Allie Wollner here, Adventure School summer intern and reckless adventurer reporting live from New York, the city that, so to speak, never sleeps. That is how you Americans say it, yes?

A few days ago, I found myself at the MOMA standing in front of a piece of art that I think makes an important statement about the status of the modern day intern. For your critical review: An ad for the Detroit chapter of the national AGIA design association by graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister.

The man in the picture is Mr. Sagmeister’s intern. He carved these words into his own body. With an Xacto knife. Himself.

My thoughts on the piece:

Aviva and Cori-

Thank you for not requiring me to carve each post into my body, then photograph it, and then post on the blog.

It truly saves a lot of time.

Love,
Allie

Ha! We forgot to tell you all posts in August need to be made either using linocut technology or sunprints! Looking forward to those! Have fun in NYC! We miss you.
