UOVO is now getting ready to go to Miami Beach for the Art Basel fair(s). Another exhibition is scheduled in the design district, and Uovo/16 will be presented as well. Uovo is not to be stopped soon. Uovo/15 is on the way to the stores.

Capricious issue #7 is now available! PEEK is curated by Art+Commerce and features 11 portfolios.

Palais magazine from Paris has a brilliant new issue out. In conjunction with the exhibitions, events, lectures and performances in the Palais de Tokyo programme, every three months PALAIS / outlines the expanding artistic universe that programme reflects.

For its issue #4, PALAIS / has invited the artist Ugo Rondinone to create a special issue to tie up with the The Third Mind exhibition which he is curating (exhibition on show at the Palais de Tokyo from 27 September 2007 to 3 January 2008).

Consisting entirely of pictures, this issue documents the 350 works by the 30 artists chosen by Ugo Rondinone which will be presented at the Palais de Tokyo. A huge cut-up made by the artist with the 350 works of the artists of the group show, illustrated with 30 different covers, each copy of the magazine is a unique artist book, thanks to a pioneering random method of production. A collector’s item!
