David LaChapelle: Earth Laughs In Flowers

2012-02-10T10:00:00.000-06:00

David LaChapelle has created 'earth laughs in flowers', a series consisting of the ten large-scale
still life photographs based on the poem "Hamatreya" by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Where are these men? Asleep beneath their grounds:
And strangers, fond as they, their furrows plough.
Earth laughs in flowers, to see her boastful boys
Earth-proud, proud of the earth which is not theirs;
Who steer the plough, but cannot steer their feet
Clear of the grave.

RIP Mike Kelley

2012-02-01T16:06:00.000-06:00

Mike Kelley passed away today. I was first introduced to Kelley's work from his collaborations with Paul McCarthy, which were a huge inspiration during my undergrad years. It is another sad day for the art world.

Here is what ArtInfo has to say:

Artist Mike Kelley has passed away at his home in Los Angeles, having apparently taken his own life. The tragic news was confirmed to BLOUIN ARTINFO by Helene Winer, of New York's Metro Pictures gallery, a long-time associate of the artist.

No Parking

2012-01-24T10:00:00.000-06:00

After the engine of his Porsche 911 decided to die (and take much of the cooling system along with it in some kind of powertrain suicide pact), the owner considered the $20,000 repair job and instead decided to donate the car to a non-profit. A non-profit dedicated to protecting gun rights. Let's find out what happens when you pump a car with 10,000 rounds of hot lead.

Sculpture/ Installation by Sonia Kacem

(Re-) using simple everyday objects which can be salvaged from urban space, the practice of SONIA KACEM involves a notion of practical recycling. There is no ‘aura’ of past times, no sense of nostalgia, rather, these common materials – anything that catches her eye and triggers a sculptural response, having the right shape, color, volume – serve to set up a temporary structure, to claim space inside the exhibition room.

Richard Prince: de Kooning

2011-10-16T13:27:00.000-05:00

It was time to pay homage to an artist I really like. Some people worship at the altar - I believe in de Kooning.--Richard Prince

Prince’s “de Kooning” series is a process of interaction with the canonic imagery of the Abstract Expressionist idol Willem de Kooning. The idea for these edgy Oedipal works came to him when he was leafing through a catalogue of de Kooning’sWomen series. He started sketching over the paintings, sometimes drawing a man to de Kooning’s woman. As time went on, he began applying fragments of male and female torsos, genitalia, thighs, and facial features, cut and pasted from catalogues and vintage porn magazines, as well as drawing with graphite and oil crayon, adding outlines, silhouettes and textures to the original figures that further blur the distinction between de Kooning’s imagery and Prince’s own.

Introducing my new 'Transformation Series' of dot-to-dot drawings and also the launch of my online store.

This limited edition A3 (11.7 x 16.5 in) print of 50 lets you create a unique art piece that shows the transformation of the Michael Jackson from child to man. All you need is a pen, the ability to count numbers and a steady hand to draw.

It is one of the most remarkable transformations of an individual in history and I can think of no one better to launch my latest transformation series of dot-to-dot drawings with.

The Tropism Well

2011-09-19T10:00:00.000-05:00

The Tropism Well uses natural laws of physics to function. Once it has seen you, the gentle bowing motion is created simply by moving water up and down the stem.

Through the synthesis of nature and technology, these structures explore the relationships we have with objects and spaces that surround us on a daily basis. The simple gestural connection that’s created offers a stimulating and symbolic moment.

We plan to use Tropism Wells at festivals and events and also open up conversations for permanent installations to replace the current ageing drinking fountains in public space.

Interactive Robotic Painting Machine

computers, robotics, camera, microphone, mixer, speakers, projector, oil paint, canvas

This machine uses artificial intelligence to paint its own body of work and to make its own decisions. While doing so, it listens to its environment and considers what it hears as input into the painting process. In the absence of someone or something else making sound in its presence, the machine, like many artists, listens to itself.

Stay tuned to the end to see a collection of additional paintings the machine has made.
