TADO

LILY: THE LITTLEST CANNIBAL

A dynamic interplay of media, this special exhibition and exclusive toy release with acclaimed British artist-duo TADO comprises paintings, drawings and prints, along with wooden sculpture, installation, plush, and vinyl toys. Set in a slick, surreal enchanted landscape, Lily: The Littlest Cannibal is an anthropomorphized world, both vicious and adorable.

TEAM MACHO

KITSCHY, GAY, AND OVER IN A SECOND

Featuring Team Macho's most accomplished work to date, beloved subjects are resurrected with an expanded repertoire of oil, airbrush, resin, collage, lightboxes and typewriter art. Witty vignettes, hilariously inappropriate juxtapositions, inside jokes, détourned flea-market landscapes and subverted narratives collide.

     
 
OCT 3 - OCT 5, 2008

NOEL MIDDLETON

PLATONIC MATERIAL PLANE

A site-specific installation presented at the Gladstone Hotel for Nuit Blanche. Platonic Material Plane denotes the more fundamental connections shared between groups, their interpretations and sense of direction guided by the visible Sun. From within the twelve-sided chamber a new connection is made, away from the distraction of light.

     
 
NOV 6 - NOV 30, 2008

ANDREW WILSON

A WORLD'S HISTORY

Chronicling the mysterious history of an alternate world, Andrew Wilson's fantastical abstracted landscapes suggest the possibility of other worlds occurring simultaneously with our own. Past, present and future coalesce within this imagined topography.
