Larry Ossei-Mensah featured on Japanese TV

Recently, I was featured in a piece for Japanese TV documenting the Afropolitan community in NYC. I found it interesting to chat about the various nuances that inform my cultural identity. Moreover, it still fascinates me how influential African cultural is on our global society.   

Check out the clip when you have a moment, you will see some other familiar faces. Skip to the 5:50 mark if you want to see moi 🙂 Special shout out to Ngozi OditaDelphine Fawundu-Buford & Ale et Ange for the dope tie.   – LOM (@youngglobal)


 

Gerhard Richter Painting Trailer

I was strolling through the village earlier today and stumbled upon this film playing @ the Film Forum, Gerhard Richter Painting.  Gerhard Richter is considered to be arguably one the most important living visual artist of the 20th century. At the ripe age of 80, he still toils away in his studio creating iconic image after another.
What was great about this film is that is provided an in depth look @ his process and the barometer for what he deems to be a “good” or  “bad” piece. The film is a must see for any creative searching for a window of insight into what variables are needed to consistently strive for excellence in their artistic practice.
