Some Help for Artists, Galleries, Private Collections and Museums Impacted by Hurricane Sandy

As the Eastern Seaboard continues to recover from Hurricane Sandy, those impacted by the devastating storm are slowly coming to terms with the shock of losing art, furniture and other possessions, but we want them to know there are a few resources that can possibly help them with their recovery.

You’ve got to be kidding me! :) hyperallergic: Kill Famous Artists at #Rank by Hrag VartanianWe already warned you, so it should be no surprise that Paul Steen’s art world-ized open source video game based on Assault Cube, but injected with 150 of the “most important living artists” according to Artfacts.net, is awesome. In his virtual world you can roam PS1 or the Istanbul Biennial or at a Jeff Wall show at the Kunstwerk in Berlin gunning down famous artist to win the game. This isn’t a kumbaya game, people. You need to kill to win. But I have to admit that there’s nothing more fulfilling than reading “Damien Hirst fragged Jasper Johns.” Download the “Art Assault” modification here: paulsteen.se/aa.html And enjoy!

OddFellows Action Figures: The Artist Collection

We just ordered these great Action Figures from Jailbreak Toys. We’re always looking for something fun & hip for our office space. Yes, I said it “HIP”. So if you don’t feel the hipster vibe coming on ya with the artist series, you can show your cool with a tiny Shakespeare, Poe, Ghandi or Beethoven - if you’re so inclined.
