Artist and graphic design professor Kate Bingaman first caught our eye with her charming line drawings of her credit card statements, which are available from her website Obsessive Consumption each for the amount of that particular statement's minimum balance. The site which showcases Bingaman's love/hate relationship with consumer culture launched in early 2003 and includes drawings of all of her purchases from 22 January 2002 to 22 April 2004.

Bingaman was recently selected as one of ten winners of the Hey, Hot Shot! showcase, an ongoing series of exhibitions of emerging photographers, selected by a panel of influential photography industry insiders including Caterina Fake, Co-Founder of Flickr. The gallery will host a reception for the 2006 winners tomorrow, 6 September 2006 at the Jen Bekman Gallery, 6 Spring Street, New York City. The exhibition will be on view Thurs-Sunday 12-6pm through 10 September 2006.

Adam McEwen: Switch and Bait
by Kelsey Keith Adam McEwen is irreverent, witty, and whip smart (like any British artist worth his salt) and "Switch and Bait," his latest show with veteran gallerist Nicole Klagsbrun, is no exception. The exhibition, which opened last week in an auxiliary space in New York's Chelsea district, was slyly promoted with a press release detailing the process of machined graphite. "Graphite's specific properties, such...
Annie Kevan: All the Presidents' Girls
by Ariston Anderson At first glance, the collection of portraits FAS Contemporary's Volta booth appears to be a wall of extremely beautiful women throughout the ages, each one quickly created in delicate strokes of oil paint. But then Monica Lewinsky's face pops out at you and is that Paula Jones? British painter Annie Kevan's solo show features every Presidential girlfriend on record. Although the majority...
Ryan McGinness Works
by Ariston AndersonThe beauty of a Ryan McGinness show is not only that passing through the gallery doors is entering into the world of McGinness, but that each painting fully consumes your attention once you start looking. Like their name implies, each multi-layered screenprinted work from the Black Hole series has the remarkable ability to suck viewers in. Similar to a Jackson Pollack or a...
