Cool Hunting
by Kyle Small
Running through the end of August at Johansson Projects in Oakland, Radialvedic is a group show featuring the visually stunning works of Jill Gallenstein, Kana Tanaka and Kristina Lewis. Working with different artistic mediums—ink drawings, glass sculptures and finally imaginative transformation of everyday objects—each artist brings to light similar issues and themes regarding nature, elasticity and form.
The show effectively molds together the different art forms exploring "the subtleties of intrigue with simple objects, zippers, needles, ink and glass, transformed into complex and curious spectacles."

Founded in 1994 by Marsea Goldberg in her 10x10 design studio, the gallery has since grown to be at the forefront of fine art as well as to...
We're always fascinated when the surreal and the practical intersect. That would explain our past delight with Blendie, a blender that responds to growling noises and is included in the upcoming group show, Untethered. Opening at Eyebeam next week in Manhattan the exhibit is promises a myriad of creative curiosities. With 15 artists on display, this season's offerings include a a photocopier that reads...
A new exhibition opened this month at one of Scotland's most avant-garde galleries, Dundee Contemporary Arts.
