10.10.2013

PHILLIPS, the world's third largest auction house, has a new facility on Park Avenue in NYC. and last week did something that has never been done before... Phillips Auction House gets the credit for hosting the historic first contemporary art auction dedicated exclusively to "Art in Digital Media." No other major auction house has ever focused exclusively on digital art for a singular sale. 

"Paddles ON!" was put together in conjunction with "tumblr" and the night presented works by 18 different artists, all of whom are exploring digital technologies as their medium. The works were comprised of software design; digital output prints; digital videos; sculpture incorporating digital output; unique digital paintings; linticular-image changing works; digital animations; and a interactive digital light sculpture. 

The auction was held on October 10th and offered twenty items, all sold.

The collaborative concept for "PADDLES ON!"was done by the three young women pictured above. (from left to right: Annie Werner of Tumblr, Megan Newcome of PHILLIPS and PADDLES ON! curator Lindsay Howard of 319 Scholes)

2 cups cooked chicken (from 1 grocery store rotisserie chicken, shredded)
2 cups shredded Tex Mex cheese or Monterey Jack cheese
3 Tbsp. butter
3 Tbsp. flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 (4 oz) can diced green chillies 

INSTRUCTIONS

2. Mix chicken and 1 cup cheese. Roll up in tortillas and place in pan.
3. In a sauce pan, melt butter, stir in flour and cook 1 minute. Add broth and whisk until smooth. Heat over medium heat until white sauce thickens and bubbles.
4. Stir Greek yogurt and chilies into the white sauce. Melt to blend, do not bring to boil, you don't want yogurt to separate.
