My Complete 20×200 Guest Curator Collection

August 26th, 2009

20x200 Guest Curator You like looking at beautiful things? You're in the right place. The full collection of pieces from my guest curator stint at online art gallery 20x200 is now available. Check out what they all look like hanging on a wall together. If I had to name this collection, I'd call it nerdy-nostalgic.

As I said earlier, my favorite piece is Rebecca Loyche's The Office, but Mark Richards' Apple I comes in a close second. (Aren't computer innards awesome?) I love all of the pieces, but the other image I can't get out of my head is Hosang Park's Howon aerial photograph.

Check out 20x200's full newsletter about the collection, which includes an IM conversation transcript between myself and gallery owner extraordinaire Jen Bekman. If you need to spice up your cubicle or home, pick up a piece or two (or eight) to support some amazing artists and the gallery who features them.

20x200 is a treasure trove of eye candy. Be prepared to spend some time there, and maybe even a little money--you want to buy and hang this stuff in your home and office. I had a ball making my picks, which will appear in tomorrow's next week's edition of the 20x200 email newsletter. In the meantime, I get to share my favorite of all the pieces: the one pictured here, a photo called "The Office" by Rebecca Loyche. Here's an excerpt of a chat transcript between Jen and I about the photo.
