Plush Week at Gallery 1988 by Carol T Chung
Opening this Tuesday night in L.A. at Gallery Nineteen Eighty Eight is Plush Week! The show features hundreds of one of kind plush toys to drown yourself in cuteness consumption gluttony. Featured here is Tsai-Fi's Periwinkle Dust Bunni. Tsai-Fi takes vecter art characters and brings them to life as plushies and even applies the characters to t-shirts and accessories. Her work as well as many others will be exhibited at the show this week, so be sure to check it out if you're in the L.A. area. I bet the little darlings could all use a good home!

Bill McMullen: Hype, Hustle, Rip-Off
Bill McMullen is so — I hate to use the word — creative. Widely known as one of the Beastie Boys' graphic designers (we're talking "Hello Nasty" and beyond here), he is also well known for his limited edition "action" figures which were sold at Kidrobot while they lasted. Some people remember the sick designs he did for the seminal skate store, SWISHNYC, while others...

New Image Gallery Anniversary Show
by Ariston Anderson With curators waking up to all-time low sales in the art market, we're always happy to see an independent gallery that's thriving. One of our favorite small galleries is L.A.'s own New Image Gallery. Founded in 1994 by Marsea Goldberg in her 10x10 design studio, the gallery has since grown to be at the forefront of fine art as well as to...

Chris Stain: Out on the Roof Counting Pigeons

The Baltimore native builds his vision of inner city life through large-scale stencil installation as well as found objects. Stain comments, "my work explores the emotional and physical struggle of growing up in an urban environment. Through hand-cut stencils...

Wangechi Mutu
Wangechi Mutu’s new show “Little Touched” at Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects is so complete and polished that it feels more like walking into a museum than a gallery. Originally from Kenya, Mutu’s work focuses on the constant exploration and discovery of identity as a woman, immigrant and African in New York City. Known for her lyric collages like “A’gave you” (pictured right), this...

Rostarr Shines in LA
Last Friday night, I zipped by BLK/MRKT to visit Rostarr as he was starting to install his solo show that opens this Saturday night. His works were spread out on the floor waiting to be hung, and I could tell that the show was going to be stellar. For the last year or two, Ro has been working in a new direction that you...
