Jim Houser’s Make Room for the Emptiness


I had a chance to revisit Jim Houser’s solo show at Jonathan Levine yesterday, and came away with an ever greater appreciation for the artist and his work.  I especially dug how he arranged the work, have a look above

Splitting Twilight, an exhibition of new paintings by Kristin Baker, opens at Deitch Projects on November 5, 2009.

Karen O’Leary is seriously detail-oriented. She has to be to create these City Map Cuts. They are beautiful, truly one-of-a-kind. And as most things one-of-a-kind are, they are now sold out. She does have some negative space maps using pencil and paper still for sale though. For more photos and details go here.

Kudos on the design and taking our Artorialust/Hot Chicks at Art Openings concept to an entirely different level.

Have a look if you like naked chicks and your co-workers approve

The Bikes of Stages Auction was a Success

Really how could it not be with such a great assortment of names (Damien Hirst, Kenny Scharf, Marc Newson, KAWS, Shepard Fairey, and Yoshimoto Nara) customizing a sick model bike for charity. The result of each bike that went up for auction is in the slideshow, and the final tally was “$1,125,000 going directly to The Lance Armstrong Foundation to help fund outreach, awareness, research, and advocacy.”
