On Thursday morning, as thousands across America were still sleepy from protesting the non-indictment of officer Daniel Pantaleo in the death of Eric Garner, another set of protestors prepared to march for liveable wage. In solidarity with fast food workers in 189 cities all over the country, nearly a hundred people gathered outside Manhattan’s City […]
A set of about 50 Vietnam-era steel helmets, grazed by bullets in battle, now sit on display in the narrow Flatiron Prow Artspace on Fifth Avenue. They are wrapped in mementos, photos, and notes taken not by soldiers or the faceless victims of war, but by other, often unseen witnesses — war correspondents. The exhibition’s […]

After taking out all the ads on a New York City subway car and putting up their work instead, graffiti artists SKI and 2ESAE hosted a legal reception in Soho for “Product of UR Environment,” their latest exhibit. The duo presented a massive series of multi-media art that combined graffiti with graphic design, silk-screening and photography. (Check […]
Richard Prince has to be one of the most hated populist artists of all time. His work consistently hits the sweet spot of “pretentious” — because it conceptualizes a sort of “theft” — and “mainstream” — because his subjects are very popular (Sex, Drugs, Rock ‘n’ Roll).
