art in the age of mechanical reproduction

The irony of advancing technology is a newfound sense of longing for old-style tools. I work on a shiny Apple computer, but ah the patina and click- clackitiness of my Underwood typewriter! My Nikon D70 creates stunning images, but the magic of my Eames-era Polaroid camera can’t be matched! Thus, I loved Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction on sight—it’s a place that celebrates an era long lost but throws in a modern twist. Thank goodness for the invention of plastic because you’ll want to use yours here.
