Brigid Berlin, who worked with iconic pop artist Andy Warhol, created this needlepoint pillow art showcasing, among other things, the sensationalistic and sometimes crude headlines of tabloids such as the New York Post and the NY Daily News. Berlin is celebrating 10 years of embroidery work involving media bottom feeders such as the Post and their salacious and scandal-ridden covers. The art will be exhibited at the John McWhinnie and Glen Horowitz Bookseller from October 21 (6-8pm) and runs through November 22.  "Her subjects are typically crude, salacious paper-selling press announcements in origin designed to appall, shock, and titillate viewers. The meticulously executed needlepoint pieces transform the daily ghastliness of news occurrences and media spin into demure domestic objects of quaint design and questionable comfort."
