LWA 10.17 by Kennedy Prints for 20x200 Hi, it’s Jen. How are you? Or, as my free-clinic Freudian shrink back in college days used to say with a thick German accent (for real!), “How are you?” Not so good, maybe? I sure can’t blame you if you’re feeling blue, or anxious or angry, or all of the above. We’re all pretty worn down by the seemingly endless stream of bad news. As I said last night on Twitter, it’s...
There’s no shortage of awesome art world escapades to get mixed up in this autumn. How to whittle down the pickings to the few things you can tackle in the fraction of a week during which you’ve actually got free time? That is the question. We suggest you start with our guide to the good stuff—which is no doubt missing some majorly cool stuff but we’re trying to exercise some self-restraint here and it’s A...
78 and sunny isn't exactly your stereotypical late-September climate, but that isn't stopping us from diving headfirst into fall like a golden retriever into a freshly raked pile o' leaves. (We're low-key embarrassing about our affection for all things autumnal.) This weekend's exercise in seasonal appreciation includes a team outing to the Queens Farm Museum, where we'll wander through a maize maze, terrify children with our enthusiasm re: petting goats, and prolly run through the...
Kojima zu, a 20x200 Vintage Edition Kojima zu keeps us guessing. Made by a mystery artist, this enigmatic new Vintage Edition of Japanese origin charms from the start. At first blush, it lures the viewer into its laid-back, breezy, brackish world. Undulating waves crash on a craggy rock, the serene sea view stretching into the horizon. If it weren’t for the clouds and the presence of two drifting seabirds in the distance, the sky and sea would...
What're you doing other than calling your senators to implore them to vote down this abomination? How about quelling your anxiety with some good stuff that's going on in the world? This week's Click List is a steady stream of awesome to see you through the suckitude. Fuel up on these finds! – Team 20x200 Babes come in all shapes and sizes, but the fashion industry has fallen shamefully short of catering to fuller figures. Praise the style...
Cousins, 2017 by Winky Lewis Winky Lewis has a way with summer. We’re calling it an instinct, one that’s been finely tuned by warm weeks with her family on a rustic island in Maine, camera in tow. Her kids take to the habitat—the very same her husband spent his childhood summers splashing around—with free-wheeling fervor. Lewis relishes in photographing one of her favorite places, and the kids provide a perfect subject. There’s something about youthful frolicking that...
If you’re a woman who works in tech, you’re likely already familiar with Ellen Pao. Perhaps, like me, you were glued to the unfolding of her landmark gender discrimination case against the legendary (and hugely powerful) Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins. If so, you were probably blown away by her bravery and fortitude, and kinda devastated when she didn’t win. She’ll tell you herself though, that it was worth it. Why? Well, it’s called The Pao Effect,...
We've fully recovered from our tenth birthday bash last week (if you ask us, all birthdays should be celebrated for a minimum of 7 days), which means we've got time to plan another kind of party—a going away for our girl Cassini, the NASA probe who's making her final approach to Saturn in just two days. (ICYMI, we still love space.) It also means we're back to misbehaving in the form of delivering excellent internet distraction for yewwww. Dig...
