Barry Anderson. Op Eyes, a single-channel HD Video, was commissioned by the Nerman Museum at Johnson County Community College. It’s on view in the New Media Room until February 1, 2009. It took me a couple of looks at Barry’s website to find the thumbnails for his other videos. It’s a little bar immediately under the image, for those as prone to overlooking the obvious as I.

Have any of our regular readers been down to see the first Prospect New Orleans? It’s “the largest biennial of international contemporary art ever organized in the United States, opened to the public on November 1, 2008 in museums, historic buildings, and found sites throughout New Orleans”, if you haven’t heard about it. I intend to get down there later this year, but right now I’m curious if anyone has seen it and would like to comment.

A Bamileke wine vessel from William Itter’s personal collection of African Pottery. The last time I was at the Indiana University Art Museum, there were a number of these vessels on display in their African collection. Anyone know if that’s still there?
