We’ve been following Escif’s work for a bit and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Londoners look out for him in April when he opens a show at the new Pictures On Walls space.
Ice House Detroit

Top of the Pops
The cover formula worked
From Wikipedia:
“were a series of budget compilation cover albums of current chart hits recorded by anonymous session singers and musicians released on the Hallmark record label. They had initially reached the charts but were later disallowed due to a change in the criteria for entering the charts. These albums continued to be produced until the early 1980s, when the advent of compilation albums featuring the original versions of hits, such as the Now That’s What I Call Music series, led to a steep decline in their popularity.”
End of an Era
Damien Hirst’s End of an Era opened at Gagosian this past Saturday. We were in Florida warming our bones but, Art in America provides a good write-up and taste of the scene. See it all here

Bates
While on Bates’ site, I came across a bunch of canvases for sale. A sampling is above. For those who do not know who Bates is, he’s from Denmark and has been writing graffiti longer than Megan Fox has been alive.
Cannot wait to see this…
