the line between aesthetically satisfying and pragmatically plausible? Where do form and function meet, and which should take precedence? These are just a few of the questions that are entertained — if not exactly answered — by A Product Of Design. This show, sponsored by Scion and curated by Gluekit, takes a look at the work of nine different artists (Or are they designers? There are those bothersome distinctions mucking things up again.) who routinely cross the lines between passion and product.” —Jim Allen @ Société Perrier

Images of Gluekit’s installation at Faesthetic’s first LA curated show, This Must Be The Place, at the SCION Space gallery in Culver City. Featuring the work of Gluekit, Matt Curry, Maxwell Loren Holyoke-Hirsch, Skullphone, Damien Correll, Dan Funderburgh, Joel Speasmaker & Jemma Hostetler. The exhibition features nine American artists from the Faesthetic family who represent the diverse styles appearing in the magazine, and is comprised of art centered around a theme of “Home,” and loosely limited to a 2 color palette, just like an issue of Faesthetic.

Hey, Cut It Out!
March 15, 2009
Last night we attended the opening of Cut It Out, a great new show full of scissor-friendly magic at Open Space in Beacon, New York in the very beautiful Hudson Valley. The show was curated by the fantastically prodigious Mike Perry, who coincidentally also has a solo show, Patterns Found in Space, at Giant Robot in New York. Lots to check out! Cut It Out is chock full of work by great folks like Maya Wild, Damien Correll, Wyeth Hansen, Garrett Morin, Anna Wolf, Jim Datz, and loads of other talented paper fiends. We were thrilled to contribute some work too. The show is up until April 5, and makes a great destination for a day trip!
Take a Note!
January 5, 2009
Back in September, we were thrilled to be asked to participate in a giant yellow sticky project by the kind folks of Elsewhere. Their project was a collaborative poster campaign that used the motif of stickies, created by various graphic designers and studios, to paste up design across London during the 2008 London Design Festival. The limited edition and in many cases completely unique posters were free for the collecting by intrepid festivel goers. The Elsewhere site has a photo set of the posters in situ.
Our contribution was a set of neon green stenciled “Stick Together” stickies, a hand-numbered edition of twenty. You can see one in the snapshot above of one of the site installation of the project, taken at the Design Museum, surrounded by contributions by other participants!

Back in the Day (But Not Too Far) : Ken Meier
December 31, 2008
One of the fun things we did this year was attend the 2008 Yale MFA Graphic Design thesis show, something we try to see each and every year. It’s always a pleasure to see new and exciting work, and this year offered plenty of inspiration. Here’s a snapshot of some of Ken Meier’s work from the show– good stuff!
