Amanda Ross-Ho

Mitchell-Innes & Nash will be hosting an exhibition “MY PEN IS HUGE” by artist Amanda Ross-Ho at the gallery’s New York location.

Marc Spiegler, the global director of Art Basel, said Hong Kong has its galleries, while Miami is known for its private collections and Basel for its museums.

One could argue that the buddy cop genre has been with us since well before In the Heat of the Night; that it’s among the prototypical literary genres.

The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) opened its doors yesterday at Skylight Clarkson North for the sixth edition of NADA New York—and it was filled with fresh vibes.

Praz-Delavallade is hosting an inaugural group exhibition for its new gallery space in Los Angeles. The exhibition titled “I Love L.A.” will run from

Mary Mary Gallery is hosting a group show “Curve of a hill like the curve of a green shoulder” from January 28 through March 11, 2017.

The artistic goliath we all know and love makes a triumphant return to London's Regent's Park this week – here, we pinpoint some of the most arresting works on view.

THIS STORY BEGINS somewhere other than the beginning.  It’s a hot summer night in Los Angeles, and the artist D’Ette Nogle is onstage accompanied by two big, restless dogs. Nogle is recounting the plot of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, a hardly obscure movie that has been playing in theaters all over the world for the past month. Her narration, or “shaggy-dog story” …

In its first international exhibition, LAND (Los Angeles Nomadic Division) links a gilded Paris mansion on the Seine occupied by the Mona Bismarck American Center and Thaddeus Ropac’s industrial gallery space on the city outskirts with works from 14 L.A. artists.

It’s no secret that the eastside of Los Angeles is gentrifying fast, and that most of us in the contemporary art community wring our hands in weak perplexity over the part that we play in the process. Nevertheless, many residents of Glassell Park were happy to see a new coffee shop open on Eagle Rock Boulevard in early 2015. Yelp reviewers have approved of the “clean and creative atmosphere.” (“Super chill place and the quality of people is very high as well,” wrote Anthony E.) Notwithstanding the “rude” servers, the clientele seems broadly to approve of the new establishment.

L.A. Habitat is a weekly series that visits with 16 artists in their workspaces around the city. This week’s studio: Amanda Ross-Ho; Skid Row, Los Angeles.

Looking at work by the artist Amanda Ross-Ho can feel a bit dizzying, and that might be something she’s going for. Since she moved to L.A., her art has become a lot about her studio practice, about creating a loop of the micro and macro aimed at giving viewers a sense of vertigo that makes them want to look closer, hyper-aware of their surroundings. Ross-Ho uses shifts in scale or material to jar us awake. Whitewall spoke with the artist—whose work is currently on view in group shows at the Walker Art Center and the Los Angeles Nomadic Division exhibition in Paris, “Wasteland”—about mining the intimacy of her studio.

Mona Bismarck, named the “Best Dressed Woman in the World” in 1933, was born in Kentucky. She skirted her more or less humble roots by successively marrying rich men—her third husband apparently the richest in America. She lived in a regal townhouse on the Seine, blocks from the Eiffel Tower, for part of her life. When she died in 1983, her will designated her townhouse the Mona Bismarck American Center, a place for American art and culture in Paris. But it has held relatively few exhibitions over the years.

There is a light that never goes out—and it’s Amanda Ross-Ho’s “check engine” light. Writ large in lurid yellow neon, in a dark room of wall-to-wall, wiry automobile carpeting, Ross-Ho’s Eternal Flame riffs on the many blinking indicator lights which once shone within the walls of “The Pit II,” a former garage. Eternal Flame’s deserted-nightclub glow transitions into the dimly-lit Madames Electrics, a group show at The Pit (I), curated by Shana Lutker.

The “Check Engine” light: Is there a more loathsome illumination? The dread increases exponentially for a citizen of Los Angeles, someone who, more than many, relies upon the transporting powers of the automobile.

An untitled 1976 graphite drawing in “The Pleasure of Play” depicts a buff, smirking man literally fucking the world.

“Image Objects,” on view through November 20, brings digital culture to City Hall Park in New York.

Yesterday, 73 University of Southern California MFA alumni signed a letter of support for the seven first-year MFA students who dropped out of USC’s Roski School of Art and Design a month ago.

For her first solo show at Praz-Delavallade Gallery in Paris, Amanda Ross-Ho has gathered a selection of fifteen new works: sculptures, wall-pieces, textiles and site-specific gestures.

Some readers may recall that at last year’s edition of NADA’s Miami Beach art fair, no less than three exhibitors showed up with artworks that took the form of oversized articles of clothing—a fleece jacket by James Viscardi at The Sunday Painter, a sporty polo by Jose Lerma at Roberto Paradise, and an ink-splattered glove by Amanda Ross-Ho at Shane Campbell.

MOCA shot itself out of an artistic canon Saturday night as it celebrated it's entry into its fourth decade in a happening masterminded artist Doug Aitken.

Amanda Ross-Ho makes art that engages in nonstop translation — ephemeral drawings morph into solid rooms, miniature sizes balloon into maximum magnitudes, magazine advertisements turn into gold-finished jewelry, childhood scribbles change into grown-up philosophical musings. She's the Babel fish of contemporary art.
