Architecture, Art
The Gopher Hole is a new project space in Hoxton co-founded by Aberrant Architecture & Beatrice Galilee. An exhibition at London's Gopher Hole gallery on the results of Project Heracles opened on July 21

For the first exhibition, ‘About a minute’, 15 artists, architects, designers, poets and writers will interpret the potential of a minute. Each work in this show was chosen for its thoughtful, provocative or playful response to the time through various mediums and orders. This plurality is key to the curatorial philosophy of the Gopher Hole: interrogating popular culture across disciplinary borders.

ISIDRO BLASCO: TILTED.

Installation at Smack Mellon [NYC] USA. September 24 - October 30
metalocus, JOSÉ JUAN BARBA
Art
Isidro Blasco is a great artist and a good friend. Just look over his career to realize the value of their work that we have collected on numerous occasions since the start of METALOCUS. This new exhibition, as part of the DUMBO Arts Festival, allows us to come back to work in up to October 30 in Brooklyn. If you are or go through New York, do not miss it.

For the show at Smack Mellon titled Tilted he created perspectival fragmentations of Smack Mellon’s gallery space alongside a prismatic recreation of a DUMBO streetscape. Isidro Blasco took photographs of DUMBO from multiple perspective points and combined them to create mosaic-like patterns which he then mounted onto a three dimensional construction built from wooden slats. Projections that cast shadows of the visitors of the show on the gallery wall add...

On exhibition
En los lienzos de Marián se dan cita los ingredientes de la receta histórica del destilado cubo- futurista de la vanguardia rusa: una parte de cubismo francés con mucho Léger, otra de futurismo italiano, unas buenas rodajas de primitivismo ruso servidas por Larionov y mucha escarcha helada de metafísica Zaum y trans-mental.

Yuko Shimizu

Gestalten.
metalocus, JOSÉ JUAN BARBA
Art, Design, Publications
The exceptional illustrator Yuko Shimizu creates her work at the intersection of traditional Japanese graphic prints with surreal comic art. The award-winning New York-based artist draws her basic forms and figures with calligraphy brushes and later digitally supplements them with additional colors and backgrounds. This technique results in elegant and harmoniously composed creative visions and science-fiction fantasies, which are often erotically charged and combine the best of American pop and Japanese comic culture.

The very first monograph from Gestalten.

It is official! Her very first monograph is coming out from acclaimed German design/art publisher Gestalten in fall. "They have just recently announced the release on their website. It is her dream come true". Below are the cover image as well as...
