Cool Hunting
Tra Selhtrow by Tim Yu
Grant Barnhart, the artist also known as Tra Selhtrow, put up some new limited edition prints at Duistudio yesterday. His compositions offer distorted narratives inhabited by lucid animals, humans and often a cross between the two. His latest body of work deals with wars in general and takes historical images/icons and places them into one scene. He comments, "Living in a western culture bombarded with images of the Middle East and happenings around the world I wonder when honor and theatrics stopped playing a role in world triumph. Armor turned into fatigues and God turned from beasts and monsters into man." Click on images above for an enlarged view.
All new prints are well priced at $20-$70 and available at Duistudio.

Interview with Erik Madigan Heck of Nomenus Quarterly
by Laura Neilson In 2007, 23-year-old Erik Madigan Heck founded Nomenus Quarterly with the kind of arrogant fervor that only someone at that age could pull off. And perhaps it was that very same aplomb that made the multifaceted art and fashion publication so notoriously successful. Just one glance at the archives' roster of featured artists, designers and contributors, including Dries Van Noten, Helmut...

Eric Yahnker: Naughty Teens/Garbanzo Beans
With his keen eye for pop culture and irreverent humor, Eric Yahnker's current exhibition of highly-detailed pencil drawings and conceptual sculptures at Ambach & Rice Gallery taps into a zeitgeist also seen in the work of contemporaries like Mathew Cerletty and Karl Haendel. Posing as a serious act, it's a wink-wink-nudge-nudge approach that's unabashedly "now," sharing a sensibility with Leslie Nielsen in "Airplane" and,...
