Meanwhile: More Barackist creativity to come…
Posted Under: America,Artists,Politics,The Designed Life,Update
As we know, not everybody sees Obama as the antichrist. So here’s a more prObama bit of news following up on the subject of the candidate as muse (per April 13, 2008 Consumed):
The Obey blog announces Manifest Hope:
It’s a new Obama art contest for 2D and 3D art, from painting to photography to sculpture. The winners will be shown at the Manifest Hope Gallery online and in Denver during the Democratic convention alongside works from dozens of established and influential artists.
And, via this meditation in The Stranger on the Obama-as-muse phenomenon, I am now aware of a blog dedicated to the subject: The Obama Art Report. Worth a look.
Not sure if there’s any scripture linking the rapture to art, design, and stylish product, but if so — oh, never mind.
