White Cube's Most Wanted
On January 27th, one of our favorite artists, Richard Phillips, opens his latest solo show “Most Wanted” at London’s White Cube gallery. It consists of ten large-scale (two-meter tall!) portraits of young, powerful, and glamorous stars: Robert Pattinson, Taylor Swift, Zac Efron, Dakota Fanning, Kristen Stewart, and Leonardo DiCaprio, to name a few. Richard provokes questions about these superstars as brand figureheads and the power of celebrity branding to shape the face of our future.

KAWS Monograph Now Available
Brian Donnelly, better known by the moniker KAWS, just wrapped his exhibition at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum. The artist, who began soaking up the urban scene as a skateboarder in the late '80's, became well known for his graffiti, especially his signature characters with x-ed out eyes and crossed bones that he tagged on a large number of bus stop ads. While sadly the blockbuster show is down, you can see the oeuvre of his work in the newly published Rizzoli monograph!
