Sorry guys about the little news on the site at the moment. We are working out a few technical issues on our end and will be back soon with a better Curated than ever! Promised!

The infamous London Police recently opened a solo exhibit at NYC’s Opera Gallery, called “Who Cares Wins.” Opening night featured an original music performance by the duo.

The London Police started when big English geezers headed to Amsterdam in 1998 to rejuvenate the visually disappointing streets of the drug capital of the world.

The motive was to combine traveling and making art to create an amazing way of life not seen since the days of King Soloman. Known for their iconic LADS characters and precision marking TLP have been together for over 13 years and their work has graced streets and galleries in 35 countries during this time. London policemen have come and gone but founding members are still known to walk the streets of every city in the world spreading love with pens and stickers.

The current duo have managed to form a partnership more cohesive than Han Solo and Chewbacca in Star Wars and are consistently producing slick artwork that is tighter than a butlers cuff. Never be scared, don’t be a hero and let the good times roll.

Seb Caudron joined Sartoria for an exclusive sneak peek of the Kindergarten exhibition, a closer look at Futura’s “AK46″ installation.

There is always time in my life for parody. (See last post). Thanks to Needles and Sins for relaying the existence of this gem, which is not just art related but sufficiently humorous. Will there be a Brian Grosz retort?

“Opening on June 3, 2011, our summer season features two exhibitions: ‘Delicious Fields: Ohio Photographers at Work’ and ‘Terrain,’ a installation by Julianne Swartz. ‘Delicious Fields’ showcases the work of Ohio-based photographers Jodi Boatman, Bruce Checefsky, Joy Christiansen Erb, Mary Fahy, Marcella Hackbardt, Benjamin Montague, Ardine Nelson, Pipo Nguyen-duy, and Jordan Tate.”

Joshua Liner hosts Cleon Peterson’s White Flag through June 11, 2011.

If the title of this new body of work suggests a surrender, it’s not the conventional sort. Known for his depictions of graphic violence and depravity, Peterson’s dystopian art rips the lid off of accepted social decorum to unleash aggression and other pent-up impulses. As figures torture, maim, cut, and abuse one another, a surrender to the worst in humanity is staged on the surfaces of the artist’s work—here, it can be safely, cathartically, and even aesthetically enacted.

The work is produced with acrylic on paper mounted on board, with stark contrast of materials key in building depth.
