Sinewy, strong but shimmery and kind of a bro. French artist Max Boufathal’s sculpture work is hard to miss. Discoing Neanderthals? Perhaps that’s a bit far. The almost robotic interpretative of man is fascinating indeed. They resemble gorillas in position, [...]

ART: EDOUARD NARDON’S ‘ART SHANKS’
Brooklyn artist Eduouard Nardon isn’t afraid of being confrontational. In fact, he probably likes it. His dramatic art pieces are both aggressive and poetic. There is something about a tube sock or garbage bag wrapped tightly around a crude tool [...]
STUDIO VISIT: Maurice Mbikayi

ART: Peter Opheim’s Clay Paintings; My Childhood Memories
Opheim seems to capture that kind of childhood happiness in these exquisite pieces. Each one evokes a sense of confusion or joy.
