Fontana Mix for February 2012

Tad Spurgeon – Living Craft
Tad Spurgeon’s book is an instant classic – if you are a painter and have any care about the craft of your work, you need his book. It is without a doubt the most comprehensive collection of serious information about (oil) paint and materials I’ve ever seen written. Don’t even bring up Ralph Meyer – this is the next level.

Moss is closing in NYC
This sucks – although Moss isn’t really closing, it’s transforming. But basically it’s closing. The most amazing design goods store in the world has had a great run of almost 20 years. That has to be some kind of lifetime in SOHO.

I’ll forever be grateful for the Moss store if for nothing else introducing me to Tejo Remy’s You Can’t Lay Down Your Memory. (pictured)

Chris Burden – Beam Drop
Made by a friend of mine here in the city. Spend the five minutes and watch this. It’s a quick Document about the making of the Beam Drop in Antwerp.
