Cool Hunting
The Marshmallow Show, a one-night private viewing and auction of works this Sunday by Gregory Siff promises to be "an evening of beauty, madness, love and junkfood." The event will feature 37 new works by Siff, including the delightful junk food water colors shown after the jump. The works will be auctioned to benefit J.U.i.C.E. Justice By Uniting in Creative Energy, a charitable organization committed to providing free sessions in all elements of hip hop: word, music, art and dance. An "anti-L.A. show in the heart of L.A." the Marshmallow Show will take place at The Standard Hotel in Hollywood, and guests will be treated to a champagne toast and sugary treats at midnight.

Since our first mention of Kenichi Yokono in 2006, the Japanese artist has been working at a furious pace and garnering attention from gallerists and collectors alike. For the past three years, Mark Moore Gallery has been showing Yokono's work during the Pulse Contemporary Art Fairs, while in 2007 the gallery gave the artist his first solo show stateside. The forthcoming show at Mark...
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...
Take a moment to think about it, have you ever spoken with an Iraqi or Iraq vet? Addressing the fact that most of us have at least a few questions or curiosities about Iraq and that the country continues to feel foreign to even the most well-informed, "It Is What It Is: Conversations about Iraq," is a recent commission by Turner Prize-winning British artist...
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...
by Ariston Anderson In Chris Stain's first solo show, he brings a gritty New York rooftop to L.A.'s Carmichael Gallery, complete with a live pigeon coop. The Baltimore native builds his vision of inner city life through large-scale stencil installation as well as found objects.
