The exhibitions at The Drawing Center in Soho are always amazing and the show that is currently on is particularly so. If you think of drawing as being something done with pencil and paper, this show will open your eyes and mind to a new range of possibilities outside that single dimension.

On my way there I noticed hanging in the windows of one of the Soho boutiques, some of the most amazing art dolls I've ever seen. The artist apparently works in clothing and still lifes as well. The artists name is Manon Gignoux and lives in Paris, but there's really nothing much on the web. So I will for now have to content myself with the work I saw in the store. There were also still lifes in old suitcases, a salt and pepper shaker wrapped in sweater like garb, a clothed bowl and other beautiful objet d'art.
