Andy Rementer makes paintings that make me happy. Check out some new works and a quick interview at It's Nice That.

And if you live in Europe somewhere, go to The Hague to see his show.

"Simply put, HOTBOX is a bread truck turned into an art gallery. It has a small gallery space inside and the outside is a free for all. "

I see the hotbox near my house all the time, but I have never seen it action. Just watch the damn video and then support the US Tour via Kickstarter.

Chad Kouri and Ina Weise are doing a one of a kind wallpaper installation at the Wow-house show at Johalla Projects. 

Check it out this Friday, March 2, 2012 from 7-10 pm

Wow-house is a group show featuring visual artists reinterpreting their esthetic through object-based mediums such as furniture and the decorative arts.  The pieces are coming down off the wall and entering the physical space for interaction and function. Anchored by the unique furniture design of Eric Johnson (Thistle Objects), this show promises to reinvent the notion of the household vernacular and showcase the selected artists within a context that they are exploring for the first time at Johalla Projects. This is not a genre or a movement. This is Wow-house.

KIN: someone or something of the same or similar kind.

Our kin is a web of social relationships - our clan, our tribe, our people. As we have evolved through time, the desire for family becomes centered less on the nexus of blood relations, and has shifted to shared cultural interests as a base for social identity. KIN is an exhibition of photographic work depicting groups of kindred souls, whose basis of kinship seeks to broaden the very definition of the word. Focusing largely on youth culture, KIN explores some of the ties that bind us: family, neighborhood, sport and music. Featuring artists Andreas Laszlo Konrath, Brian Sorg, Christopher Semel, Gary Briechle, Jeffrey Wolin, Leasha Overturf and Paul Elledge. Curated by Jason Robinette.
