Los Angeles, CA

LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery is presenting Bruts, a group exhibition curated by artist Rashid Johnson. The exhibition is on view through August 24, 2024. Bruts features paintings and sculptures by fifteen artists whose work comes into being through feats of physical, psychological, spiritual, and emotional strength. Many of the works on view were produced in ways that foreground the roughness of an artist’s interactions with their materials, resulting in aggressively textured surfaces and an absence of smoothness. Johnson has composed the exhibition like a poem, seeking to generate unexpected correspondences that cannot be reduced to mere visual or biographical affinity. In keeping with this ethos, the show is populated by a variety of takes on abstraction, including works that otherwise present as figurative. It also reflects Johnson’s evolving view of his own ideas and project, which have continually found him negotiating a terrain where non-objective mark making and composition overlap with lyrical approaches to representation understood in the broadest possible terms.

LONDON.- This autumn, Tate Modern will celebrate the early innovators of optical, kinetic, programmed and digital art, who forged a new era of immersive environments and art works engaging with new technologies. Electric Dreams will bring together an international network of more than 70 artists working between the 1950s and the dawn of the internet age, who took inspiration from science to create art that expands and tests the senses. These groundbreaking figures from across Asia, Europe and the Americas responded to the growing presence of technology in our lives by finding new ways to work with machines - often reclaiming them from the military and corporate interests that drove their evolution. Featuring over 150 works, many of which are shown in the UK for the first time, this ambitious exhibition will be a rare opportunity to experience incredible vintage tech art in action - from mesmerising psychedelic installations to early experiments made with home computers and video synthesisers.

Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
