Awesome paintings from Los Angeles (via Japan) based artist Misato Suzuki. Misato’s work is included in a great group show right now in Dallas along side one of our favorite Wisconsin artists, Eddie Villanueva.
Absolutely love these street art installations by Los Angeles based artist and designer Paige Smith, who also goes by the moniker A Common Name. She likens stumbling upon one of these installations to finding a hidden treasure, and we couldn’t agree more.
Detailed, sweet and thoughtful drawings/paintings by an artist we featured at our old gallery, Minneapolis based Erika Olson Gross.
Beautiful neon sign installations by South Korean artist Lee Jung. Found via Colossal.
BLOOM by Anna Schuleit
Massachusetts Mental Health Center, Boston, MA
November 14-17, 2003
Created to address the persistent absence of flowers in psychiatric hospital settings, BLOOM consisted of 28,000 potted, blooming flowers, selected and sorted by colour and placed throughout four floors of the historic building. The basement hallways were carpeted in live sod, for viewers to walk on. The old public announcement system was used to play recorded sounds of the building from the days leading up to its closing.

We’ve been big fans of Milwaukee based artist Julia Schilling’s work for a while now. We even showed her at our old gallery back in 2008. Her new series of work depicting animals swimming from above is just sweet and amazing.
Fun and smart collages by Spanish artist Marcos Martinez.
