DAN COLEN. <\/p>\n

I’d sure like to know what brand of bubble gum he’s chewing, because it sure sticks to the bottom of your foot, er, I mean wallet. <\/p>\n

let’s hope the synthetic, cheery-looking stuff, sticks to the paintings, too. <\/p>\n

according to the New York Times … “another record price for an artist at auction was set for Dan Colen, ‘S&M’, one of the artist’s abstract canvases created only of chewing gum that was expected to bring $200,000 to $300,000, was bought by WENDY CROMWELL, an art adviser, for $480,000, or $578,000 with fees.”
\nthe action was at PHILLIPS de PURY.<\/p>\n

a clear vindication for artlovers . . . which posted vocal support for the ‘sticky’ work, in opposition to the negative review that appeared in the New York Times – when the bubble work first surfaced in a solo show at GAGOSIAN, a couple of years back. the show was titled ‘Poetry’ and ran from SEPT 10-OCT 6, 2010.<\/a><\/p>\n
