John Chamberlain r i p


I just read the devastating news that John Chamberlain passed away. One of my absolute favorite sculptures, and the major influence to many of my favorite sculptures working today. A truly sad loss for the galaxy.

Artist Spotlight: E.V Day



E.V Day was a name i didn't see around for a while, so i was excited to see her work floating around in the recent weeks. This NY born sculptor and installation artist, explores among other things, feminism; doing so in a quit confrontational manner. I originally was attracted to her work because a lot of her pieces share a similar aestethic to Cronenberg's visual leanings, not to say she doesn't have a style all her own. I don't think Cronenberg would approach an exhibition at the Whitney by filling the ceiling with resin coated thongs.
