Claudia Luthi’s Travel Report from NYC
On June 13, 2013 at 10 AM, I started my journey on an American Airlines flight to New York. I had a seat by the window, and the place next to mine was free so it made for a very comfortable trip. I flew right over the Nordkapp. It was a comfortable flight and there […]
State of the Book: New Work by Antonia Wright and Ruben Millares
It’s not a stretch to imagine the printed book becoming an endangered species in a society where 140 characters or less becomes the limit of knowledge consumption.

The gallery is brightened by Pancho Westeendarp’s dreamy cyan colorfield; 73 photographic prints scale the white wall, forming an anomalous shape. Victoria Burge paints and draws on cosmology prints […]
Schmatte
This show explores notions of the discarded and the distressed in the work of four artists: Josh Blackwell, Antonia Perez, Katherine Powers and Randy Wray. Josh Blackwell began collecting plastic bags from city streets and kitchen cupboards about six years ago. In the studio, the bags are fused shut and/or embroidered with yarn, deliberately thwarting […]
