Audrey Kawasaki: Mayoi Michi by Brian Fichtner
“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 2005, Kawasaki has met with tremendous demand exhibiting in solo and group shows over the past two years. To wit, all 17 paintings featured in this new exhibit have been pre-sold.

Bill McMullen: Hype, Hustle, Rip-Off
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...

It Is What It is: Conversations About Iraq
Take a moment to think about it, have you ever spoken with an Iraqi or Iraq vet? Addressing the fact that most of us have at least a few questions or curiosities about Iraq and that the country continues to feel foreign to even the most well-informed, "It Is What It Is: Conversations about Iraq," is a recent commission by Turner Prize-winning British artist...

Chris Stain: Out on the Roof Counting Pigeons

The Baltimore native builds his vision of inner city life through large-scale stencil installation as well as found objects.

Asgar/Gabriel: Bucolica Obscura
Since 2005, the young Vienna-based artists Daryoush Asgar and Elisabeth Gabriel of Asgar/Gabriel, have been collaborating on a radically contemporary form of figurative painting. Drawing upon historical movements such as baroque, pop art, and abstract expressionism, while referencing contemporary developments in graffiti and photo-realism, the duo create intricately layered canvases in which linear narrative falls prey to the chaos of our image saturated times....

Buff Monster: The Sweetest Thing
L.A.-based artist Buff Monster is doing what he does best (bubbly, mostly pink creatures and shapes) for his latest show, "The Sweetest Thing," opening next week at Culver City's Corey Helford Gallery. Influences like "heavy metal, porn, Japanese kawai culture, and ice cream" are evident in his creepy-cute compositions which often feature a character, the "Happy Squirter," made of breast-shaped parts with cherries frequently...
