Tonight I received an email invite to a reception for artist Tim Moore for 100 Buddhas. I couldn’t locate a website, but I now see that he had a show at Farm Gallery in Wellfleet this summer. I blogged about the gallery earlier in the season, but I totally missed Moore’s work. In any case, his Buddhas are now hanging at Pod, a small home accessories shop in Brookline Village. Looks worth checking out. There’s a reception tomorrow night, Tuesday, Feb. 2nd, 6pm to 8pm.

A few years ago I discovered Rio de Janeiro artist Beatriz Milhazes. Her work was hanging in a living room featured in a glossy mag (perhaps Elle Decor). I perused her work online but it simply wasn’t in the budget. Seems she’s done a lot since then. In addition to her paintings, which are similar in style, but more vivid and hard-edged, there’s an amazing mobile installation and some public works. Most of these are through the James Cohan Gallery in NYC; some are earlier works from the Stephen Friedman Gallery, also in NYC. Feast your eyes. . .

The ubiquitous pouf. They’re everywhere. Moroccan-style poufs, knitted poufs, even wire poufs (though not sure those are actually poufy). I finally purchased one for myself. It’s silver metallic, and sits in front of the white sofa with the gray ikat pillows, which sits in front of my white bed, which sits in front of an accent wall covered with a white wallpaper with silver metallic circles. Seems stylish, right? Guess who hates the pouf? He thinks it looks like a giant, shiny soccer ball.
Here are enough photos of gorgeous rooms to prove that the pouf really is at the height of fashion.

When textile designer Seema Krish, whose work is helping to revitalize crafts in her native India, learned that I had studied Indian art in grad school, she suggested I have a look at contemporary artist Alexander Gorlizki. Mughal miniatures, with a twist!
