NYC Gallery end of the year shows
Though most of these shows have ended they are worth making you aware of.
I am a huge fan of Simen Johan’s photographs of animals. And the most recent show at Yossi Milo Gallery (which is changing its location in the New Year) includes works from the series “Until the [...]
Sanford Biggers: Sweet Funk-An Introspective
This exhibition, on view in the main rotunda of the museum, shows Sanford’s work made from 2002-2009. I thoroughly enjoyed this show, not only because I like Sanford’s work and own one of his pieces, but also because it is small which allows the viewer to spend ample time digesting the [...]
Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis
I always enjoy the exhibitions at CAM because they often introduce me to artists I am unfamiliar with. And if I do know the artist, after visiting I often learn something new and look at his/her oeuvre in a whole new light. While I was pleasantly surprised [...]

Cattelan is an irreverent artist who is never afraid to critique authority. This survey of his work is unlike any I have seen before.

Frieze Week in London
Well, I have been a little busy so I hope you will forgive me for not posting this sooner. It was a bit insane in London with a great deal to see in a few short days. For the first time in a long while, I did not manage to see everything [...]

Unlimited Ocean at the Sullivan Galleries is a typical work by Wolfgang Laib; however, there is nothing typical about his work. 30,000 piles of rice (and a few made of pollen) have been meticulously placed on the gallery floor by the artist and SAIC student and alumni assistants during his ten-day residency at the School [...]
Jay Shinn has studios in both Dallas and New York and I have been interested in seeing his work for some time. Since the second grade Jay has known he wanted to be an artist. He experimented using oil, tempura, and pencil to make both figurative and abstract works, however, it was in the ninth [...]
