\"GeorgeDinkel<\/a>Hurrah! The Summer 2016 issue went out on Saturday, so if you were waiting on a digital edition, check your inbox (or spam folder if it’s not there). We started mailing the print edition out on Thursday and the last of those (for subscribers with active accounts and pre-orders prior to Friday) will get packed\u00a0and off today. We’ll do another mailing for recent orders in a couple of days, so if you haven’t subscribed, renewed, or ordered your copy<\/a>, you’ll want to be sure to have this for your summer reading and plane rides to vacation destinations. Not to mention in the studio!<\/p>\n

Because there is a lot going on in this issue, this week and maybe next we’ll be highlighting art that\u00a0we just couldn’t fit in. The first article in the Summer 2016 Movement issue is an interview with the amazing Georg Dinkel. Of course, all his work involves movement, even this TV shrine that looks like a beautifully ornate shrine in classic ecclesiastical styling when closed but opens to reveal a modern Apple TV and what looks like religious portraits until you get a closer look. I had wanted to get these portraits in the article but they just wouldn’t be printable if we made them large enough to show the detail. Because at closer inspection, you see that they aren’t cardinals and priests but rather\u00a0iconic\u00a0TV and movie characters dressed up like them. Click on the image below to get a bigger picture and see who you can identify.<\/p>\n

For more images and information\u00a0on this and Georg’s many other intensely detailed pieces, visit his website<\/a>\u00a0and read the article which gives so much insight into why he creates these, how he creates and constructs them, and the interesting story about how he moved from wood to polymer in his work.

Inspirational Challenge of the Day:<\/strong> Draw inspiration from your sources of entertainment. What TV shows, movies, books, or music are you drawn to? Choose one and create or design a piece that relates to it somehow. It can embody a concept from the source\u00a0or could be worn by a character in a show or may just have colors and forms inspired by the emotions it brings up in you.<\/p>\n
