Cool Hunting Video Presents: Michael DeLucia by Cool Hunting Video
Following sculptor Michael DeLucia from his Brooklyn studio (shortly after completing studies in London) to his first gallery show, this video tells the story of a talented emerging artist's path.
When we first visited Mike early last year, he showed us his current works incorporating industrial materials (brooms, mops, chain link fences) and walked us through some of his influences and ideas. Last December, we caught up with him at the Manhattan gallery, Rivington Arms to talk about the experience of getting a show and what's next.

Cool Hunting Video Presents: Richard Dupont
For our 99th episode, we visit the Manhattan studio of Richard Dupont who makes arresting figurative work. His sculptures initially caught our eye when they made an appearance in our very first video at Art Basel and now Dupont's busy with his large-scale installation due to open at the Lever House next month. In this video he unmolds one of his distorted replicas of his body that he made using military scans, walking us through his process and some of the ideas that inform his work.

Adam McEwen: Switch and Bait
by Kelsey Keith Adam McEwen is irreverent, witty, and whip smart (like any British artist worth his salt) and "Switch and Bait," his latest show with veteran gallerist Nicole Klagsbrun, is no exception. The exhibition, which opened last week in an auxiliary space in New York's Chelsea district, was slyly promoted with a press release detailing the process of machined graphite. "Graphite's specific properties, such...
