Fall Art Romp: Carbone and Stevens Roll Through the City
Like sugar induced hyper-active children, David and I went to the only place where grownups ring doorbells to see art: The Upper East Side. Were we tricked? Yes. Were we treated, yeah, that too. Our first stop was Michael Werner Gallery where their new and stunning second floor space houses a Peter Saul exhibition. This […]

Meridian Exhibition at New Tryon St. Gallery
The new Meridian exhibition at the recently launched Tryon St Gallery, (just a stone’s throw from London’s Saatchi gallery), explores the universal human fascination with finding our place in the world and recording it through maps and mapping. Attesting a human need to determine and record one’s position in the world, maps—and intangible concepts such as meridians—are instrumental in […]
Daryl Goh
My work situates the exploration of everyday life while combing through its little spaces of deeper meanings yet to be abstracted. I view them as incomplete fragments waiting to be reconstructed into a new product that not only brings aesthetics but interaction in a direct or indirect way. Each of my works call for the […]
Contour 6: Leasure, Discipline, and Punishment
Mechelen is a small city in Belgium, poised exactly half way between Brussels and Antwerp. Though it has a higher percentage of listed buildings than the better-known tourist magnet Bruges, for a long time, the city has been a hidden gem. Over the last couple of years, however, Mechelen has managed to put itself on […]

Christian Marclay at Paula Cooper
This new group of works consists of silk-screen on painted backgrounds, featuring onomatopoeias that evoke the sound of painting actions (SPLORCH! SLLURP! WHOOMPH!). Torn from comic book pages, collaged, blown up and printed on canvas and paper, the onomatopoeias extend Marclayʼs investigation into the relationship between sound and image, sampling elements from art and popular […]
Objects of Desire: The Lost Art of Challenging Art
As a repository of Dadaist ideas, the brilliant show at Blain/Di Donna, Dada and Surrealist Objects, represents what constitutes artistic re-interpretation. It brings back into focus the bankruptcy of contemporary artistic initiatives as nothing more than shameless re-invention. The “objects” in this elegantly-mounted show represent imaginative artifacts created between 1920 and 1969 (save for the […]
