The Dutch artist known as Delta (Boris Tellegen) showed off a diverse arsenal of new works (including sculptures, paintings and 3-D installation pieces) which depicted the complex layers and symmetry that we’ve come to expect from the graffiti artist. Dalek (James Marshall – interviewed) balanced out the show with this renowned “superflat” geometric colors and meticulous line-work. […]

Openings: Mode 2 – “Reality, Fantasy, And The Web” @ Lazarides (Newcastle)

Posted by juggernut3, August 26, 2009

Who can take a stack of hard cardboard or a cold brick wall and create aÂ sensually hypnotic work of art? Mode 2 can. The artist known for his erotic urban techniques opened “Reality, Fantasy, And The Web” (previewed) at Lazarides last weekend. For a show that was created completely on location in the Newcastle gallery, it’s fascinating how Mode 2 was able to work with the gritty surroundings he was given and transform it into visually arresting and erotic snapshots.

Jeff Koons’ Diamond Lights Up Manhattan Skyline

Posted by juggernut3, August 24, 2009

What would you do if you had the money to get one of Jeff Koons’ famous “Diamond” sculptures? Where would youÂ place it to get the most out of your new found bling? On the roof of your luxury penthouse? Apparently that’s exactly what hedge-fund mogul Richard Perry did. After buyingÂ the sculptureÂ for 2.3 million dollars in 2005, he installed his flashyÂ green diamond on the roof using a crane in 2007. That’s when the complaints started coming in. The 5ft tallÂ (size of a buffalo) stainless steel metallic […]
