We know Art Basel wrapped up five days ago, which translates to approximately two decades in "blog time," but that's one of the problems with covering an event like Art Basel for a blog isn't it? The pressures of a non-stop deadline doesn't give you the luxury of digesting what you've seen, and there's so much to be seen that there's no way, unless you forgo sleep and adopt some serious stimulant habit, that you're going to be able to blog about it all.

Ironically enough, we first came across AJ Fosik's work on the blog FFFFound and it was practically the first thing we saw as we entered. He cross references taxidermy, folk art (most notably Mexican) and a distinctly modern color palette.
