Courtesy Victoria Miro Gallery, London £36,000 06 £5,000 $45,000 + VAT 08 07 05 Comic books rarely work a less-is-more aesthetic. This new print from Christian Marclay, however, is just a little tornoff corner of a cartoon, against a wilderness of white. Bearing the onomatopoeic ‘Krak!’, with an afterthought-bubble, ‘what was that sound?’, it reflects the artist’s concerns with how sound – in this case what he has described as ‘sound haikus’ – is mediated. His new series of comic strip collages will be shown at White Cube Hoxton Square until 10 March. WWW.WHITECUBE.COM 06 First Christie’s opened their office, and now there’s the Gulf Art Fair, emphatically announcing Dubai’s place in cultural commerce. While director John Martin’s prediction of a ‘Left Bank feel’ to the natural home of oil billionaires sounds a little off, the selection of 40 international galleries promises to deliver more than dollars. Special projects for the fair include work by Conrad Shawcross earlier piece shown . There is even a local inclusion: the Third Line gallery, specialising in work by young artists. WWW.GULFARTFAIR.COM 07 Marcel Wanders’s new Crochet Chair presents potential sitters with a shape that’s as round and inviting as a beanbag, in materials that are positively ethereal: white lace crochet stretched over nothing but air. In fact it has been hardened with epoxy resin, rendering the favoured fabric of fragile old ladies as solid as marble. Debuting at Design Miami, it was a fitting follow-up to the awardwinning Dutch designer’s lace table, and perfect for those who want to tap bygone days with twentyfirst-century style. WWW.MARCELWANDERS.NL WWW.BARRYFRIEDMANLTD.COM 08 inIVA and Autograph ABP have worked with some exciting international artists over the years, and a new print portfolio put together by the arts agencies reflects this. Sonia Boyce, Isaac Julien, Glenn Ligon, Hew Locke, Carrie Mae Weems her work shown and Chris Ofili have all created new works for an edition of 50, proceeds from which will go towards Rivington Place, a 15,000square-foot building for showing works by artists from diverse cultural backgrounds. Designed by David Adjaye, it promises to be a welcome addition to the London art map.
