Tuesday Edition: Jacob Magraw

Filed Under: artist newsletter    On: July 8, 2008    posted by: jenbekman

Sweltering Summer Tuesday greetings, collectors. I hope you all had weekends full of poolside barbeques and beach bumming good times. It can be tough to get back to the day-to-day after living the life of leisure, so I'm hoping that some refreshing art from a 20x200 favorite will brighten your day.

AA is our second edition from the talented and 20x200-super-connected Jacob Magraw. As a reader of last week's Grand Finale, you already know that Jacob is married to Rachell Sumpter.

There's even more interconnectedness beyond what I previously mentioned, if you can believe it. Rachell and Jacob are working on a book together, to be published by the fine folks at McSweeney's in the very near future. Which brings us to 20x200 artists who've done work with McSweeney's, like Echo Eggebrecht, Wendy Heldmann and Jason Polan.

And speaking of Jason, he's got all kinds of things upcoming with both McSweeney's and 20x200, and there's some other interconnectedness there that I can't even talk about yet. Suffice to say that we've got big plans, which we further refined over strawberry ice cream yesterday evening. (Yes, making plans with Jason Polan while sitting on a bench on East 10th during a warm but not too hot Summer evening was as fun as it sounds.)

It's also worth noting that while Rachell's Finale was gone in a flash, our archives are full of hidden gems, including a few Cave Dwellers from her previous edition along with many other goodies from the talented clan of 20x200 artists.

A 20x200 treasure hunt should tide you over till this week's photo edition blossoms in your inboxes at approximately this time tomorrow. There's a garden of earthly delights in store, rain or shine. See you then!
