artMRKT Hampton Spoiler: Red Truck Gallery
artMRKT Hamptons opens today and our friends at Red Truck Gallery sent us a sneak peek of their booth. As always, Noah + the gang has some ridiculously weird/awesome art to share with the hamptons art collecting crowd this weekend. The following are works I would seriously consider purchasing under the right set of circumstances outlined below:
1) You need to outfit a new rustic gastropub in NYC, Austin or Portlandia with a piece of yardsale taxidermy cleverly covered with a mask of embroidered night animals by Chris Roberts-Antieau. I’m talk about you SMITH!
2) You require a Life-Sized NYC Newsstand Made From Old Denim Jeans in your life [maybe a museum should pick this up]. Talk about repurposing materials, British artist Ian Berry has done it again with a very cool lifesize installation of old denim. I love the Charlie Sheen, Marilyn Monroe, Obama, WIRED and Swedish Fish references.
