Jon Burgerman's Lossy Botany Lab at the Helium Cowboy!

This July, Jon Burgerman and Heliumcowboy artspace will set up the Lossy Data Lab (NY 2009) again. For another time, Jon will explore the boundaries of art and scientific research in a neo-dadaistic manner:

"The Lossy Data Lab has had to relocate and move it’s research into botany after a lot of the data from NYC seemed in conclusive and corrupted. The lab also ran out of money. It felt studying plant life, observing new species and creating its own hybrid forms would be a better use of its merge resources. Also, through pure chance and accident the lab has discovered some of the plants it’s cultivating have special medicinal properties. We’d like to state that the lab is in no way going to purely focus it’s energies growing and selling such specimens to the down trodden and hedonistic thrill seekers of society." (Jon Burgerman)

“The Lossy Botany Lab” is the second solo exhibition of the young british artist in Hamburg that brings together a whole series of new works including soft sculp-tures, paintings, drawings as well as a botanical installation on site.

And they need your help! Bring your plants to Jon!

Donators will receive a small yet valuable gift from the president of the Lab, Mr Jon Burgerman, as a thank you at the opening gala event on the evening of July 1st. House plants, cacti, small shrubs, potted herbs, sticks with leaves on them, will all be gratefully accepted.

Just drop them off at the Lossy Data Lab HQ: heliumcowboy artspace, Bäckerbreitergang 73-75,
UNTIL TUESDAY, June 29 the latest! The earlier the better!

Lossy Botany Lab, Vernissage Thursday, July 1st, 8 - 11 pm

w[A]nderland: comes from to wander + the land of fairytales, the Reign of Queen Alice. Like our world, the place represented by the 2 artists is only in appearence enchanted, free and happy: acutally it carries the germs of contamination, corruption and insanity.
No childhood is safe, no more fairytales, our two amphitryons will open up our eyes on the cruel reality: innocence is lost forever.
Proceeds of some Fidia artworks will be devoluted to Amnesty International and Emergency.

w[A]nderland: deriva dall’unione di to wander (errare, vagare, vagabondare, deviare, uscire dalla retta via, tradire, delirare) con la terra incantata teatro delle fiabe popolari e scenario incontrastato di Regina Alice. Una terra al pari di quella in cui viviamo, all’apparenza incantata, libera, evoluta e felice ma che, nelle realtà su cui ci rifiutiamo di indagare, porta dentro di se i germi della devianza, dell’oblio, del tradimento. Germi che crescono sempre più velocemente, con l’aumento di un degrado intellettuale e civile facilmente rintracciabile nella nostra contemporaneità.I due anfitrioni di questo luogo magico e decadente ci mostrano due percorsi personali differenti.

All'inaugurazione di w[A]nderland interverranno Emergency e Amnesty International e i proventi della vendita di alcune delle opere di Fidia saranno legati a una raccolta fondi a favore delle due associazioni.

Joe Ledbetter solo show!



This June, join iconic Los Angeles artist Joe Ledbetter for the highly-anticipated debut of Magnus Maximus. A solo exhibition of different stripes, Magnus Maximus is
an epic travel adventure based on Ledbetter’s journeys through Europe and beyond.
For his first solo show at Corey helford Gallery, Ledbetter creates an extraordinary collection of new paintings and drawings, filled with engaging narratives and bold visuals that are as autobiographical as they are a classic hero story. A true tale of wretched victory, Magnus Maximus is a character study in twists of fate and fortune, power and privilege.
“For me, it has cumulatively epitomized everything I’ve been working toward for the past 9 years as a painter. Personal narrative, sardonic or humorous undertones, familiar scenarios, strong shadowed bold lines, bright colors, limited palette, and hopefully great characters one can sympathize and fall in love with.”

Open to the public, the reception for Magnus Maximus will take place on Friday, June 4 from 7 to 10pm, and the show will be exhibited until June 23, 2010 at Corey Helford Gallery, Culver city, LA

Camilla D'Errico solo show!
