dan flavin (1933-1996)
dana funaro (b. 1981)

i never really looked at the work of dan flavin. i mean sure, we grazed over him in art history when we barely covered minimalism. WTF?! a dear friend, zachary granger moldof, made the connection to flavin's fluorescent light pieces when looking at my glittered penthouse pets.
