Brothers, artists and Colorado natives Andrew and Peter Sutherland are having their first ever show together, called "Amateur Hour" and opening tonight at NYC's ATM gallery. The title of the show celebrates the time we live in now and the line between professionals and amateurs.

The thought comes from the duo who are psyched that people are doing it themselves—making music on their computers at home, taking pictures with a point and shoot or recording news on their phones on the street. For this show, the brothers worked in a variety of mediums including video, video stills, photography, sculpture, found objects and collage. Peter Sutherland says, “Come on down and meet the whole family. Mom's gonna be there. It is going to be a brodeo!”

David Capra: Nativity
Australian artist David Capra has an exhibition kicking off at Sydney's Mori Gallery this week . Titled Nativity, the show will feature "a garden of pom poms, rainbow paper towers, lakes of melted wax, caves of crinkled-up paper and Barbie dolls dressed as Catholic saints." It was inspired by a recent year long excursion Capra took through Europe: "I came across many nativity scenes...
John Arsenault: Filthy Gorgeous
For a photographer whose work is full of the best kind of contradictions—fiction and fact, banality and exoticism, sexuality and domesticity—the title "Filthy Gorgeous" is apt for John Arsenault's upcoming solo show. A series of self portraits, the work is unabashedly self-focused showing a range of emotions, scenarios and levels of undress. A playful kind of humor runs throughout, almost as if Arsenault's sharing...
