DAMIEN HIRST FOR SUPREME

Posted on 2009-04-20

The Damien Hirst For Supreme skateboard decks have just dropped and they’ve given me a beautiful headache. Hirst, best known for his Spin paintings made at random on a spinning circular surface, and his now iconic, graphic Spot paintings that depict rows of randomly-colored circles has collaborated with Supreme and designed three skateboard decks. Skate or Die.

DON’T COME

We’ve missed this exhibition at Don’t Come Gallery in Melbourne but I love Krink’s work and its still worth checking the images on Don’t Comes website. Alongside his drop paintings and applications, the artist produced some custom KR Krink fire extinguishers and they came out sick.

GREENE & GREENE

Posted on 2009-04-13

The Huntington, in partnership with The Gamble House, USC, presents the most comprehensive exhibition ever undertaken on the work of Arts and Crafts legends Charles Sumner Greene and Henry Mather Greene — the first such exhibition to travel outside of California.

A ‘New and Native’ Beauty: The Art and Craft of Greene & Greene” presents for the first time a diverse range of Greene and Greene work—conceptual sketches, drawings, furnishings and fixtures, in many cases long-separated from their houses and from each other. Together the works highlight the component parts essential to an appreciation of the interdependent quality of Greene and Greene’s output.

This exhibition runs until the 7th of June, 2009
