Easily one of the most amazing art shows I've ever seen, Holton Rower's new "Pour Paintings" up now at The Hole Gallery in NY are well worth a plane trip. These pieces are so unreal they beg to be seen in person to be believed. X - Jen

I'm obsessed with Viviane Sassen's Parasomnia, Sol & Luna, and Various Photographs (and I need to see more). Luckily, Assembly New York and Libraryman will be having a launch for her new book, Die Son Sien Alles. I wonder what this series is about. Her work is so natural and compelling. See you at the book opening to find out! -Maggie Lee

Vancouver based painter Alex Heilbron presents her first Vancouver solo exhibition at Shudder Gallery (433 Columbia St.), titled "Haphy". She describes Haphy as "a whimsical, non-sense word that describes a partial feeling half-way happy". Four years of Alex's work, which is described as "a narrative referencing '70s style cartoons and modernist paintings" will be presented in a light-hearted but emphatic exhibition that is a response to the habitual interpretation of contemporary art. The exhibition opens on Thursday April 19 and runs until May 5.-Jennilee
