David Brady: Genesis by Brian Fichtner
Before relocating to Los Angeles, David Brady cut his teeth on the Colorado art scene, exhibiting at RULE Gallery, Gallery Sink, the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, and The Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver. Known primarily as a sculptor (in the broadest 21st Century view of the discipline), Brady is to have his second solo exhibition at L.A.'s High Energy Constructs opening tomorrow.
Titled "Genesis," the multidisciplinary exhibition will explore creation and existence through a myriad of materials such as custom wallpaper, bulletproof glass, industrial grade tow chain, acrylic fingernail tips, man-made crystals, and computer-generated models. Combining highly skilled craftsmanship with seductive form, if past work is to be any indication, this new show is a must-see.
Genesis Opening Reception: 2 February 2008, 7-9pm2 February-8 March 2008
990 N. Hill Street #180 Los Angeles, CA 90012 map

Jonathan Schipper: Irreversibility
With his high-concept mechanics, artist Jonathan Schipper's latest exhibition, "Irreversibility," is just as stunningly clever as the animatronic sculpture we watched him build a few years ago. Held at Brooklyn's Pierogi Gallery, the show is both a spectacle and showcase of recent sculptures and installations by Schipper, including "The Slow Inevitable Death of American Muscle," (pictured above) in which a live, head-on collision takes...

Kenichi Yokono: New Work
Since our first mention of Kenichi Yokono in 2006, the Japanese artist has been working at a furious pace and garnering attention from gallerists and collectors alike. For the past three years, Mark Moore Gallery has been showing Yokono's work during the Pulse Contemporary Art Fairs, while in 2007 the gallery gave the artist his first solo show stateside. The forthcoming show at Mark...

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....

David Ryan
I first fell for David Ryan's work after seeing a couple of small pieces in Mark Moore's booth at Scope New York last year. Now Ryan is back with a solo show in his signature style at Mark Moore Gallery in Santa Monica. (Click images for detail.) Ryan creates his very sculptural paintings by intricately stacking together brightly-painted pieces of MDF (medium-density fibreboard). I...

Caleb Neelon Is Working On It
Massachusetts-based artist Caleb Neelon is staging his first West Coast exhibition, "Caleb Neelon Is Working On It" at West Hollywood's Carmichael Gallery opening this weekend. The solo show includes several variations of his groupings of multi-colored Beech leaves against brushy backgrounds and marks, in Neelon's own words, "a new and very personal direction for me." Click above image for detail and see more after...

Jimenez Lai
A simple description of Jimenez Lai's work is difficult. Taking architectural plans and renderings, the Ohio-based artist brings them into the world of comics, drawings and models in two- and three-dimensions. The juxtaposition exposes the absurdity of CAD in comics and comics in CAD. (Click image for detail.) This isn't the first time Jimenez Lai has been written up but now he's breaking through...
