Origami


I have read some articles lately about all the really amazing things that artists have been doing with origami.  


Most of the press has been focused on very fluid and intricate folding based on mathematics. 


So when I read about the origami art exhibit at Cooper Union I decided to go check it out. 


I was not disappointed. 


Not only did the show include some amazing swirly sculptures,


it also had some very avant-garde clothing!  


But I was especially delighted to see that the exhibit still included lots of critters


which I tend to think of as traditional origami. 


But of course it was done with an artistic twist, so instead of just having animals they had animals interacting with each other.  


Sadly the exhibit closed on July 3 so you won't be able to go see it, but I will post some more pics soon.



Cheers!
