A couple of things Stateside: Artloversnewyork have a good post on the Erik Parker opening at the Project Space of Marianne Boesky last week. The new work – small(ish) drawings on paper – looks interesting, almost as if there is a secret language encoded within all the indexes of cartoon hieroglyphics that expand on the central axiom. Also, the invite card is one of the best I have seen in a long time and brings out the inner Patrick Bateman.

Also, Montage: Unmonumental Online, the web based and final portion of the New Museum’s Unmonumental show is now live. There is lots of good stuff there, but check out Oliver Laric’s 50 50 video first.
Links: Joy Garnett – found art
I’m not sure if they are meant as satire or as an affectionately observed series that looks for art in the detritus of the city; either way the “Found Art: Unmonumental” posts that appear regularly on Joy Garnett’s blog are turning into a fascinating anthropology of the streets of New York. See the Flickr set for the full collection.
