Cool Hunting
A one-night only art show, Stacks features works by 21 emerging artists all working within the same parameter—a cube. Stacked to create a collectively-curated "Exquisite Corpse meets totem poles," the cubes are made from a variety of materials, and range in style from "defiantly poetic to graphically visionary." Though there's no word on the artists yet, works are affordably priced from $50-$500. Curated by Nathan Pickett, check out Stacks at Josée Bienvenu Gallery on Sunday, 15 October 2006. From it's New York debut, the show will then travel to other locations, each stop inspiring a different arrangement of the cubes and creating a new perspective on the work.

Featuring work by artists who are "altering materials and repurposing objects that prompt viewers to investigate the act of looking and perceiving," the unifying theme behind the impending group exhibition "Deviate" may be a little broad but it makes for a show that speaks to CH's penchant for the obsessively subversive. The nine artists represented take a largely conceptual approach using a diverse collection...
We're always fascinated when the surreal and the practical intersect. That would explain our past delight with Blendie, a blender that responds to growling noises and is included in the upcoming group show, Untethered. Opening at Eyebeam next week in Manhattan the exhibit is promises a myriad of creative curiosities. With 15 artists on display, this season's offerings include a a photocopier that reads...
by Ariston Anderson A prime example of the way global economic anxieties are already showing up in art is the group show "Boxed In," the latest presented by Plaztik Mag and Factory Fresh, in which artists created their cardboard dream home. Alison Corrie, best known for her gorgeous design work and delicate collages, built a beautiful gyspy caravan, inspired by those she saw on her...
by Laura Neilson and Tamara WarrenAutos, art and transit collide when Robin Rhode's painting made using BMWs as paintbrushes and four of BMW's iconic "Art Cars" are put on show at Grand Central Terminal starting tomorrow. The project dates back to 1975 when French race car driver and art collector Hervé Poulain dreamed it up and commissioned his friend Alexander Calder to reconceive his race...
by Tamara Warren If the best work comes from life experience, then Michel Auder married well. Or at least he married intriguing people—Viva, a Warhol superstar and photographer Cindy Sherman—who added color to his already vibrant life story. The Paris-born artist and filmmaker has done just about everything interesting in the past forty years. To prove it, he kept a diary of his days...
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...
