Allison Schulnik

I have been a fan of Allison Schulnik‘s paintings for a long time and just came across this amazing animation today while doing some stop motion animation research at work. Best creepy ghostlike creature interpretive dancing to Scott Walker I have ever seen!

Mound by Allison Schulnik

Jules de Balincourt

I am disappointed that I missed the Jules de Balincourt show at Salon 94.
Here are some of the works that were included in the exhibition:::

Philippe Cognée

Saw Philippe Cognée‘s paintings at the Armory Show this past month.
Here are a bunch to enjoy. See more on Galerie Daniel Templon’s website.

Hearing these men talk about painting in French is soothing.

Gert & Uwe Tobias

Saw Team Gallery‘s dual exhibitions of Gert & Uwe Tobias‘ work the other week and quite enjoyed. The shows are up until March 30th.

First 6 images from Wooster St. location, bottom 4 shots from Grand St. (all images from Team Gallery website).

Saw this show in Chelsea last month and really liked Josh Brand’s work.
