The work articulates a world where visitors are able to get an exclusive peek at a hidden world beneath a park or forest. The dead trees are presenting with their roots, the condition of the soil in which they have grown in their urban environment. The relationship between humankind and nature, growth and decay are central themes in licari’s work, which resonates with an echo of arte povera.

An elevation of natural phenomena and perceptual experience is behind all David DiMichele’s imagined installations. Pushing the envelope of what seems possible, he is creating inspiring art. With his photographs of seemingly impressive, large-scale installations, he gives viewers little chance not to pay attention. His installation photographs are usually shot in low-angle with humans included for scale, and with careful attention to lighting, deep focus, and composition. Unlike most installation photos, however, DiMichele’s documentations are themselves artworks. As their titles reveal, they are ‘Pseudodocumentation’, depicting masterfully made models for works whose full-scale perceptual tricks and awe-inspiring sublimity can only be imagined.

Music and alcohol actually go together very well. Anyone who needs proof of this should just walk right into a bar or night club. Bars always have music, or a jukebox, and night clubs’ primary source of income is their bar. What people sometimes may not realize is that certain types of music are best accompanied with certain types of liquor. (Much in the same way that fine wines are paired with different cheeses and meats.) The site “Drinkify” asks what music you’re listening to, and suggest a drink to go with it. It seems like a bit odd of a concept, but when you try out some of their suggestions, it’s pretty on point. I haven’t gotten too whimsical with they artist/music that I input into the system, but Eminem, Jay-Z, and Kanye West all bring up suggested drinks that are pretty on point.

Mark Moore Gallery presents Rise of the Underground, a two-person exhibition featuring new works by Jeremy Fish (CA) and Kenichi Yokono (Japan). Each adopting the age-old craft of woodcutting through a distinctive contemporary technique, Fish and Yokono employ bold and enchanting cartoon-like narratives to illustrate quotidian and pop cultural excerpts. Unmistakably handmade and remarkably intriguing, Yokono’s woodblocks explore the “horrors of everyday life,” while Fish’s paintings and cut-outs reveal untapped histories often swept under the rug. Seemingly innocuous at first observation, each work is intricately laced with undercurrents of the sinister and the foreboding, saturated with cultural reflection, psychoanalysis, and social commentary in a fusion of high and low aesthetics.
