The Cuteness Factor
Curated by MAJ Ajna and Jan ELANTKOWSKI
June 23 - November 12, 2023

The aim of the exhibition is to present and contextualise a current tendency in contemporary art, and especially in painting.
The artworks, mainly by artists of the middle-aged generation, are constantly revisiting familiar characters from the cartoons of the 1990s.
It is an easily detected visual language that oscillates between abstraction and figuration, experimenting with the conscious blurring and
interplay or even separation of these two poles. The works are assembled in a patchwork-like manner, based on iconic symbols, elements taken from
popular culture and a combination of various artistic styles.

For this reason, the works, often based on elements taken from real-life imagery or everyday life, mostly from cartoons and comics,
are both familiar and alienating. Everything seems to be in place, but there is something disquieting, something suspicious about them.

The absurd experience of recent years, the emergence of global problems and conflicts and increased digitalisation have been a heavy mental burden
for the man who lost his footing. The exhibited artworks approach global or everyday problems that seriously affect societies in a light and playful way,
with humour and (self-)irony. Adding a critical tone to the notion of “cuteness”, they encourage the audience to question perfectionism and kitsch
mediated and represented mainly by social media.

The international selection will recall a transcontinental vision that reflects on the universality of art alongside globalisation.

EXHIBITING ARTISTS: Katherine BERNHARDT, Cosima von BONIN, BOZÓ Szabolcs, Jon BURGERMAN, Paul CHAN, Maja DJORDJEVIC,
Philip EMDE, FISCHER Judit, Max FREUND, GALLOV Péter, GELITIN, Antwan HORFEE, Ben JONES, Teppei KANEUJI, Misaki KAWAI, Austin LEE,

June 21 - August 27, 2023

The Hole is proud to present Title IX a sports-themed group show across our two New York galleries, Bowery and Tribeca, curated by Charlotte Grüssing.
The exhibition’s title references the policy that requires educational institutions to treat all sexes and gender identities equally, widely known for its impact
on expanding opportunities for women and girls in sports. While celebrating women and historically excluded groups in sports, the exhibit highlights both
Title IX’s impacts and shortcomings while more broadly exploring the politics, pleasure and power of sports.

Printed Matter: Benefit Auction 2021


Printed Matter + Artsy are thrilled to present Printed Matter's Spring Benefit Auction featuring more than sevennty
artworks from contemporary artists in support of the organization's work on behalf of artists' books and publishing.

Browse lots and place bids before the sale closes on Tuesday, June 15th, at 12pm EDT.

The proceeds from this auction will provide vital support for Printed Matter, the world's leading
nonprofit organization dedicated to the distribution, understanding and appreciation of artists' books
and related publications. Founded in 1976, Printed Matter represents over 12,000 titles by some 6000 artists
from across the globe, and provides a broad range of free programs and services to artists and the public,
including events and exhibitions, Art Book Fairs, and a broad distribution platform through its two nonprofit
bookstores and its website printedmatter.org, one of the most extensive bibliographic databases for artists' publications in the world.

Funds raised in this benefit auction will play a critical role in Printed Matter's rebound from lost revenue due to the Covid pandemic,
and will help ensure that Printed Matter will continue to thrive into the future.

During the pandemic, Printed Matter has worked hard to support artists while connecting artists' books and audiences in new ways,
from its first-ever Virtual Art Book Fair to an ongoing calendar of online events addressing a broad range of themes in artists' publishing.
In these precarious and challenging times the importance of the work we do has become even more clear. Artists' books bring people together
and connect us — they open spaces for people to experiment, collaborate, explore, discover, and learn, and we need them more than ever.

We are deeply grateful for the generous support of our participating artists and donors.

Each work ships from a different location, as noted on the individual lot pages. Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

In conjunction with our Spring Benefit Auction hosted by Artsy, we are very pleased to present an online gallery of artworks to benefit
Printed Matter on printedmatter.org, featuring work by Leidy Churchman, Barbara Hammer, Tishan Hsu, Dave Muller, Kayode Ojo, and Michael E. Smith.

To contribute further critical support to Printed Matter, please visit HERE to donate.

PRINTED MATTER / ST. MARKS / STORE TAKEOVER


From May 12th through June 20th, Printed Matter / St Marks will host a takeover by Misaki Kawai.
The store will have several of Kawai’s pettable, combable sculptures with Emoji-like faces, including
some recent works from her solo exhibition at The Hole, Moko Moko Doki Doki. Other works include two paintings,
a Lion Bench and several of her Arty Dolls. The takeover is organized in collaboration with The Hole.

Misaki Kawai shares open and inviting works with the public to build connection through art.
Her giant sculptures have rudimentary faces like emojis and are rated G, all ages. The paintings
circulate faces and text to show the rudimentary building blocks of the world, “chu” (kiss), “suki” (like),
“peko peko” (hungry), “pero pero” (licking), “kuru kuru” (spinning). Using mimetic word pairings Kawai creates
a zone of creative play; bold, colorful and immersive.

On this occasion we are also pleased to launch Kawai’s latest book MOKO MOKO DOKI DOKI,
available in five different (fuzzy) colors produced in a limited edition of 18 per color.

Works on Paper | V1 Gallery shop


Made in her home in Los Angeles during quarantine, the series is inspired by omurice, a popular Japanese home food since the early 1900s.
Painted in her signature hasty, brushy intuitive style with puffy paint pens in synthetic colors, the new works on paper have a tactile puffy quality,
not unlike the Japanese omurice. An analogy with the hybrid creatures that morph considerably, changing color and form.
“Squeeze your pen, and make yum yum paintings!” – Misaki Kawai
