It’s time for a trans-Siberian fling with that grand old dame Russia; a vast enigmatic land teeming with contradictions. Like a babushka doll, it’s all about peeling back the layers of history and preconception to find a country bursting with imagination and a special kind of energy all coiled up like a spring.
The country – more famously known for its mushroom-shaped palaces, billionaires, ballets and a penchant for vodka – is currently buzzing with creative-types as Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Russia kicks off (21 – 25 October) kicks off with the likes of designer Aleksandra Zaguzova showing the world what the contemporary Muscovites are up to.
But it’s not all about Moscow, just down the road in St. Petersburg, the cosmopolitan crowd are breathing a new bohemian life into the city’s baroque architecture and with the design-forward bunch at W Hotels pitching up its latest new opening in the city, W St. Petersburg – it’s putting this Tsar city firmly on the sartorialist’s map. Time to go east.

During the first snow of the year 3 year-old Nate Denton wanders away from his father’s truck and disappears. The fevered search for him ends with the devastating discover of his tiny, frozen body. Nate’s death throws the small foothills community of Angel’s Crest into disarray. The inhabitants confront what Nate’s death means to them and in the face of that struggle they deal with their own concepts of right and wrong. Stars Jeremy Piven

TweetThe exhibition offers, as the title indicates, a personal reflection on how to navigate life. It is not a self-help or how to guide. It is an interlinked series of meditations on being. Being Wes Lang and being all of us. The subject matter is personal universal, complex and mundane; friends and mentors, dead, alive or both. Good times, bad times and the value of each. The hazards of living, enjoying life, cigarettes and drink, in the light of our impending death. Love for one, for many and briefly for all. The rage and acceptance of not going gentle into that good night.
The works reference a diverse and eclectic selection of artists and thinkers such as Walt Whitman, Ram Dass, Bob Dylan, Cy Twombly, The Grateful Dead, Glenn Gould, Chet Baker, Martin Kippenberger and Jean Michel Basquiat amongst others. In Wes Lang’s work, these references bleed into a song about appreciating life. Be here now. A path through uncertain times, a personal letter expressing confidence in self doubt, beauty, ugliness and human abilities. The letter ends with the words ”Eyes Of The World – Best Wishes” in the painting titled “Freedom Machine” featuring a large portrait of the grim reaper.
Exhibition runs through to November 12th, 2011

One of the founding figures of conceptual art, and one of its most astute critics, Mel Bochner combines colour and language in his work.
The exhibition traces his work over the last 50 years, from the 1960s and 70s and his early installations, wall drawings and works on paper, to his most recent series of exuberant paintings using a thesaurus to generate word chains full of wit and humour.
This is the first major European survey show of the US artist.
