The Grey Lady Sees Colorful Writing On The Walls
By Joe Wertz
This is what 15 years of tension, tragedy and triumph looks like. Color-coding the subjects highlighted in New York Times headlines from 1990-2005, A. J. Bocchino has created a chronological map of news history. The subject of several gallery shows, Bocchino’s work can now help transform your home into a sobering exhibition space through 10-foot by 3.5-foot wallpaper rolls. The colored bars are printed atop the actual NYT headlines, which provide detail to obvious patterns in events and coverage. A color key details the news hues, and helps explain the history behind specific swatch swaths. [via wallpaperlab]
