Lola’s painting exhibitions are not the generic herdings of wall relief or novelty gatherings. Her fascination with painting and love for creating conversive works is an almost regal adoration of visual linguistics. Through each of her painstakingly hand-crafted works, the self-taught Los Angeles artist is peeling back layer upon layer of intrepid silence. With each stroke, Lola’s work is seeking solace in the truths that lie beyond the smallest doors in oft-overlooked hallways, each filled with curiously manicured passages to shadows of reminiscence. Working in the ways of the old masters, Lola performs a ballet of lyrical proportions with a definitive grasp of a most surreal and fantastic language. Read more

I must be the only cat in Brooklyn not sporting any ink. Yup, the streets are lined with people rocking all manner of tattoos, some kitsch, some serious, some that probably should have stayed inside the mind of their creators. If I were to get some work done, I’d probably go to Yannou who takes a playful approach to the art of body re-styling. Read more

Films involving characters faced with an impossible choice never make easy viewing, an example being the Nick Cave Australian gem, The Proposition. A nightclub manager, played with understated power by Joaquin Phoenix, is the victim here, and you actually feel truly uncomfortable as his predicament unfolds. Set in the 1980s, We Own The Night shows a real nostalgia for that period — particularly in the costumes. Read more
DFA Records need little introduction to dancefloor devotees, but Hold On, a recent release by lesser known artist Holy Ghost!, may not be on the radar just yet. It will be though: we nominate it for track most likely to receive stereo overplay.
