subjectivity

Daniel Arsham

Had met Daniel in New York one evening.

Martin Creed

Mr Creed, if that really is your name,

Robert Seidel

Robert Seidel has just sent us information on his latest work, these living paintings in Jena, Germany seem to me to be physical manifestations of the internal contents. Makes me understand how dull and dumb most exteriors are, and how irrelevant they are to the ideals or contents of the building, just a thought. Thanks Robert.

Untitled_Projects

Conrad Bakker's Untitled Projects  appear to be one of the most inspiring series of projects that I've seen this year. His selection and location of mimicry also the roughness of these simulacrums add a distort that for me is the key.

We should do something with this guy.

Yoko Ono

Notions of art and place, the location of art, surely all art is about a way of seeing about life, and how we interpret it. Thanyou Yoko.

Gilbert & George

Iconic,humble, irreverent, thoughtfull, sensitive anarchic, ordered, catalogued and uncatagorizable. Just some of the reasons why both  Mr Gilbert and Mr George hold a special place in our heart. Met them briefly the other morning, but Tania spent an hour with them the day before, you can listen to that exchange  here in the next few days.

Apparently the show which was curated by Jan Debbaut was over 200 pieces when it showed in the Tate modern, here in San Francisco we're down to about 80, but don't let that put you off, it's at the deYounge for the next few months.

Michele Pred

Michele Pred's work inspires a second look to itself and the materials appropriated. Strong and beautiful.

Charles Linder

Charles Linder's GHOSTANG

Charles Linders mixedmessages

After just reading McCarthy's The Road I'm more than touched by the notion of our contemporary worlds seen as arcane histories.

Damien Hirst

Hirst's new work at Gagosian incorporates Larkin, butterflies and gothic stained glass, could he get more English.

Craig Fisher

Tonight, opening at Rokeby Gallery London.
they say

Craig Fisher's second solo exhibition at Rokeby, Hold Your Fire, is an ambitious installation that develops previous concerns. On the ground floor of the gallery Fisher presents what appears to be a weapons amnesty. Numerous weapons of varying sizes are carefully and formally laid out as if for inspection. And inspect you might, because each piece of military hardware is in fact meticulously crafted from utilitarian materials and fabrics embellished with ribbons and buttons.
