Surfboard inspiration


I have been coveting these Peter Dayton "surfboards" inspired by stripe artists, like Barnett Newman and Kenneth Noland, who were favored by the powerful critic Clement Greenberg. I also liked this Matt Spahr installation at Civilian Art Projects last November. A couple of the pieces were inspired by Greg Noll surfboard designs and their construction employs actual surfboard-making techniques. Why am I posting about this now? Because after many months I will finally take possession of the Matt Spahr on the left. Woooooo!
