With new works from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and China, Tiger Translate is a group exhibition featuring 25 emerging Asian artists that are redefining contemporary Asia through their artwork and interpretations. Featuring contributions by Stephen Lau and Jing, among others, the nomadic exhibit is in its second year. Following 2006 stints in Dublin, Shanghai and Auckland, the latest installment, "Merge," opens this Saturday, 31 March 2007, in New York City at Xchange.
With live performances and DJs, Merge includes contributions from the international design collective Surface to Air, creator of interactive light installations James Clar and designer Mary Ping.

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 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...
