Gerhard Richter’s Complete Artist Books on View in Cologne

It’s so rare in one’s art life to experience absolute completeness, to see every work—even if only in a single medium—by an artist. But right now, in Cologne, Germany, you can do just that with Gerhard Richter. Through May 17, Bonhams is currently hosting an exhibition of every single one of Mr. Richter’s artist books, or Künstlerbücher as they say in German. You can take a peek at them over on the artist’s remarkably comprehensive website. Read More

New Museum Plans ‘NYC 1993′

Today the New Museum released some details regarding the show it has in the works that is centered around the year 1993 in New York. It’s going to be a blowout affair: all five floors of the museum are in play, and four curators are working on it, Massimiliano Gioni, Gary Carrion-Murayari, Jenny Moore and Margot Norton. The show is titled “NYC 1993: Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star,” its subtitle coming from the eponymous Sonic Youth record recorded in that year. The show will run Feb. 13 through May 26, 2013. Read More

Curators Take Center Stage as Saatchi Online’s ’100 Curators 100 Days’ Launches

Curator Britt Salvesen, of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is the first of 100 curators who will step up to the plate over the next 100 days—one curator per day—for Saatchi Online’s exhibition, “100 Curators 100 Days.” Billed as an effort to promote up-and-coming artists by the six-year-old online exhibition space, the show presents a selection of works, 10 per day, selected by each curator from the 60,000 artists exhibited on Saatchi Online. But what’s different about this online exhibition is that it serves just as well as a kind of college “pig book” of curators around the globe who you should get to know a little better. Do you like independent curator Ana Finel Honigman? Then you may also like the work she has selected. Well, that seems to be the premise anyway. And we’d be surprised if it doesn’t get people clicking. Read More

Rachel Lee Hovnanian Serves Up ‘Mud Pie’ at Leila Heller Gallery

The last time we caught up with the work of New York–based artist Rachel Lee Hovnanian, it was in Los Angeles in October at the inaugural Art Platform fair, where Ms. Hovnanian sent two swimsuit-wearing models wandering through the stalls. They strolled the fair in sandals, carrying signs that listed their dress sizes, eerily calm in the otherwise crowded, frenzied environment. Read More
