“I recall an August afternoon in Chicago in 1973 when I took my
daughter, then seven, to see what Georgia O’Keeffe had done with where
she had been. One of the vast O’Keeffe ‘Sky Above Clouds’ canvases
floated over the back stairs in the Chicago Art Institute that day,
dominating what seemed to be several stories of empty light, and my
daughter looked at it once, ran to the landing, and kept on looking.
"Who drew it," she whispered after a while. I told her. "I need to talk
to her," she said finally.”

Lucas Maassen
Two projects i like...
Valerie, My Crystal Sister
Artist Lucas Maassen never had a sister. His parents separated before making another baby, so he did what any scientifically-inclined artist would do: he crystalized bits of his parents’ DNA. He then made larger copies of the crystals and had his parents assemble a sculpture from those crystals as part of an exhibition titled Confrontations.

Lucas Maassen & Sons
"Lucas Maassen has employed his 3 sons, Thijme (9), Julian (7) and Maris (7). His Sons are responsible for the paint job of the furniture which is build in the factory. They get paid 1 Euro for every piece of furniture they paint. As agreed by the contract they signed.
Due to Dutch child labour laws it is only possible for Thijme, Julian and Maris to work for 3 hours a week. As a result of this the production speed has became a crucial factor in the process. Time limitations are set, they contribute to the typical LM&S aesthetics."
