"I think art is a total thing. A total person giving a contribution. It is an essence, a soul...In my inner soul art and life are inseparable"

In honor of International Women’s Day, did you know that the AMAM houses the archives for one of the most-celebrated female artists of the 20th century, Eva Hesse? The AMAM was the first museum to purchase a sculpture, Laocoön, by Hesse, in 1970. In gratitude for its recognition of Hesse’s work, and following the artist’s untimely death, her sister Helen Hesse Charash generously donated the artist’s notebooks, diaries, sketchbooks, photographs, and letters to the museum. These are preserved for research, teaching and exhibition; scholars wishing to view this material may make an appointment in the museum’s Print Study Room. Image:

Learn to say “Fuck You” to the world once in a while. You have every right to. Just stop thinking, worrying, looking over your shoulder, wondering, doubting, fearing, hoping for some easy way out, struggling, gasping, confusing, itching, scratching, mumbling, scrambling, hatching, bitching, groaning, horse-shitting, nit-picking, piss-trickling, eyeball-poking,finger-pointing, alleyway-sneaking, evil-eyeing, back-scratching, grinding grinding grinding away at yourself. Stop it. Don’t worry about cool. Make your own uncool. Make your own, your own world.

Sol LeWitt, from a letter to Eva Hesse (via violentwavesofemotion)
