Untethered by Jacob Resneck
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 the night sky; a PDA turned guitar; and a piano that plays the Internet. Kind of sounds like a page out of CH.

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...

Stacey Steers: Phantom Canyon
Stacey Steers' animated film "Phantom Canyon" was created from over four thousand handmade collages incorporating the images from Eadweard Muybridge's famous series of photographs from 1887 called "Human and Animal Locomotion." In this film, which is intended to mirror how we all find meaning in our experiences, a curious woman goes on a surrealistic journey with an alluring bat-winged man. The process used to...

Vanessa Chakour: Innerscapes
Artist, athlete, and activist Vanessa Chakour's abstract artwork is a vivid display of her stream of consciousness on canvas. With bold colors and shapes, her curious pieces are harmonious but come about through the chaotic interaction of an evolving sense of self and artistic expression. Her first one-woman exhibition entitled "Innerscapes" opens tonight at the Ambrosia Gallery in New Rochelle, NY. Innerscapes Opening reception:...

Swoon: Switchback Cities of Switchback Sea
by Ariston Anderson The petite Pratt graduate, Swoon, has quickly climbed through the ranks of street art, raising the bar by using art as politics. A mainstay at the likes of Deitch, MoMA and the Brooklyn Museum of Art, her latest project might be her biggest yet. With the backing of Deitch, Swoon recently launched "Swimming Cities of Switchback Sea," a two-part exhibit merging...

Walton Ford
For years I've been completely in love with Walton Ford's meticulously detailed watercolors of animals, so you might imagine that I was practically giddy to see his new work now on view at Paul Kasmin Gallery. On first glance Ford's paintings might be mistaken for 19th century nature illustrations, but beyond the flawlessly rendered historical aspect of the paintings, the images often integrate both...
