The Astonishing Post is an art & lifestyle tumble-zine that celebrates creativity, encourages artistic community, and enjoys a good cup of coffee. The Astonishing Post was created by Nathan B Weller in 2010.
Important Note: While still active here on Tumblr, I've expanded the scope of this project at the new official home of The Astonishing Post in an effort to improve the usefulness of this blog as a resource.
I hope you'll stop by and check it out!- Nathan

Works of Calder - This three minute film by Herbert Matter succinctly relays Calder’s vision. From the importance of the shadows thrown by his mobiles’s shapes, to the notion that the shapes are what they are and nothing else, this is an intimate look at Calder in his studio as seen through the eyes of a child.

Yunwoo Choi, who holds two M.F.A.’s (one in Sculpture, one in Fine Art), creates large scale sculpture out of rolled up magazines. But that sounds so much more boring than what the artist’s work actually brings to the table. The magazines lend a chunky, geometric punch to the already weighted works that is hard to anticipate only from a textual description. So many magazines are used in each piece that the works almost buzz with a busy violence, which is weird when you consider that they only consist of a a bunch of newsprint. This contradiction calls into question conventional concepts of strength, weight, and coherence. (by Aaron Berger)
