Jeff Koons goes ahead with his controversial new Paris sculpture
Despite criticism from Parisians, the American artist’s Bouquet of Tulips will be installed in the Petit Palais garden. The work is intended to commemorate victims of the 2015 terror attacks in Paris. Writing in Hyperallergic, Joseph Nechvatal is having none of it: “Like “Large Vase of Flowers” (1991), “Bouquet of Tulips” (2016) is just a straining example of his signature brain-dead brand aesthetic of vacuous, hyper-commodified financial empowerment.”
Adobe MovingStills convincingly adds motion to still images
PetaPixels reports on this interesting new Adobe feature: “At the ongoing Adobe MAX 2018 conference, Adobe is showing off some sneak peeks of features being developed for the Creative Cloud. One of them is MovingStills, which lets you add realistic camera moves to any still photograph, bringing it to life. The idea is to use artificial intelligence to intelligently create parallax based on what’s found in a photo, turning it into a faux video shot with a moving camera.”

A creative guide to asking for what you need
From The Creative Independent and Void Academy, a beautifully illustrated guide to getting what you want finding career success by asking for it: “Remember: if you make art that resonates with people, they’ll want you to keep making it. But until you clarify what you need to keep making it, you’ll be the only one who knows what you need to keep going.”
Looking back at the most widely-attended exhibition ever
To celebrate their ongoing Magnum Photos collaboration, Portrait of Humanity, British Journal of Photography shares the history of Portrait of Man, a 1950s-era touring photo exhibition that aimed to document humanity around the world: “Selected works included a 1950 photograph showing four generations of farm workers; a young boy playing the flute in Peru; an Inuit mother of the Padleimut tribe kissing her child in an Igloo in 1950, alongside more harrowing images; a ‘damaged child’ staring hauntingly into the camera in Shacktown, Oklahoma in 1936, and a soldier with a thousand yard stare in Korea, 1950.”
