Excellent Exhibitions Abroad and Away | Anagnorisis Picks

On my blog, I usually like to focus on what’s going on in New York and its nearby areas, not only because I’m selfish and live here, but also because I feel as though most of the blogs that cater to our New Contemporary genre and all its branches, focus largely on the west coast. But there are two interesting exhibitions coming up that I would feel remiss not to mention because of the...

Artful Weekend Plans | Anagnorisis Picks

This weekend is going to be a wonderful one for the arts – there’s a lot going on and I won’t be able to come close to touching upon most of it. This is the second of the two art fair seasons in New York, so beyond the various art fairs to attend, there are also lots of events and exhibitions planned in concurrence. Here are my recommendations for the weekend along with links to a couple of other more comprehensive guides.

Art New York This Week | Anagnorisis Picks

It would seem that you all preferred my periodic art show picks emails over my glitchy calendar. Well, I suppose I don't blame you. So, here are my picks for this week - mostly what I'll be going to this very Saturday, February 23rd, including an exhibition all about scent.

Babble Report | New Prints by Nicoletta Ceccoli

Nicoletta Ceccoli‘s porcelain creatures, in their odd, sticky-sweet surroundings seem a bit like illustrations for children’s books. The artist’s palette of childhood pastels and ghostly whites, softly rendered into gentle forms, are nurturing and inviting. This lure gives way quickly, revealing the uncanny, visceral qualities of her creatures’ gestures and facial expressions, belying their innocence and emotively exploring the confusion of adulthood. They are, in their surreality, uncomfortably real.

Swept Away

Thanks to Hurricane Sandy, New York is going to have to get used to a new way of life. Beneath the gargantuan problem that its subways have never been flooded this extensively before, and its beachfronts have largely been safe from floods until now, it’s art market bubble may have just burst. New York and its inhabitants are tough folk. We'll be fine...just different. Links to info on gallery damage inside.

Babble Report | The Photography of Prog Rock Icon

I recently interviewed bassist Tony Levin about this new digital photography project amongst other things for the O Positive Festival Blog. Tony's shots are candid and evince the surrealistic madness that comes upon a musician who has been on tour for months, trapped in the “…lobby life of hurry-up-and-wait…for the odd shaped keys that lead to new soap and envelopes.”
