The RedBall Project
“Through the RedBall Project I utilize my opportunity as an artist to be a catalyst for new encounters within the everyday. Through the magnetic, playful, and charismatic nature of the RedBall the work is able to access the imagination embedded in all of us”. – Kurt Perschke
What started out as just a commission, has turned into a wide traveling public art project. The RedBall Project was originally conceived as a one time temporary installation for Arts In Transit. Perschke used the money from the commission to take the RedBall Project to Barcelona, then to Sydney when a curator there had requested it, and since then has been traveling around to different cities all around the world. The inflatable ball is 15 feet high and weighs 250 pounds. For each site the RedBall Project goes to, it is inflated directly into the site making for an interesting composition within the structure it’s squeezing into. Viewers are free to look, touch, and judo-chop the giant red ball.

Lindsay Lohan, featured in an art project?
This is Interesting. Artist Richard Philips, a photorealist painter , created a film titled “Lindsay Lohan”, featuring…Lindsay Lohan. The film is an original work of art, but also serves as a 90 second ad for Lindsay Lohan promoting her new sober self (guess we can’t call her “Lindsanity” anymore). The film will run during “Commercial Break”, a program of artist’s videos that will premiere during the opening events for the 54th Venice Biennial. This is actually Phillips first film, but it relates pretty closely to a lot of his painted subject matter that focuses on the celebrity and ideas of beauty that are found in pop culture.
Richard Philips is represented by Gagosian Gallery, you can check out more of is art there.
