RYAN BUBNIS for KIDROBOT

By: Todd Berger

I was first turned on to the artwork of Ryan Bubnis a couple years ago at our friend Dave Smith’s, inaugural group show at Limited Addiction Gallery.  Lucian picked a piece by Ryan, and we’ve since followed his trajectory in the contemporary art world.  He’s a great artist and seems to have won the respect of some key peeps, as evidenced by his recent release for kidrobot, Heroes and Heartbreakers.  Awesome to see. Grab ‘em while you still can.

 

AWESOME ART BY CHRISTOPHER COX!

By: JoyEngine

For starters I’ve gotta say Chris Cox is a really stellar guy. Aside from being a spectacular, illustrator, graphic designer, ad guy, and website designer – Chris can paint. I have proof. I, well we (the greater JoyEngine posse) now own a Cox original. Chris and his wife Alex came down to kick it yesterday and shoot the design-life shit and they left us with a painting. How fucking rad is that, right? The newly acquired Cox painting topped off a really great art weekend. Saturday night I took my Mom and Sis (who just happened to be in town) down to Dave’s gallery (Limited Adddition Gallery) for the Blaine Fontana opening where my Sis kicked down and bought me an early b-day present in the form of a Fontana print (you can see it below – JR picked one up too). I grabbed Lucian’s Ryan Bubnis painting that he picked up from Limited Addiction’s inaugral group show – which is Awesome! To really ice the cake Dave handed me a copy of BUA’s new book, “The Beat of Urban Art” upon leaving his gallery. Dave had BUA sign the book for me prior to his latest show at Limited Addicition (which I missed due to less than ideal time management and a heavy workload and subsequently feel like a real jack-ass and like I missed a major opportunity to be really, really inspired – I guess I’ve got the book though). Thanks Dave. Oh, prior to that we hit up the new Denver Art Museum where I think I drooled so much all over one of Murakami’s pieces on loan to the museum from the Logan’s that it’s now ruined. Sorry, Takashi. From there hit the The 400 to show off the shop to the fam and get them a peak at the rafajenn.com piece I recently acquired (which is unfuckingbelievably great by the way) Pretty arty weekend, eh? I think I’m beginning to understand why I’m broke… art?coxpainting.jpg
