100 life-sized sculptures of Indian elephants will be installed around the Meat Packing District next week, fresh off their debut in Newport, Rhode Island. These elegant pachyderms were made by the Coexistence Collective, a community of 200 indigenous artisans living within the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve in southern India, and the exhibition is in partnership with an NGO called Elephant Family USA. Sales of these sculptures benefit conservation NGOs from around the world supporting the coexistence of wildlife and humans; prices range from $8,000 for a baby up to $22,000 for a tusker. The elephants will remain in Meat Packing until October 20, when they will migrate to Miami, followed by Blackfeet Nation, Buffalo Pastures in Browning, Montana and Los Angeles.

Kenny Scharf says that “one very important and guiding principle to my work is to reach out beyond the elitist boundaries of fine art and connect to popular culture through my art.” To that end, over a dozen new works by the artist, who used to show at Mudd Club in the 1980s and is often cited alongside Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, will debut next week at Totah. There are over a dozen, super colorful new works that will no doubt delight his existing extensive fan base and engage a lot more. September 4th through November 9 at DavidTotah .com

This marks the fair’s foray across the Atlantic to New York City, and includes an interesting twist: a fashion section curated by none other than editor and stylist Gabriella Karefa-Johnson. Collectible runs from September 5-8 at Water Street Projects. More info at Collectible.Design

A few months ago we alerted you to the existence of a super cool new cocktail bar called Only Love Strangers. Now we’re here to tell you that they added Mexican restaurant in the space above. It’s called Comida Corrida and led by chef chef Alberto Gomez, who hails from Acapulco de Juárez. His menu celebrates the culinary heritage and flavors of Oaxaca, and at a crazy reasonable price (starting at $24 per person). Offerings may include sopa, rice, beans, a tangy cabbage slaw, handmade tortillas and house made hot sauces, all served alongside a choice of main dishes such as Barbacoa (+$4, lamb braised in plantain leaves and dried chili), braised chicken (+$4), or the fresh Catch of the Day (+$8) served with a refreshing cucumber salad.
