Preview: London Police – “Fresh Geezers” @ Factory Fresh

Posted by sleepboy, December 10, 2009

The London Police, whom we met in LA recently, will be opening up a new show tonight – this time in New York. Entitled “Fresh Geezers,” the dual show at Factory Fresh will also feature Italian artist Galo. The recent documentary film “Brothers in Arms” filmed in LA where best friends Bob & Chaz (TLP) decided to handcuff themselves together for 24 hours a day (a social experiment of friendship versus personal space) will be playing for attendees to enjoy.

Posted by juggernut3, December 10, 2009

Sometimes the more you see the more you want. After spending the weekend with Audrey Kawasaki at Baby Tattooville (here), we were eagerly awaiting the opening of “Hajimari – a prelude” at Jonathan Levine Gallery this Saturday. Well, Audrey just released some stunning in-process pictures of her latest batch of hypnotic beauties. It’s just a taste of what we expect will be a great show. Word of caution as this show not only looks fantastic, but also very addicting… Check out the preview images after […]

Dual Artist Interview: Hush x Dan Baldwin Collaboration Show @ Zero Cool Gallery

Posted by sven, December 9, 2009

Our friends at Zero Cool gallery will be opening a new group show entitled “Don’t believe the Type” tonight in London that will feature four large scale collaboration paintings by Hush (interviewed) and Dan Baldwin (interviewed). The artists have not worked together in the past, but when AM heard that they would be pooling talents, we thought that this could be something special. Each started work on two pieces and when they finished their elements, the paintings were traded over for the other’s work. You […]

Preview: Chris Peters – “Reflections” @ Copro Gallery

Posted by sleepboy, December 9, 2009

Los Angeles artist Chris Peters will be opening a show this weekend at Copro Gallery entitled “Reflections.” He’ll be bringing along with him his skeletal friends like the one above in a painting entitled “Along a Dark Path.” It has always amazed us how Peters is able to protray human emotion with just the bare bones after one’s skin and muscle has been stripped away. Take a look at several more preview images after the jump…

Openings: HK Venture (Part II) – Jeremy Geddes

Posted by sleepboy, December 8, 2009

As we reported last month, the “HK Venture” exhibition featured an artist whose work left a lasting impression in our minds – Jeremy Geddes. The Melbourne-based artist has worked in illustration and comics, picking up a Spectrum Gold Award along the way. His new body of work features cosmonauts, seemingly weightless like in space, but suspended in urban environments instead. Take a look at the pics from the exhibition after the jump as well as two prints that were recently released…

Now, we have some behind the scenes pics of Zezão, Stephan Doitschinoff, Ramon Martins, Carlos Dias, Daniel Melim, and Titi Freak getting their freak on (no pun intended) as they set up for the groundbreaking show at one of the most respected museums in Latin America. If you like the pics after the jump, you might want […]

Basel Week Miami ’09 – Wynwood Walls Video

Posted by sleepboy, December 8, 2009

Here’s another sweet video from the minds at Vernissage TV. This time, they are profiling the Wynwood Walls project that we have been covering all of last week at Art Basel. It was a pretty mind-blowing to see so many large murals from quality artists all in the same location, something that probably doesn’t happen without the influence of Deitch with the backdrop of the premiere art fair in the U.S. Discuss Art Basel here.
