Malin+Goetz Video Installation by Jacob Resneck
Malin+Goetz store between 5pm and 2am this evening.
The shampoo and body product store is running videos of male and female models indulging in Malin+Goetz products while in the shower. (Sans towel).
The display will certainly shock some, bemuse others, and titillitate a few. But that's a time-tested strategy behind PR gurus Gorilla Kingdom who designed and produced the project. New videos will be added monthly throughout 2006—barring a court's injunction, that is.
Malin+Goetz flagship store
177 Seventh Avenue (between 20th and 21st streets)

Mika Rottenberg
For our final video taking a closer look at this year's Whitney Biennial, we travel to the Harlem studio of video artist Mika Rottenberg. Known for videos depicting women engaging in elaborate systems of production that often harvest their own body, Mika shows us the set of her latest piece (and Biennial installation), "Cheese" and tells us the backstory of making the video. We...

Mock-Ups in Close-Up
Working in design retail, one of my favorite job perks was visiting architecture firms and sometimes catching a glimpse of building models. Beyond architect biopics, I have little recollection of seeing building models used in film, though apparently there's a wealth of footage available. Architect Gabu Heindl and film theorist Drehli Robnik recently compiled such footage (a curated selection of 80 clips) into an...

Reed Barrow: Monument to an Amaranth
Another experiment in reinventing the screen, New York-based sculptor Reed Barrow's LED chandelier, dubbed "Monument to an Amaranth," functions as a 360 degree display, playing a 12-minute video loop of abstract imagery. The teched-out fixture is a departure from Reed's other recent work, which tends toward absurd cultural interpretations (like a life-size werewolf sleeping in the web of a phosphorescent dream-catcher). Monument also has...

Urs Fischer: You
This weekend Ami and I got to check out You, Urs Fischer's installation at Gavin Brown's Enterprise. (Click images for detail.) The piece is an eight-foot deep crater measuring about 38x30 feet dug within the pristine white walls of the gallery. According to New York Magazine the pit took a ten days to build and cost about $250,000 using a jackhammer to remove the...

Pixelated Pulse Art Fair
A prominent motif at the Pulse art fair in NYC last week, pixelation was evident in a number of works in various mediums. From afar, these works can be read as a whole, but close up, the image starts to break down and the individual elements of the composition become more dominant. Here are a selection of some of our favorites. Click on any...
