In North London, the Seventeen gallery presents British artist Peter J. Evan's first solo exhibition, "Feedbacker," at this Hackney arthouse showcasing his precise drawings and sculptures that are always more than the sum of their parts. Evans creates intricate pieces built upon simple repetitive actions.
At the centerpiece of this exhibit, scheduled to run from 5 September though 13 October, is the Waveformer which rises from the gallery's polished floor to create a sense of waveforms that while formed from solid wood, ebbs and flows to create the sensation of kinetic energy pulsating at the viewer's feet.
Having recently toured in Exeter, after its stop in London, Evans's pieces head north next year for a showing at Newcaste-Upon-Tyne's Workplace gallery.

by Laurice Parkin The video art of Saskia Olde Wolbers is transfixing to watch not only for the dreamlike fluidity accompanied by surreal narrative, but also to see the intensely complex handmade models that the artists films. These miniature sets combine both the architectural space and uniquely constructed parts to bring the artist's imaginative landscape to life. Unpopulated and desolate, the worlds are beautiful, strange...
After exhibiting up and down the eastern seaboard, Brooklyn-based sculptor Mark Andreas has crossed the East River to make his Manhattan debut. Andreas' Reactive Sculpture Series includes the hulking 400-pound Seed Spreader (pictured), an intimidating machine equipped with three-foot spinning blades. It brilliantly expresses the fear associated with the industrialization of mass food production that, in the words of the artist, “conceptually speaks to...
A look at the creative energy in modern China, China Design Now chronicles the recent cultural rebirth brought on by a combination of global influences and the rediscovery of China's pre-Socialist traditions. Opening 15 March 2008 at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the exhibit explores three cities beginning with Shenzhen, where graphic designers have been experimenting with new concepts since the 1990s....
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.
