Muse: Sincerity
I CONSIDER MY INSPIRATION to be sincerity. Truth. We're born with sincerity. A baby is sincere when it cries or yells—as anyone who has had kids knows. Sincerity comes naturally, a reaction to the whole environment. But it gets complicated very quickly.

The Italian painter Domenico Gnoli died at age 36 in 1970, just a few months after closing an exhibition at Sidney Janis Gallery in New York. Janis was one of the leading venues for blue-chip Pop artists, who (it is worth remembering) were first called “New Realists” in a landmark exhibition at the gallery in 1962.

Unalienated Labor: Q&A with Ann Agee
Ornate historical ceramics and a funky Brooklyn lifestyle come together in Ann Agee's current exhibition, "The Kitchen Sink," at Locks Gallery in Philadelphia.

Cinematic Crises: Q+A with Jesper Just
For "This Nameless Spectacle," Jesper Just's current exhibition at James Cohan in Chelsea (his first with the gallery), the Danish artist has mounted installations of three recent videos.

The Top Picks at ABC
A low-key cheerful mood prevails at the attractively regrouped and revamped abc Art Berlin Contemporary, which opened at Station Berlin in the city's Kreuzberg neighborhood [through Sept. 16]. As the organizers explained to the press, whom they seemed to suspect had come expecting otherwise, theirs is not a "fair" but an "exhibition." While the faintest whiff of commerce, only "gallerists"—not dealers—participated. Each booth is designated by the featured artist (solos only) and not by the gallery name, which is in fine type.

Nicole Eisenman's Prints and People
Eight months ago, Nicole Eisenman locked her paints away and turned exclusively to prints. Operating feverishly in four different workshops, both alone and in collaboration, the Brooklyn-based artist has produced a trove of works in various mediums—etching, lithography, monotype and woodcut. Her large, inventive monotypes—colorful works focusing a big head, or on a single figure or two in playful combinations—were her contribution to the most recent Whitney Biennial, often singled out for praise in reviews of the show.
