The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife by Ami Kealoha
Sebastien Agneesens is a riot of candy-hued balloons suggestive of the sensual sea creatures in the original. Unlike Hokusai's nearly 200 year-old print, the thousands of balloons that make up the show are an ephemeral medium; Hackenwerth sees the shrinking and shriveling that occurs as a "process of transformation metaphorically similar to our own short lives." More info and a flyer, after the jump.

Tim Bavington: Up in Suze's Room
Inspired by riffs, album covers, guitar necks and other musical motifs, Tim Bavington's latest show features 16 paintings of his ultra-saturated stripes and shapes that vibrate with synesthetic intensity. To create his luscious canvases, the Las Vegas-based painter visualizes the sound into visual color systems, using an air brushing technique to achieve a high-impact sheen. Works like the title piece's field of smudgy yellows,...

Bike Rides Exhibition
The upcoming exhibit "Bike Rides" brings together a global cast of artists to celebrate pedal power at a time when the developed world is reclaiming the ubiquitous two-wheeled wonder as a possible savior for our urban transportation woes.

No Longer Empty

The project revitalizes empty spaces by filling them with art, situates art in the public realm and supports work that touches on the theme of this current economic situation. For an inaugural show, the old bait...

Deviate
Featuring work by artists who are "altering materials and repurposing objects that prompt viewers to investigate the act of looking and perceiving," the unifying theme behind the impending group exhibition "Deviate" may be a little broad but it makes for a show that speaks to CH's penchant for the obsessively subversive. The nine artists represented take a largely conceptual approach using a diverse collection...
