Miami Art Week

An assortment of tempura fried flowers are beautifully arranged on Plexiglas in "Life Serves Up the Occasional Pink Unicorn" (2013) by New York-based Korean artist Anicka Yi—evoking, to us, the pastime of pressing flowers into scrapbooks. 

Radiance--Miami Art Week

Within a room dedicated entirely to the experience of "Radiance" (2013) by Cathy Cunningham-Little we were taken by the prismatic rays stemming from light placed upon angled glass. The installation, seen at Miami Project, turned simplicity into brilliance. It only takes two elements to dazzle.


Speedy Graphito "NEWWORLDS"


Artist Speedy Graphito recently opened his second solo exhibition, NEWWORLDS, at the Fabien Castanier Gallery. Presented together with SANDOW, a multi-platform media and design firm, the exhibition NEWWORLDS examines the mutation and perception of the image through the influence of technology and its associated information glut.

In 1956 Richard Hamilton, who has died aged 89, attracted attention with his collaged poster image for the This Is Tomorrow exhibition at the Whitechapel gallery in London. It was quite shocking: a naked woman on a sofa and a bodybuilding he-man holding an oversized lollipop labelled "Pop" in a prominent position, lots of domestic gadgets including a TV, the cover of a comic presented as a framed painting, an all-too-urban scene through the landscape window, the ceiling covered with a space-age photo of Earth.
