This week’s ArtCafé discussion and slide show covered the importance of an utterance- of an idea, a mark- the need to look, listen, absorb, and act.
A quick sweep of Chelsea: Damien Hirst’s “Spot Paintings” at Gagosian to Mary Corse’s abstract illusional canvases. Things are not always what they seem: Ai Weiwei’s porcelain sunflower seeds at Mary Boone to James Cohan Gallery’s “Object Fiction” exhibit.

We also discussed the topic of social media- YouTube, pop culture, and the multi-media fusion of visual and performance arts. Be sure to stop in at WAC and check out "Toy Stories" featuring 34 artists. Enjoy the Super Bowl this Sunday with family and friends, whether you watch for the game or ads!
Please join us on Thursday, February 9th, for a glass of wine and a Playtime Panel discussion on the games and theories of play! I look forward to seeing you there as well as next Friday for ArtCafé once again. Best wishes, Helen Klisser During
