Jeremy Blake 1972-2007
Artist Jeremy Blake has passed away today, New York Police have said, in an apparent suicide at his New York City apartment. An up-and-coming avant-garde artist who sought to bridge the worlds of film and painting, his contirbutions to the world of art, by age 35, have been significant. One of his best known pieces of work were the hallucinatory sequences of blending primary colors between scenes in Paul Thomas Anderson's 2002 film 'Punch Drunk Love.' His long-time companion, Theresa Duncan, a filmmaker, artist and sometime video-game designed, commited suicide early last month in the couples Manhattan home. Blake was a visionary artist whose work will be missed.

I read about Jeremy Blake and his GF Theresa Duncan in Vanity Fair today and figured they were just nutty poseurs, but his vision is for real. Inspiring.
I fail to see any vision at all in his video doodles much less to find them inspiring.
I think he and his girlfriend were victim's of NYC hype machinery which them bonkos when they could deliver the goodies to meet the hype. Sad.
I loved your blog. Thank you.
