Cool Hunting
Working exclusively in white, Korean-born artist Nanan's nature-themed window art is currently decorating five different storefronts in downtown Manhattan (see below for locations) through 30 June 2007. Her delicate patterns draw "attention to the threshold between interior and exterior," adding spiderweb-like detail to planes of glass. Check out her illustration work for the likes of MTV, adidas, the W Hotel and other stores here.

"Actus Reus" is the debut solo exhibition of Tamara Kostianovsky, an Israeli artist raised in Argentina and currently living in Brooklyn. The show consists of life-sized animal carcasses painstakingly reconstructed using second-hand clothing, which are all former pieces from the artist's actual wardrobe. The patchwork constructions adopt a remarkably grotesque quality, hanging from meat hooks in an antiseptic gallery space. The exhibition's Latin title...
Fans of Pee Wee’s Playhouse, RAW and SLASH magazines and the comic character Jimbo know and love the work of Gary Panter. You probably know it too, having seen his “jagged lines and surreal cartoons” in magazines, on TV and on the internet too. “Pictures from the Psychedelic Swamp: 1972 – 2001” a micro-mini retrospective of thirty years of drawings, sculptures, painting and installations...
This time around we chose to cover the Whitney Biennial with help from the museum's exhibition designer, Mark Steigelman. Last week's video on Olaf Breuning included a glimpse of his Biennial installation at the Park Avenue Armory (an off-site component that's new this year) and this episode is a select survey of the works by the 50-odd artists showing at the Whitney. Mark explains the...
One would think a life out in Arizona would produce imagery of arid deserts and funny little plants that grow under such conditions. But Joe Sorren's paintings speak of hope, innocence and another world, with the bright sun rising high into the clouds over an endless ocean of dreams. Sorren's new painting "In the Morning, in the Tide," will show at Alix Sloan's new...
“Mayoi Michi” is a solo exhibit for Audrey Kawasaki that opened over the weekend and runs through next month at the Copro Nason Gallery in Santa Monica, California. The exhibition will highlight a new collection of Audrey's ethereal oil on wood paintings, along with a series of rare giclee prints on archival paper. (Click images for detail.) Previously noted on Cool Hunting in December...
Pete Fowler's world is full of noisy guitars, big hair and cute monsters, all seen through very brightly-colored lenses. We've mentioned the cult graphic artist's work before with toys such as Action Man and his Be@rbrick, but his idiosyncratic style comes through to no better effect than in the new exhibition of paintings that opens today in London at the Stolen Space gallery. The...
