  • Kris Kuksi – Divination and Delusion Pre-Order

    Kris Kuksi – Divination and Delusion Pre-Order

    The Beinart Surreal Collective, has just sent a new book to the publishers to be released this coming December. A new book on the works of Kris Kuksi entitled “Divination and Delusion”. The book was to be released this September, but 40 extra pages were added so the book as been pushed back, but with the extra pages the wait will be well worth it. The work of Kuksi is absolutely mind-blowing; to see these works in person is really something special. While a book is rarely a good replacement for seeing the art in person, this book allows one to not only add a great to book to their collection, but to really delve into the intricacies of Kuksi’s work. Each assemblage is so hyper-detailed, its often hard in a gallery setting to really see everything in each work displayed. The book is in pre-order, so head on over and make sure you get a copy.

  • “Bleeding Lean” print by Charlie Immer

    Virtu Art Gallery is really coming up with some amazing prints lately, I was just talking about Charlie Immer a bit ago. The gallery has released a new print by Charlie entitled “Bleeding Lean”. The print is 10″ x 30″ on canvas, each one hand embellished by the artist. They are signed and numbered in an edition of 30, and also come with a certificate of authenticity. It’s a great looking print, and I like the idea that its a different size than most prints tend to be.
