Hey, this post may contain adult content, so we’ve hidden it from public view.
Originally built by architect Andre Bloc in 1949, La Maison Bloc is an unusual, geometric house owned by curator and collector Natalie Seroussi. Viewers must enter the dwelling’s sculptural interior through a hidden hollow in its wooded surroundings in Meudon, France. Seroussi has been inviting artists to create architectural interventions and installations in and outside the structure since 2008. Her latest guest artist, Didier Faustino, altered the space with a bright, rust-colored entrance in the shape of a “Pow!” visual onomatopoeia. The outdoor work (which brings a loud, blatant pop culture reference into the quiet forest) leads the way into a sound installation composed of whimpering voices. A neon arrow sign sculpture illuminates the interior, further alluding to comic book imagery. See more on Hi-Fructose.
Relax. Inhale through your nose. Hold it. Trust me when I say, “don’t worry.” Now, close your eyes and imagine. You are a child, wide-eyed and oblivious to adulthood stress. It is mid-July trudging through a record heat wave. You are buckled into a backseat of searing leather in a smelly mini-van. The single thing below one hundred degrees is your mother’s homemade watered down popsicles. Imagine your excitement for the days ahead and all the fun things you are going to do on this wonderful family vacation. Please emphasize on the words, “family” and “vacation.”

Toughing the world of non-fiction, Sundae Rye sarcastically polishes his former faith with candid humor and earthy absurdity. Adding to the maturing landscape of American atheism, this collection of short prose, pokes at Jesus, Christianity, indoctrination, the bible, pornography and the delightful transition to non-believing. Brief enough to be read during a Sunday service, this publication was fashioned for the newbie atheist who is equipped to laugh at his or her own religious past.
