  <Description><![CDATA[Spotlight on the Permanent Collection is the first exhibition featuring a sampling of objects and ephemera drawn from over nine thousand objects that comprise the permanent collection of the Museum of Sex. This ever-growing collection, begun five years ago, covers many aspects of human sexuality. The vast majority of items reflect America's changing attitudes about sex and sexuality over the last 250 years.

Spotlight on the Permanent Collection explores eight themes: sex education; mapping sex in America; sex in art; law and public morality; sex in advertising; sex and technology; sex and entertainment; and the significance of the Museum of Sex in New York City. The exhibition includes erotic works by well known artists like Randy Wray, Gerald Gooch and Alex Rockman donated to the museum by the Peter Norton Family and the Lannan Family Foundation. Highlights of the technology collection include homemade contraptions and commercial devices registered with the U.S. Patent Office that prevent, improve or enhance sexual function. Dan Siechert's &quot;Monkey Rocker&quot; or Abyss Creations LLC's &quot;Real Doll&quot; are just a few of the exhibits featured.

The gallery development team, lead by John Vollmer and Karen Eckhaus of the Museum of Sex, includes several leading authorities from a wide range of disciplines: Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Professor of Sociology at the University of Washington, St. Louis serves as a key advisor for &quot;Sex Education America.&quot; Joshua Berger and Sarah Dougher, authors of the (award-winning) book, XXX: The Power of Sex in Contemporary Design, have curated &quot;Stimulating Sales: Sex and Design.&quot;

Andrea Tone, Canada Research Chair in the Social History of Medicine Social Studies of Medicine &amp; Department of History at McGill University, and Rachel Maines, Researcher at Cornell University, offer commentary in &quot;Sex and Technology.&quot; Dr. Joseph Slade, Professor at the School of Telecommunications, Ohio University and advisor on the exhibition, Stag, Smokers, and Blue Movies, helped to plan the exhibits in &quot;American pornography&quot; which are drawn from the Museum of Sex's Ralph Whittington collection.

  <Description><![CDATA[In the series Unbranded: Reflections in Black by Corporate America, Hank Willis Thomas appropriates print advertisements from 1968 to the present that targeted a black audience or featured black subjects. From the original ads, taken from popular magazines such as Ebony and Essence, the artist digitally removed all text as well as logos. The remaining figures and scenarios are often both captivating and perplexing, especially in juxtaposition with the sometimes witty and provocative titles given to each image by the artist (which include the original date of the ad followed by the date of the Willis Thomas work).

  <Description><![CDATA[LMAKprojects presents Slovene artist Miha Strukelj's Memories of a City, a first solo exhibit with the gallery. For this exhibit Strukelj will create an installation of murals and small drawings on panels throughout the gallery to address the limitations and confines of the gallery space. In his work Strukelj's methodology is a reduction of everything back to a grid, contour and line. His eye reacting to architectural settings combined with angular patterns that are contradicting and complex. Bringing formal order into the newly created chaos and disparate elements the grid evokes both the sense of painting and drawing tradition as well as Cartesian coordinates and maps.
 
Strukelj's scenes are usually urban spaces defined by architecture, landmarks and points, which create a tension and shape our view. In between there are empty and forgotten spaces that he captures. These anonymous moments are combined to emphasize and construct a new reality of disparate contemporaneity, a visual study of digital existential dilemma of the human experiences. The panels, found within the installation, are either layers of mylar stripping away the trails of the subjects surrounding or wood panels jutting the subjects into the viewers space. They are components of the installation but embody their own sense of space.  Through these elements, Strukelj is able to play with depth and layering while also enhancing his point of focus be it a line, structure or individual.  The acts of the subjects are not heroic yet through isolation the viewer is absorbed into their act in life.  Strukelj is an observer, yet his drawn observations force the viewer the illustrated realm and become part of these isolated instances in time. He exposes the grey area that we dismiss in our everyday life.
 
Miha Strukelj was born in 1973 in Ljubljana, Slovenia where he still lives and works. He has an MFA from Academy of Fine Arts and one such awards as the Henkel drawing award, the Pollock-Krasner Grant to name a few. His work has been shown at the 53rd Venice Biennial at the Slovenian Pavilion and can be found in the public collections such as the Uni Credit Bank, Siemens Collection, Adrian Riklin Foundation in Vienna, Societe Generale in Paris, ECB - European Central Bank in Frankfurt, Museum of Modern Art Ljubljana, NLB - Nova Ljubljanska Banka, and Government of the Republic of Slovenia.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[For the past twenty years, renowned graphic designer and fine artist Paula Scher has been reinterpreting society's approach to data and our visual representation of the trafficked environment. Through her large-scale cartographic paintings, she has created a novel way of mapping traditional information, while subjectively twisting and confounding it. Intricate, colorful and obsessively detailed, her paintings have the foundations of accuracy, but are ultimately impressionistic visions of our interconnected world.

Scher culls data from informational media such as headlines, commercial maps, and diagrams and renders them in madcap fields of hand-drawn typography. The accumulated textures and patterns provide an exuberant portrait of contemporary information in all its complexity and subjectivity, while questioning our innate ability to synthesize and analyze. 
Scher has been a principal of the international design consultancy Pentagram since 1991, where she is renowned for her creation of graphic identities, publications and environments.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Exhibition of posters for films by Milos Forman

The exhibition will introduce 30 posters for films that Forman made both in Czechoslovakia and in the US. The core of the presentation are posters from the 1960’s, which was the prime time for this unique visual / applied arts creation in Czechoslovakia. Among the top pieces that will be on display are the posters by Jiri Slitr for the film Audition and collage posters by Vladimir Bidlo for the comedy The Firemen’s Ball.

The selection will also contain several rare works by Polish, Hungarian and East German artists. The famous poster designed by Peter Sis for the US distribution of Amadeus will be the highlight of the show.

  <Description><![CDATA[Street artist André Saraiva is perhaps best known for the creation of his &quot;Mr. A&quot; character which was featured last year in the award winning documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop. He made his own directorial debut in 2011 with his short film, &quot;The Shoe,&quot; co-starring Leo Fitzpatrick and Annabelle Dexter-Jones. Saraiva has exhibited all over the world including shows at Colette, Palais de Tokyo and Air de Paris where he showed his love graffiti for the first time. For MOCA's landmark &quot;Art in the Streets&quot; show, he tagged up the museum's bathrooms with his colorful graffiti. Andre's show Love Letters at half gallery -- his first solo exhibition in New York -- will include paintings on french letter boxes which he used to paint all over Paris and love notes on stationery, a somewhat anachronistic celebration of communication so closely tied to the romantic. ]]></Description>
