Program’s most recent show, ÜBERleben, closes today before the winter holidays; Christmas being perhaps one of the most important of the German Feiertagen. Strings of lights dot the city streets and steaming pots of spiced wine can be had at the ubiquitous, festive outdoor markets. But the spirit at Program is a little less heartwarming […]

Doug Fishbone recycles the language of the mass media in order to critique some of the more unseemly aspects of life in the modern age. Appropriating photographic and digital imagery from the Internet, he constructs witty and occasionally shocking film narratives from apparently unrelated material, questioning the way the mind processes controversial visual images and […]

Melanie Prapopoulos’ innovatively installed exhibition, Through Her Eyes at Broadway Gallery was a surprising and imaginative treat. The ambience at the opening was lively and vivacious. Born Europe, but raised in the US, Melanie Prapopoulos is the true definition of an international artist. In keeping with this multicultural outlook, much of her work draws from […]

Each is a beautiful example of the dichotomy between the natural world and mankind’s devastating effect on it.     Courtesy of the artist.

Alexandre Singh: Hey so when I was at school, people used to throw sticks of glue up at the ceiling, did they do that in Portugal? They would stay up there for weeks or months at a time and then fall off in the middle of class. I feel that spitballs are almost the same […]

Back to the future. It is the year 1988. A year where it all kind of began and ended for me. Gerhard Richter’s brilliant resilient position of “having it all yet declaring nothing” approach to painting was all the rage. This seemed the only ace up the artist’s sleeve.

Dmitry Komis: You have used the image of the American flag before in your work. In Flag Girls, you reimagine a found photograph of women draped in American flags. Can you talk a little bit about how this work came about, and the challenge of turning a still photograph into a performative video piece? Jen […]
