From A to B and Back Again by Ami Kealoha
After countless magazine articles, acclaimed annual events, and a spate of new boutiques, Brooklyn is fast cementing its status as a design capital. "From A to B and Back Again" is the latest celebration of all that the borough has to offer, featuring limited editions and prototypes by well-known designers including KleinReid, Jason Miller, redstr/collective, Scrapile, and The Design Can. Among the many highlights is KAWS' latest, one of ten highly collectible toys that he did for Original Fake (pictured, click for detail). The show opens tomorrow 7 September 2006 at Heidi Cho Gallery in New York and runs through 14 October 2006.
