4. Tadaomi Shibuya via NeochaEDGE—I just discovered this website and it’s pretty good (…if only there were some way I could list my favorite links somewhere on my blog…)

5. Kevin Cyr’s “large-scale vehicle portraits” Camper Kart & Bike via Core77 / Raandesk Gallery

Jason Bryant and Kevin Cyr

(I used to intern at the gallery that used to represent Jason Bryant)

UPDATE: I was mistaken about the exhibition—the “large-scale vehicle portraits” are actually large-scale vehicle portraits; Behind the Curtain is an exhibition of paintings. AM and PSFK both have more pictures.
