Felipe Pantone is best known for his chromatic sculptures and installations that demystify the eye. Having exhibited from one corner of the world to the next, the Spanish-Argentine artist is currently showcasing a solo exhibition at CONTROL Gallery in Los Angeles that cements his meteoric rise. Pantone, like many street artists, however, first came to art through graffiti.A new collaboration with KRINK honors Pantone's roots through a set of K-60 markers. Comprising of six 15mm round tip paint markers (black, light blue, yellow, light green, red and purple), the set embodies the spirit of Pantone's practice — which teeters between art's analog past and digital future, where humans and machines will work in tandem to usher in the next frontier of creative expression.

While artificial intelligence (AI) has been around for quite some time now, the term has become far more ubiquitous at this point, appearing in nearly every corner of culture. The art world has been one of the many industries both intrigued and perplexed by this burgeoning technology and AI serves as the underlying theme of a new solo exhibition by filmmaker Bennett Miller at Gagosian's 976 Madison Avenue location in New York. As his first show with the gallery, the eponymously titled exhibition features a suite of prints made within the last five years that stem from Miller's thorough investigation of the technological crossroads we now find ourselves in.

Broadcasting on London's Piccadilly Lights, the short video showcases the Pussy Riot co-founder in her signature white balaclava as she lights an eggplant emoji candle-sculpture ablaze. The work was influenced by the U.S. Supre...

TARWUK is a Croatian artist duo comprising of members, Bruno Pogačnik Tremow and Ivana Vukšić. Raised during the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s and now based in New York, the two revisit their traumatic upbringing through avant-garde painterly styles and anthropomorphic sculptures, such as their latest body of work on view at White Cube in London.Entitled Posadila sam kost u zimskom vrtu, which in Croatian loosely translates to I planted a bone in the winter garden, the exhibition is a poetic reflection on the unpredictability of nature and human's innate struggle in bringing order. A selection of new sculptures and large-scale paintings create a carnivalesque scene within the gallery, considered by TARWUK as "architectural models of organic growth," where life is merely a performative act pla...
