Nothing says the holidays like colorful, seasonal sweaters on Terracotta Warriors. Some staff have loaned their artistic talents to keeping these guys warm and festive.

Being greeted outside our staff kitchenette.

An auspicious terracotta warrior to wish the SF Giants good luck tonight on Game 7. You’ll be seeing more outfits on our cubicle paper doll warrior, made by creative museum staffer Laurel. Fun people work here.

Dear mystery artist, thanks SO much for creating this ephemeral piece of magic right next to our staff entrance (McAllister and Hyde). We all LOVE it. Not only has it put a spring in our step, but we’re sure it’s a pleasant surprise for every passerby. Thank you.

ps - excellent use of sticky dots too.

UPDATE: Some people have brought to our attention that this work is very familiar to that of Mademoiselle Maurice. Or Wu Mali.

LATEST UPDATE: Actually the artist(s) is TheUpsideUp. The only thing we know about her/him/them is that they’re super nice and awesome!

Man oh man oh man. Korean artist Sun K. Kwak has been creating her on-site art made out of MASKING TAPE. Here it is in progress. She channels the invisible energy she feels in a space, and makes it visible. Waves and waves of black stretch upwards and creep toward the ceiling.

We can’t wait to see how it will turn out. Come to our preview party on May 17 to see more in PHANTOMS OF ASIA at the Asian Art Museum, SF.

It’s gonna be big.
