Love: Saul Bass's poster for the 1961 San Francisco International Film Festival. We bid for and lost it on eBay but then later found it at the Alameda flea market.
Like: My brother's Millionaire Playboy series. davidrourkeevans.com
Discovery: Art where you least expect it: (1) In looking though a brown paper bag of old Pfeifer family pictures, we saw this photo which appears to have been a happy accident. We blew it up and voila: a cool photograph that we've framed and hung in a bathroom. (2) The James Hotel in Chicago runs this cool video on a loop on the TV in the hotel gym. Commissioned by a Swedish artist, it's 24 hours in the life of the city and it's hypnotic and fun to watch.
Obsession: I want to create one of those eclectic gallery walls in our house. I still haven't figured out which wall to use and what pieces to fill it with.
Complaint: We have a bad habit of buying pieces of art that are huge and then have hard time finding the wall space to fit them.
