Willy Heeks at Elizabeth Leach gallery, Portland

What is the message is what we ask ourselves as we indulge in various online platforms for information. This show is like a beautiful scavenger hunt to decipher the symbols we consume so readily these days as if they had magic power. It is certainly an inspirational attempt to tap into these colorful paintings that might tell us to slow down a little with our image addiction and find stimulation outside the visual fields of perception.

Lee Bul CRASH at Gropious Bau Berlin by Richard Schemmerer

Lee Bul CRASH at Gropious Bau Berlin by Richard Schemmerer

Lee Bul's work is stunningly disturbingly beautiful in all the unexpected ways life forms can dazzle us but in this case it is otherworldly remnants of an artist's phantasy land. This is art creation in the hands of a unique creator that has obviously a degree in aesthetics from an outer planetary university. I loved the spaciousness of the exhibit that was for once not heavy handed but felt light as an angels touch. I felt satisfied and saturated and impregnated with visions of a future world where even garbage is mesmerizingly gorgeous.
