Gallery rounds *quick take.* Catherine Opie's “Holding Blue” at Regen Projects by Brittany Menjivar "Metaphorically, “blue” has two connotations: that which is raw and explicit, and that which is melancholy. While much of Catherine Opie’s work contends with the former, “Holding Blue” deals with th

MAY/JUNE 2026 FEATURE STORY: BUT WHAT DOES A RANDOM TEENAGER THINK? “Away from Desk” at Wilshire Online by Milosh Soberman Milosh Soberman is 14 years old and does not like art. This does not stop him from having opinions or us from printing them. Read the full story here:

BUT WHAT DOES A RANDOM TEENAGER THINK? - Artillery Magazine - Contemporary art news and criticism
I’m a 14-year-old boy who hates art. I recently went to Wilshire Online to see “Away from Desk.” Here are my opinions on it. The show included: an audio device playing melancholy choral tones, a stripper and a pole, a first aid kit hung diagonally on a wall, simple paintings behind bars, a Microsoft-branded flag in a flag holder, a series of tax forms depicting a person’s work life, and a broken cartoony ladder. 1. The audio piece¹ is a continuous choral rise with no end, just change in pitch, with nothing else interesting to it.
