(Almost) Back to back blog posts (hey @champagnepapi)! Before #fader, we wrote about the artist James Turrell's influence on Drake's Hotline Bling video. It's short and sweet and as always can be found at thanksforcreating.wordpress.com #hotlinebling #ovo #thanksforcreating #drake #jamesturrell #artblog

And we're back! It's been awhile, we know. Sorry for the wait? (Hey @liltunechi) Since we are officially feeling the feels of Fall we want to take some time and reminisce about the great art and music we experienced this summer. To start, we published a blog for our Everyday Experts series featuring our friend Alena's thoughts on Yayoi Kusama and her "Give Me Love" exhibition at David Zwirner Gallery. Please read at thanksforcreating.wordpress.com. @alenalinda #davidzwirner #everydayexperts #artblogs #asianart #thanksforcreating #kusama #moretocome

#TBT from "Kehinde Wiley: A New Republic." This week the Brooklyn Museum said farewell to this awesome exhibition. The exhibition featured images of African Americans in the style of traditional European portraiture. It waaas a pretty dope concept. (A little) more on Kehinde and his work in a upcoming TFC blog post. #kehindewiley #brooklynmuseum #worldstage #streetcasting #contemporaryart (at Brooklyn Museum)

What an amazing story these 60 panels told. #tbt #thegreatmigration #thanksforcreating #jacoblawrence (at The Museum Of Modern Art (Moma) - New York)
