I’m competing for the title of laziest art blogger this year so here’s a very quick post….

If you’re in Paris too, you might like to swing by rue de Turenne and see a couple of easy (on your brain) exhibitions at the Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin. I had already admired the work of Paola Pivi in Milan a few years ago when she filled a disused ex-industrial space with a menagerie of white animals. This time the artist has hung 25 fake bear rugs in a perfect, cozy circle up and down the walls of one of the exhibition rooms.
