🕸️UNIQUE ARTWORKS R STILL LIVE—from our Los Angeles 🩳🧦NAKED LUNCH🥪🍎 exhibition here on the world wide web for you to support and we’re 🧵WEAVING together artworks still acquireable from our 💻Collections Site for you to still 🖼️🤏GRAB should you move fast enough

🕷️💨ONE OF THE FAST MOVING works being captured currently are by artist 🦌 Eriko Hattori () whose erotic recontextualization of shunned female ‘yōkai’ or 🦇SUPERNATURAL CREATURES from traditional Japanese folklore eschew their inherent patriarchal biases, permitting, for example, the archetypal 🕷️Jorogumo—the spider succubi—to 🧶LOOM over q***r lovers as a kind of stewarding matriarch of intimacy rather than an apparition of 💅💀FEMININE DOOM.

🖼️🖌️🤏FASHIONED in the style of traditional Shunga—Japanese erotic prints from the early 18th and 19th centuries—Hattori flips the script on erotica historically etched for the 🪡MALE EYE, curator 🐐Hannah Turpin () shrewdly 🪢TETHERING these themes to our exhibition on figuration of a 🍇NEO-RENAISSANCE that implicates a history of human 🦵FORM and 📚STORYTELLING long preceding that in the West, offering marginalized characters as their subjects over the typical Greco-Roman 🏛️SAINTS & GODS of the Rafaelite era

🕷️🤏GRASP THESE seductive and ethereal works shortly or be 🩸🪡STUNG with the regret of losing out on them—Eriko’s one-of-a-kind paintings on paper already partially snapped up—and stay 🕷️🕸️ALERT for more on the special 🧵🕸️CREATIONS of our signature artists, still available for capture and display before they’re gone🕸️💨

🍷RAISING A GLASS—to more artworks still 🖼️🤏ACQUIRABLE through our 💻Collections Site (🔗👆), even though the shelf life on our LA exhibition in the 🩳🧦🥪🍎FLESH is now expired, feast your eyes on the fresh spread of works by 🕯️Lena Christakis ().

✨PART OF THE ARTISTS SPOTLIGHT curated by A + A ( + ), these smirking, delicately macabre 🧳”SUITCASE PAINTINGS”—so-called because they fit perfectly into Lena’s suitcase on her way to 🌊LA—are perfect, playful meditations on 💀EXPIRATION, 🎲RISK, and 🥂LIFE.

🎲💨DON’T RISK losing out on any of these memento mori—grab ahold of Lena’s or other works still 🥂🤏(A)LIVE on our Collections Site before they too 🫗🤏DISAPPEAR

🌈☁️SPRING/BREAK LA has rained down on the city of angels, and though the physical show itself has 🕊️TAKEN FLIGHT, that’s not gonna rain on our 🖼️PARADE—artworks are still collectible through our 💻Collections Site (🔗👆) —oh sunny day! 🌞🕶️

☀️AND BRIGHT AS THE SUN are the winking trompe-l’oeil works of ⛅️Jeremy Shockley () whose solo show at 🕳️The Hole in Tribeca just opened its doors 🌚LAST NIGHT. Included in our 🩳🧦NAKED LUNCH🥪🍎 exhibition as reference to the popularizing of the slight of 🧿EYE technique popularized after the 🍇RENAISSANCE, Shockley’s remaining artworks are gaining more attention with last night’s show—be sure to capture what catches 👁️YOUR EYE and support Jeremy and all our other artists’ work while it’s still raining down on you ☔️🌈

🩳🧦BODIES BODIES BODIES are *still* the subject of our closed up 🌊SPRING/BREAK LA show from last week—and tho the doors of our 4th Los Angeles exhibition are 🚪SHUT, ongoing access to our online 💻Collections Site (🔗👆) to still acquire artworks is now 🖼️🤏OPEN

👀FEAST UR EYES on these artworks all dealing in their own way with a 🍇Neo-Renaissance conception of 🩳🧦FIGURATION—including the occult-ish, adventuring, and oblique works of 🪄Agatha Bebecka (), most recently named as one of ☝️🖐️6 ARTISTS in all of Frieze Week LA to watch by —as collecting with your number ☝️ONE resource in emerging art keeps the work available for all those who couldn’t see it in the 🦵FLESH!
