Openings: Art Nerd New York – “George Hearts Maria” @ Helium Cowboy

Posted by juggernut3, September 15, 2012

Our friends at Art Nerd New York recently invaded Hamburg, Germany for a special group show at Helium Cowboy. The exhibition entitled George Hearts Maria is themed around the tale of forbidden romance between the Prince George of Wales and commoner Maria Fitzherbert. While separated, they each had miniature eyes (of each other) painted so they could stare at them without getting caught by the royal family. Artists such as Allison Sommers, Beau Stannton, Ian Kuali’i, Jon Burgerman, Molly Crabapple, Ryan Brennan, Zac Braun and […]

Armory Week ’10: Scope New York

Posted by AM Editor, March 11, 2010

We attended the preview of Scope New York last Wednesday and visited the fair again on Saturday, and with the exception of stand-out booths by Anonymous, David B. Smith and newcomers Jackie Paper, found the fair to be somewhat disappointing overall. The show seemed small, not just relative to the enormous size of this year’s Armory Show, but compared with this year’s Scope Miami or last year’s Scope NY. And the overall selection and quality seemed to be down as well, with not a lot […]

Posted by juggernut3, October 29, 2009

We can’t seem to get enough of Tara McPherson and Molly Crabapple since drawing along side them at Baby Tattooville in the Riverside Art Museum (covered). So, AM decided to stop by and get in a little schooling with a special edition of NYC’s Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School featuring none other than our friend Tara McPherson.Â For this special session a “life drawing” model was transformed into a beautiful & seductive “Lonely Heart” siren. More after the jump.

Baby Tattooville ’09: Art Jam

Posted by juggernut3, October 6, 2009

If the artists at Baby Tattooville are the heart of the event, then the “Art Jam” is definitely the bloodline that is pumping throughout the event. Starting at 5pm on the opening day and lasting a little past 8pm the next night, “Art Jam” is a culmination of the all the participating artist’s hard work. Like in previous years, the blank canvas was tinkered with by a few brave artists during the initial dinner, but by the time midnight rolled around, one could clearly see […]

Dr. Sketchy Anti-Art School with Ron English

Posted by juggernut3, February 23, 2009

On Valentine’s Day, Molly Crabapple invited AM to participate in a “life drawing” event called Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. The guest artist for this session was our friend Ron English.Â Our first thoughtÂ was… “Thereâ€™s going to be a bunch of hardcore artist types sitting with their easels circling a ‘neck-ed’ model. Well, we were wrong…”Â Dr. Sketchy was anything but… SoÂ being the “Anti-Art” school, they hosted the event at aÂ burlesque barÂ crowded with beautiful peopleÂ excited to socialize and channel their inner artist.Â The subject was Ron English’s famous “Cow […]

Gen Art Vanguard – Basel Party

Posted by juggernut3, December 8, 2008

Friday night ended with a bang at theÂ OBEY x Z Trip party. But AM never told the tale of howÂ this massive night of Basel parties started. The Gen Art Vanguard party was the BaselÂ Friday night jumpoff where the “who’s who” of Miami were at. With heavy hitter sponsors such as FAGE, Citibank, and Bombay Sapphire footing the bill for drinks, Gen Art Vanguard was transformed into a true Miami mega event.Â Stars and artists lined up to grab their VIP goodie bags while everyone else […]
