Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far by Lost At E Minor
Design genius Stefan Sagmeister is known colloquially as "god," and not just because of his amazing talent. He is also admired for his Robin Hood-like choice to work for good causes and his surprisingly down-to-earth, pleasure-to-work-with demeanor. Sagmeister's long awaited new book "Things I Have Learned in My Life So Far" is coming out soon, and the exhibit of the same title opens tonight at the uber-hip Soho gallery, Deitch. This monkey featured at right was a collaboration between Stefan Sagmeister and illustrator Monika Aichele.
Pre-order the book from Sagmeister or Amazon.

Having worked in jewelry design...

Deviate
Featuring work by artists who are "altering materials and repurposing objects that prompt viewers to investigate the act of looking and perceiving," the unifying theme behind the impending group exhibition "Deviate" may be a little broad but it makes for a show that speaks to CH's penchant for the obsessively subversive. The nine artists represented take a largely conceptual approach using a diverse collection...

Ryan McGinness Works
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...
