There's a lot to discover here for kids of all ages. I liked opening the skull with the brain inside!<br />

realized that engineering and art are not exactly opposites, as the
course load for each would suggest, but rather one can greatly influence
the other. One artist that I found that walks the line between the two
is Theo Jansen with his Strandbeests. The Strandbeests are mechanical
animals that live on the beach and are self-propelled by the wind. Theo
Jansen is able to take the engineering principals that would make a
machine like this move, and apply his artistic vision to make it move
and look like a real animal. Since discovering Theo Jansen, pop-ups
have only reinforced this notion of combining paper-engineering with art
to create a movable masterpiece! You can find out more about Theo
Jansen and his work at <a href="http://www.strandbeest.com/" target="_blank">http://www.strandbeest.com/</a><br />
<br />
Here's a video of one of his pieces:<br />

is about to have its 9th biennial conference in Salt Lake City!!<br />

The
Movable Book Society was founded in 1993 as a way for collectors,
artists, curators, booksellers, book producers, and anybody who loves
pop-up and movable books to get together and share their enthusiasm for
the art. This year’s conference should not disappoint with
presentations from <a href="http://www.chuckfischer.com/" target="_blank">Chuck Fischer</a>, <a href="http://www.popyrus.com/" target="_blank">Andrew Baron</a>, <a href="http://www.robertsabuda.com/" target="_blank">Robert Sabuda</a>, and a whole lot more! There will also be workshops and demonstrations
where visitors have the opportunity to get their hands dirty and make
some of their own pop-ups as well as a tour of local book studios and a
<a href="http://www.slcpl.lib.ut.us/events/view/1437/" target="_blank">pop-up exhibit</a> from the collection of Ann Montanaro Staples.<br /><br />So
if you want to meet a bunch of awesome people who love pop-ups as much
as you, you can find all of the information you need and a registration
form at the <a href="http://www.movablebooksociety.org/conference.html" target="_blank">Movable Book Society conference website</a>, but act fast because early registration for the conference ends on Wednesday, August 22nd!<br />

I have been a fan of <a href="http://www.danmccarthy.org/news/00.news.html">Dan McCarthy's</a> work for years now and I'm so excited to have his 'Silence is Golden' print hanging in the studio. It's stunning in person, the image below does not do it justice:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
His
work reminds me of Eyvind Earle's work-- graphic, bright colors,
and nature based images. But McCarthy also does these amazing gradients
in his prints that add atmosphere and mood to the pieces. The bright
colors against stark black images really pull you in. Sometimes he's
subtle with the color, other times he's full on rainbow!<br />
<br />

This hilarious book by comedian Ricky Gervais features fantastic pop-ups by veteran paper engineer Richard Ferguson with illustrations by Rob Steen (published by Candlewick in 2009). Gervais introduces us to Mernimbler, Grob, Bletchling and many other "pointless ugly creatures" from the Flanimal kingdom. Ferguson matches Gervais' humor with clever "poppy-upness."</div>

is a soft mollusk that sheds its shell after their larval stage. What
is really astonishing about these creatures is their striking patterns
and colors! <a href="http://www.colourlovers.com/blog/2008/07/17/nudibranchs-the-most-colorful-creatures-in-the-world" target="_blank">The Colour Lovers blog</a> actually have a really great article

This practice,<br />which can be traced back as early as the 14th century, has been elegantly<br />repurposed by artist Lisa Nilsson in the form of anatomical diagrams and<br />cross-sections. I admire her absolute dedication to the art and science in<br />every piece she shows, you can find more of her work on her website.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.lisanilssonart.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1342123569_2">www.lisanilssonart.com</span></a><br />

were digitally made and printed. But if you look close enough there
might be one blotch or something slightly not symmetrical that will be
the sign that these were hand made. Joe Kievitt is behind these
beautiful drawings. The mosaics are probably my favorite, but the
crispness of the lines and the the even tones of color are astonishing.

The book's jaunty rhyme is very funny and ends with a lucky twist, and the pop-ups and art have unique styles. On his website, Ray Marshall posted a <a href="http://raymarshall.com/rays-work/the-castaway-pirates/" target="_blank">great explanation of how his book was made</a>, from the original idea to the final production. If you're curious about the process of making a pop-up book, I recommend it!<br />

noun:<br />
A strip of material gathered or pleated and attached at on edge, with the other edge left loose or hanging. <br />

Glass bottles, bicycle wheels, hand-painted tiles, mirrors, and sculptures cover the walls and floors, both inside the building and in the courtyard. Outside, Zagar created a maze of walkways that feel like a world away from the city outside. I was enchanted.<br />

Max is a mechanic who pulls levers and pushes buttons he probably shouldn't, including the ejector button on his plane! On each spread vehicles pop-up and, with the help of giant pull tabs, lift, tilt, and fly. My favorite is the dump truck. Pulling the tab makes the back of the truck tilt back and "dump" the dirt out. It's a nice big book for curious little hands.<br />

<span>Edholm Ullenius is a studio of two people, Sissi Edholm and
Lisa Ullenius. They are based out of Stockholm and have worked with a
wide range of clients like Ikea and Paul Smith. Their work is graphic
but incorporates whimsical little line drawings and sometimes it's
reminiscent of Matisse's paper cut outs. Edholm Ullenius' work has been
on multiple surfaces including fabric, bottles, packaging, and tote
bags. Check out more of their work on <a href="http://www.edholmullenius.se/home2010" target="_blank">their website.</a></span></div>
