Loved To Pieces at Kitchen Table Gallery: An exhibition of work by Lauren McCarty and Veronica Cianfrano
Once in a while artists meet their kindred spirit. Loved To Pieces is an exhibition that explores this unique connection. The works on view exhibit a shared affection for the tactility of seemingly mundane objects and materials. The artists have curated each other's work, presenting an intermingled exhibition spanning eight years of art making, collaboration, and friendship.
Not There, an exhibition by Space Regeneration Project in Beijing's Chaoyang District
Not There took place on December 1, 2013 in the unoccupied and partly demolished site for the foreign creative consulting company PAE Media Group in Beijing's Chaoyang district.
The building complex, completed in 2008, was used for barely 6 months before a land dispute lead to the company vacating. The structures were partially demolished and have since been sitting unused. The grounds are visited now mostly by one man, on behalf of the land owner, who is followed around by the area's feral dogs and one very fat white cat.
For the month of November, 2013, the grounds were once again occupied by a group of artists, responding to and augmenting the site through painting, sculpture, performance, and social interaction.Review for Beijing Cream
