This Week’s Must-see Art Events: Choose Between Wes Anderson Fan Art and a Mud Pit

by Michael Anthony Farley and Corinna Kirsch on August 3, 2015

Jaimie Warren, “Self-portrait as Pennywise the Clown with the Blob, Jason, Freddy, Chucky, Leprechaun and Basketcase in re-creation of the Nativity scene from the Vyššì Brod Altarpiece (1350),” 2014

We have entered the sticky doldrums of New York in August. But although plenty of galleries are taking it slow this month, artists and institutions are creatively adapting their practices to beloved Summer pastimes—from a cookout at the Abrons Arts Center tomorrow to a nice, refreshing dip (in a mud pit) at The Palms Friday night. But if air conditioning is your thing, head to a cool, dark movie theater on Wednesday night for video art from the likes of Petra Cortright and Fake Injury Party. Unlike most CGI-filled Summer blockbusters, this is a benefit for the Bruce High Quality Foundation University. If all this weeknight relaxation has you ready to head back to the world of galleries by the time the weekend rolls around, check out solo shows from Joshua Caleb Weibley at Transfer and perpetual AFC favorite Jaimie Warren at American Medium. Stay hydrated, New York.

This Week’s Must-See Art Events: Live From Grand Rapids!

by Corinna Kirsch and Whitney Kimball on October 6, 2014

Cancel whatever you’re doing at 7 PM tonight, readers. Paddy Johnson will be critiquing the finalists of ArtPrize, in the 3D and time-based categories. (Peruse the finalists here. Watch the Livestream here.) The stakes are high; we expect some animated debate to light up twitter tonight.

And the rest of the week looks equally promising: fashion snarker Simon Doonan talks menswear, the New York Film Fest continues, and Philadelphia’s Vox Populi Gallery sees a weekend filled with Videofreex, Jeanine Oleson, and Jaimie Warren.

Friday Links: Follow the “No Exit” Signs

by Paddy Johnson and Corinna Kirsch on May 16, 2014

No Exit author Jean-Paul Sartre with a cat.

In the name of anarchy and art, the Counterforce collective vandalizes Google’s Frank Gehry-designed offices. The destruction may have been minimal. [ValleyWag]
Famous epitaphs! Charles Bukowski’s tombstone reads “Don’t Try.” [Wikiquote]
Here’s a video of a cat saving a boy from a dog attack. Hero cat! [TMZ]
South Africa’s National Art gallery’s first black museum curator has been axed under suspicious conditions. [Daily Maverick]
An Albertson’s clerk failed to double bag a magnum bottle of wine, and it broke the bag and the customer’s foot. Now, the woman is demanding $8.3 million in damages. [Courthouse News via @bhsutton]
In Toronto, it’s worth following the roads with “No Exit” signs, writes Shawn Micallef. Often times those dead ends lead to hiking trails, artist studios, and even hockey nets. [The Toronto Star]
A Detroit bankruptcy judge tells creditors they can’t take artworks off the walls of the Detroit Institute of Arts. They’d like to examine them for buyers they already have lined up, claiming they’ve “found buyers willing to pay more than $1 billion for parts or all of the collection; one wants all Chinese art.” [Boston Herald]
Jason Foumberg discusses the Art Institute’s “pay-to-play” model for acquiring contemporary art. For $150, anyone can join the museum’s Society for Contemporary Art; this allows them to cast a vote for which work they’d like to see join the museum’s collection. [Chicago Magazine]
Jaimie Warren gets a mostly positive review from Roberta Smith, who lauds her art-making, but says she could stretch her art farther with a little discipline. Where the work lacks discipline was never laid out, though, so this review doesn’t provide much insight. [The New York Times]
Prospect New Orleans announces their artist list for the upcoming biennial, to be held October 25, 2014 through January 25, 2015. [Prospect New Orleans via Hyperallergic]

Wednesday Links: Amenities for Shopping

by Paddy Johnson and Corinna Kirsch on April 16, 2014

Last week’s inaugural Silicon Valley Contemporary art fair was full of art dealers scrambling to figure out what type of art techies might like. Some, like K&M Art, thought techies might want to unload their bitcoins for art. [Medium]
Monday nights you can choose between watching reality TV like Ru Paul’s Drag Race or wrestling entertainment like Raw. It doesn’t matter what you choose; NPR argues that both shows are “essentially one and the same,” both performance art about gender. I’d like to agree, but there’s too much of a focus in this piece on wrestlers performing masculinity and drag queens performing femininity; WWE is full of nearly naked sequined wrestlers twisted into pretzel positions with their oiled-up partners. [NPR]
Art collector and dealer Daniel Wolf and artist and architect Maya Lin have an old jail in Yonkers. They’re planning to transform it into studio space and a gallery. No word whether the collection will be made available public, but even so, the piece is pitched as though it’s about the budding art scene of Yonkers. The only other artist they were able to cite out there is David Hammons. The best part of the piece is when they describe the lack of basic amenities on the waterfront as “shopping.” [The New York Times]
Lawsuit filed against Brooklyn landlords claims they were quick to kick out black residents to make room for white ones. [Gothamist]
For new media lovers: Link Art Center has some sweet-looking art available at Paddle8. [Paddle8]
Lindsay Preston Zappas describes Math Bass’s show at Overduin and Co. as an exercise in visual merchandising. Ouch. [Carets and Stick]
Sarah Jessica Parker interviewed Alex Katz; she filled in for Leonard Lopate. [NPR]
Exhibition A interviews an art collector who’s also an astronaut. The interview’s full of space talk, not so much art talk. [Exhibition A]
Pierre Huyghe joins Hauser & Wirth. Not sure what this means for his New York gallery; he’s currently represented by Marian Goodman. [AMA]
This month’s issue of e-flux journal is mostly about sex. Sex! [e-flux]
Jaimie Warren’s new show at The Hole gets a lauding write up from the Huffington Post. Critic Priscilla Frank is a fan. [The Huffington Post]

Wednesday Links! GDP Edition

by The AFC Staff on January 9, 2013

Don’t you want to know just how much money blue-chip galleries turn over each year? Here’s a list of unverified numbers from the top-selling art galleries this past year, and let’s just say, they’ve had enough money pass through their hands to stomp on the GDP of small, island countries. [Art Market Monitor]
Jaimie Warren is getting a show at The Hole, featuring her faux-celebrity-food photographs where she dresses up as food and celebrities at the same time. It’s full of bad puns like “Oreoprah” and “Jon Beignet Ramsey”. Plan to be confused. [Paper Mag]
Damien Hirst’s retrospective at the Tate Modern was the most popular solo show in Britain last year, of course. Here’s the requisite photograph of him in front of his work looking smug. [The Standard]
Gawker editor John Cook published the 446-page list of gun owners in New York City. He’s had it in his back pocket for two and a half years, because apparently, you’re completely within your rights to obtain it from the NYPD. Cook cites section 400.00 of the Penal Law of New York as stipulating that their addresses be on public record, as well, but that you must take the NYPD to court for them. [Gawker]
Does anyone give a shit that art.sy changed its url to artsy.net thanks to unrest in Syria? Given that the decision was obviously coming, we certainly don’t, but thanks to every art press online outlet for dutifully covering that story. [The Internet]
Art.sy is changing its URL to Artsy.net! [Artsy]
“Regarding Warhol” is going to the Warhol Museum, but apparently they’re planning to make it good. How come nobody thought of that before? [CultureGrrl]
Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg were making each other’s work. [Greg.org]
Kickstarter made its list of most successful campaigns of 2012. What we learned: 10 percent of Sundance films are funded by Kickstarter, Stanford now teaches a Kickstarter class, and air quality egg makes fighting pollution awesome. [Kickstarter]

This Week’s Must-See Art Events: The AFC Goth Benefit and More

by Michael Anthony Farley on April 17, 2017

The time has finally come. Our Goth Benefit is here. We’ll be converting Collapsable Hole into a goth wonderland, complete with drag performers, surprise guests, and options such as handcuffs for couples. (We’re also having a goth couple outfit contest, so plan accordingly). If last year’s benefit was any indication, this is basically going to be the party of the year.

Wednesday, nurse your hangover with a likely-nipple-tastic Betty Tompkins solo show at Marlborough Contemporary. Other highlights this week include Siebren Versteeg’s digital paintings at bitforms on Thursday, the annual Seven on Seven conference at the New Museum on Saturday, and Sunday’s open studios at the Studio Museum in Harlem.

Don’t forget: Buy your Goth Opera tickets now!
