Nick Cave 'For Now' at Mary Boone Gallery
04 October 2011 by
RxArt paid a visit to For Now at Mary Boone Gallery, part of the Soundsuit exhibition by friend and artist Nick Cave. Part Where the Wild Things Are, part Hayao Miyazaki, the show offers a glimpse into a world of fantastic and surreal characters. The suits, wearable sculptures up to 8 feet tall, are made out of wood, fur, yarn, stuffed animals, and every found object imaginable.
The sculptor and performance artist has two shows running simultaneously – For Now at Mary Boone and Ever-After at Jack Shainman. See both while you still can!

23-foot High, Yellow Teddy Bear
21 April 2011 by
If you’re walking along Park Avenue and see a 23-foot high, yellow teddy bear slumped under a gigantic lamp, don’t be alarmed. There is not a giant little girl strolling around looking for her lost teddy bear. It is the work of New York-based Swiss artist, Urs Fischer. The giant yellow bear will be on display for five months in midtown Manhattan from next week and will be a highlight of the Post-War & Contemporary sale on May 11 at Christie’s.
Stop by the Seagram Building at 375 Park Avenue, between 52nd and 53rd Streets in Midtown Manhattan and say hello to the giant cuddly yellow bear.

Julia Chiang’s “One of a Kind”
12 April 2011 by
In concordance with Julia Chiang’s wonderful installation at Half Gallery, Exhibition A has released a limited edition print of Julia Chiang’s “One of a Kind” piece. Don’t miss out on this great print and head over to the Exhibition A website.
via Exhibition A:
One of a Kind was originally made in 2009 and existed as a temporary 4’ x 8’ sculpture where the Ring Pops were left to melt over a 2 week period. These installation pieces don’t last long in any specific state, but they continually change and leave a mark on whatever surface comes in the way of the melting candy. Here Julia takes a photo of that installation and presents it as a print.

20 January 2011 by
RxArt friend and supporter Brian Donnelly, aka KAWS, had a great 2010. Last year we saw everything from his successful solo exhibition at the The Aldrich Museum, his newest coveted vinyl toy releases to a signature clothing line, Original Fake. Not to mention that KAWS released a book about his outstanding work detailing his early works, commercial products, and insight into his world.
The start of 2011 for KAWS picks up right where 2010 left off with another great collaborative effort with The Standard Hotel.
KAWS lights up The Standard Hotel by literally leaving his mark on the light bulbs! It is a collection of 3 light bulbs - Red, Purple, and Green filaments bearing the KAWS’ signature XX.
