Urban Behaviours: Painting by Vassilis Karakatsanis
In Urban Behaviours, Karakatsanis risks his involvement in a socio-political debate. Vanity, carnalism and mixing of values reflect in the eyes and the bodies of the assembled people who constitute the body of his work whereas the repeated presence of the chair refers to the urban environment.

Exaltation of the Insignificants
From daily objects haphazardly floating on the subconscious canvas of Danae Anderson, to the haunting stands of abandoned chairs that had captivated Julia Pinkham's imagination; from the earthy yet ethereal (and sometimes quirky) portraitures of Noma and James Bliss to Dai Truong's abstraction of the resilient human spirit; together they remind us of the simple things in life, the ingredients of being that we often overlook or take for granted. Other artists include Salma Arastu, Michael Scott Olson, Garik Karapetyan and Alan Tarbell.

A woman photographer from Iran
Shadi Ghadirian
AEROPLASTICS contemporary presents the first complete monographic exhibition of the Iranian photographer Shadi Ghadirian. Coming to wide public attention in 2001 with the series Qajar and Like Everyday, the artist has ever continued to explore the theme of conflict between tradition and modernity, and that of the position of women in a society dominated by male stereotypes.
