May Chelsea Cruse

James Kalm invites viewers to ride along and sample some exhibitions of interest. The artist team of McDermott & McGough has been confounding the public with their time traveling high-jinx for decades. "Because of Him" at Cheim & Reid contrasts a nostalgia for lost love with the tacky pathos of early 60s late-night TV. Lydia Dona debuts "From Heat to Sub-Zero" a mural scaled piece that sums up many of her recent concerns regarding the potentials of depiction and its philosophies, at Michael Steinberg. Kim Dorland receives his first New York show at Freight Volume with "North". This Canadian painter uses a plethora of techniques from spray-paint to inches thick impasto in his depictions of these denizens of a slacker world.

Someone should make a documentary about M & M. Those are some interesting guys.

[MrWowforever]

You have this uncanny knack for visiting all the shows I want to see. You save me a lot of money on bus-fare.

These are all interesting shows. Thanks. Wondering if M&M are still living without electricity...

[MrWowforever]

the last painter, Dorland, is yummy....from Canada, similar (but different) to Peter Doig, another painter with Canadian influences...this was a great group of painters, thanks mr. kalm

Kim Dorland's work is amazing. Definitely an artist that will be seen much more. With twenty pounds of oil impasto, what were they charging??
