Great artists, great book: The Upset

081011_theUpset_book.jpg

Out now: The Upset, a new book by Gestalten Verlag, is a great documentation of "a new breed of contemporary artists". It features a massive bunch of established and emerging young artists, among them plenty of whom we have been working with for years: Casey McKee, moki, FriendsWithYou, to name a few. Highly recommended.

Jon Burgerman wants you.

080819_flyer_burgerman.jpg

Next saturday, August 30, we will open our next exhibition at the gallery (Sternstraße 4!), presenting Jon Burgerman's first solo show in Germany. And for this, Jon asks the people from Hamburg for their participation:

Jon Burgerman wants to help draw out the apparitions lurking in your everyday objects and exhibit them as part of his exhibition. Simply drop off a household object at the gallery before the show opening between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. (mon - fri) to be part of the exhibition (you may also contact us before: 040-484 088 60 or 0175-22 44 088).

Jon will take these objects, access their paranormal worth and customise them accordingly. The objects should be no smaller than a matchbox but no bigger than a cat. Once the exhibition has been completed you can return to the gallery to receive a random object as donated by someone else.

DARE: new magazine launched

080527_daremag.jpg

It is not just because they feature a big interview with our gallerist, Jörg, inside. It is also not because they invited Jörg to speak on the panel at their launchparty last weekend at Westwerk. Or that heliumcowgirl Veronika supplied the photo for the artwork on the cover. Or that it is full to the brim with a lot of artists we admire. No, we really do feel that this is one of the freshest, strongest, best designed, outstandingly written and ... simply most remarkable art publications we held in our hands in a long, long time: the new DARE magazine is out! Issue number 2, titled "Hype", features stories with and about artists, movers and shakers from the art scenes of Hamburg and Berlin.

Get it at galleries, selected bookstores, or directly through their website:

It's time to Re-build

These days, years of content and the enourmous growth of visits on our site have simply gotten too big to handle for the simple technology behind it. That's why we will be relaunching our site soon, say within the next couple of weeks. It's going to be a massive work, but hey, that is the story of our lives here at heliumcowboy ...

During this time, this site will remain fully functional, so nothing changes until we are done ... changing.

Please bear with us if there may be the occasional delay or detour, and probably less news then we'd usually like to post...

The death of an artwork: A horror-movie.

Well, you may have wondered what we should be doing with the large cardboard sculpture by Boris Hoppek for his last exhibition "I won't fuck with you tonight" after the show closed end of may. The sculpture was about 4.60 meters high and aprox. 3 meters in diameter, and our gallery doors are way to small for that. So if a buyer is interested, Boris rebuilds it at the final location, as we could only save the head from being destroyed...

So this is what happened ... click on the image or the link below (and turn up the volume) to see the movie you never wanted to see: how to kill an artwork. Excecuted by a Bimbo, obviously.
