Opening last weekend at the Fireplace Project was Aurel Schmidt’s newest solo show – “Summer Bummer”. The New York artist, socialite, and one of this year’s Whitney Biennialists, produced a lovely new collection of intricate drawings built from what others consider trash or detritus – her signature twist. For this more simple body of work, themes of flowers and butterflies are prevalent – perfect for a little summer show in the Hamptons. More images after the jump…
A “Tesco Sand Castle” piece recently showed up that has strong possibilities as the newest Banksy piece in Hastings, a town on the coast of East Sussex in England. First off, the child shows some similarities to the postcard included with the limited edition “Exit Through The Gift Shop” DVD set. Second of all, some notables were in the area recently to celebrate Eine’s 40th birthday, so the timing seems to fit. Via the The Banksy Forum. Discuss Banksy here.
Teresa Duck’s paintings grabbed our attention earlier this year when we saw her works at Opus Art’s “Fresh Cream 2” group show, and we just had sight of some of her latest pieces that will be shown at Opus’ Summer Group Exhibition – the first at their new central Newcastle location. Teresa’s series of surrealist figurative works focus on anatomical compositions – with a nod to victorian medical textbooks, metaphysics and alchemy, with some fantastic details and quirks to these small, vibrant oil paintings. The […]

Take a look some great pics from My Love For You or stop by yourself to check it out before August 31st.
Wow! Looks like Brian Viveros is raising an army of chain-smoking ladies for his upcoming solo at Thinkspace Gallery in October. The new body of work entitled “Dirtyland” will feature what Viveros does best – beautiful and rugged women smoking, carrying weapons, all mascaraed up and ready to do battle. More teaser shots after the jump…
AM stopped by the opening of Yoshitomo Nara & design firm graf/YNG’s “Open Studio” at the Park Avenue Armory. Using the massive Armory venue as a central staging ground, the YNG crew hit the ground running; creating a modular structure/installation designed to be carted up Park Ave in the upcoming week for the retrospective opening September 9th at the Asia Society. There, Nara will exhibit over 50 works to go along with the always impressive installations that accompany the immersive shows. Occupying the other half of the Armory space, Nara has a […]
It looks like Kaws has some “big” things planned for Asia this October. Take a look at this huge sculpture he’s working on for the “Passing Through” exhibition at Harbour City, one of the biggest shopping venues in Hong Kong. The hand positioning is reminiscent of the collaboration he did with Yue Minjun back in 2008. Discuss KAWS here.

It looks like this year’s Nuart Festival is finally underway in Norway. Blu continues his collaborations with big names, this time with Bologna based Ericailcane on the same building. Together, they take aim like other artists (Os Gemeos, Todd Schorr) at an easy target – the massive oil spill by BP in the Gulf of Mexico. Ironically, Stavanger is currently hosting ONS, one of the world’s largest oil and energy industry conferences. Keep it locked on AM as Vhils, ROA, Dolk, Evol, Alexandros Vasmoulakis, Sten […]
When AM visited Tom French in his Newcastle Studio earlier this year, we discovered the artist deep within an experimental phase. Whilst Tom is recognized for his stunning charcoal figurative works, we witnessed the first stages of him working on a new layering technique involving his traditional drawing skills, but also combining multiple painted film layers over the drawings to present an extra level of depth and abstraction to his work. We also caught a glimpse of another part of Tom’s oeuvre as work in […]
