SUMMER WITH THE TILLMANS: CAMP TILLMAN, PART 2
Say what you will about the Tillmans: brash, obnoxious, cocky, little patience for social conventions, boozy, unreliable—really, we could go on. But to a person they've got an eye for the ridiculous and an eye for the sublime and when both are open and wired to a semi-sober brain some real live grace happens. Their Baker neighborhood compound, site of the informal Camp Tillman, is a case in point. The place is overflowing with the gorgeous and the strange and, happily for reckless kids with an anti-social streak, stocked with entertaining ways to injure yourself and your brother. Those we may post up later but here, some of the grace: yard art, Tillman style. We don't know the precise what and why but we are very much feeling the style. More to come as we spend more of the summer, now two days old, with our favorite clan.
