[MUST SEE] June Culp @ Freddy Gallery in Baltimore

Freddy Gallery presents a solo exhibition by Baltimore-based artist, June Culp. There is a compelling psycho-sexual violence embedded in Culp's paintings that is reinforced by the large scale and reductive imagery.

On view until May 2 at Freddy Gallery, 510 West Franklin Street, Baltimore, Maryland

Vincent Lamouroux White Washes Iconic L.A. Roach Motel

Los Angeles has a fondness for obliterating it's architectural history, by bulldozing old classic motels, hotels, and culturally significant residences, like they did back in January when a real estate developer tore down science-fiction writer Ray Bradbury's home in Cheviot Hills. This time around, the city gave the go ahead to French artist Vincent Lamouroux to completely white wash the classically seedy Sunset Pacific Motel - along with an adjacent billboard and all the surrounding palm trees. Don't worry, no palm trees were hurt in the making of this public art exhibition - the artist used a white lime wash (not paint) that is ecologically sound. You only have a few more weeks to few the project until the lime wash wears away. photograph by Lord Jim

Adanowsky Has Surreal Orgasm with Stoya In New Music Video

Adan Jodorowsky - AKA Adanowsky - (son of cult filmmaker and artist Alejandro Jodorowsky) stars and directs in his new music video, alongside pornstar Stoya, for the track Would You Be Mine. In a bedlam of forrest and jungle animals and two geishas, Jodorowsky and Stoya embrace in multiple, sometimes sacrilegious (if you count sodomy with a crucifix sacrilegious), positions until the pornstar comes to a climax in beautiful liquid form. Oh, and then they fly away together. Watch the video above - we won't judge you if you need to be alone.

Inspired by video games, conspiracy theorists, and Chinese food, Hanlon also tackles larger, more serious issues such as the pressures and challenges women face and the weight of love.Hanlon had this to say about the new video:

“We dressed up as Princess Toadstool and ran through LA in search of a Castle. Costumes were created by Jessica Owen and Vanessa Gonzalez, our guitar player and keyboardist who also happen to be costume designers. Running around in a group of princesses was extremely fun and I hope to have the opportunity again some day.”
