Cool Hunting

Formed around the idea of a group of artists that work together at the intersection of craft and art, "Guild" is an upcoming exhibit at Gallerie Emmanuel Perrotin in Miami opening tomorrow, 12 May 2007.
Two years in the making, artist and curator Daniel Arsham assembled a guild comprised of himself, John Bucklin, Kenneth Andrew Mroczek, Dennis Palazzolo and Friends With You for the show. Exhibiting pieces that have ambiguous function like the Curtain Tapestry (above left), works exhibited include sculptures, blimps from Art Basel Miami Beach 2006(above right), large–scale water colors as well as additional works including a Guild poster created specifically for the exhibit.

Currently on display at the Ambach & Rice gallery in Seattle's artsy neighborhood of Ballard is a collection of works from Amsterdam-based artist Bas Louter. Louter uses ink and charcoal to create a chiaroscuro effect for his works, which conflate historical characteristics and imagined futures to suggest an adventure into an unknown destination—explaining the latter portion of the exhibition's title. The initial word, Dust,...
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...
