“The Russian artist El Lissitzky (1890-1941) was one of the great avant-garde figures of the early twentieth century. The Getty Research Institute holds a remarkable array of materials on Lissitzky, including book and periodical designs, his complete correspondence to his wife, Sophie Lissitzky-Küppers, photographs of his exhibition designs, his two personal address books, and additional manuscripts related to his life and work.” The Flash version appears to be super-lame so try the html version if you want to learn anything.

“I’d planned to interview Mark Hurst, but an argument broke out instead. Well, not an argument, but a ’spirited discussion’ about customer experience and how it relates to (Mark might say squashes) other fields like information architecture and usability engineering. We did a bit of sparring on CHI-WEB, and this interview seemed like a great way to ‘take if off-line,’ as the list moderators would say. Mark is the founder of Creative Good, and…well heck, let’s let him tell his own story.”

“In slightly over a century and a half, photography has gone from outsider to insider status, but now the rules of the art game seem to have changed, as ‘mixed media’ (collage and installation art, with photography, painting, and sculpture joined) and ‘new media’ (video and computer) disrupt the old-fashioned divisions into painting, sculpture, and prints and drawings. Photography may be the new kid on the block, but the whole neighborhood is changing fast.”
