    Jacob Hashimoto’s “Gas Giant”

    by Sara Cannon

I am absolutely stunned by the complexity of the installation as well fascinated by the intricate patterns. I wish I could see this stunning work in person. /p> Check out the…

    by Sara Cannon

    Olafur Eliasson has as fascinating installation at Denmark's Louisiana Museum of Modern Art opening up tomorrow 8/20/14. As seen on Dezeen, the landscape of rocks and riverbeds contrast against the bright white stark walls. This is a super interesting installation for Eliasson. I've seen a lot of his spatial-installation work, but none have drawn so much on nature.…

    by Sara Cannon

    When Isaac and I were in Berlin at the Flea Market in MauerPark (Flohmarkt), We stumbled across Kurihara Takuya selling his work from a table in the middle of the isle. His collages and works were captivating. We bought a good number of pieces from him and I have three sitting above my desk to this day. His work is so detailed, combining collage, ink and…

    Berlin Gallery Week: Bjoern Dahlem

    by Sara Cannon

    This weekend I had the insane pleasure of peeking in on Gallery Weekend Berlin. I got to see some incredible art. One artist in particular stood out to me: Bjöern Dahlem at Galerie Guido W. Baudach. His installation "Orbits of High Velocity Starts" is this gorgeous tangled floating wood with balls of various light fixtures at the terminals. The way the wood curved…

Artist Kurihara Takuya

by Sara Cannon

When Isaac and I were in Berlin at the Flea Market in MauerPark (Flohmarkt), We stumbled across Kurihara Takuya selling his work from a table in the middle of the isle. His collages and works were captivating. We bought a good number of pieces from him and I have three sitting above my desk to this day. His work is so detailed, combining collage, ink and paint on paper. Absolutely lovely and stunning. I am going to be keeping an eye out for shows. From his website: Kurihara, born Japan 1983 Working with a mix of classical and modern techniques and using a combination of acrylic paint, ink, marker pen, fine liner and collage he produces works that are both abstract and defined, playful yet concrete. Free flowing splatters of color are painstakingly refined with tiny line work, patterns and carefully masking taped color fields. His painted works float on meticulously prepared canvases, often with multiple layers of subtly textured under-painting, while his drawings on paper flow between minimalism and graphic design. …
