There’s not much to be said about this classic snow globe design from the duo Ligorano/Reese. It’s the perfect gift for many occasions.

Originally designed as a limited edition sculptural piece, cast in heavy polyurethane resin, the David Shrigley Swan has been blown up, literally. This inflatable swan may be missing the graceful curves true to a classic swan, but with its hand-drawn blank expression and erect white neck, it knows exactly what it is, it is a "Ridiculous Inflatable Swan-Thing." Named lovingly by David Shrigley himself, the statuesque swan stands at 35 inches tall and comprises all that is to love about Shrigley's charismatic work, while also being pool-ready.

This set of four mirrored coasters entitled The Night You Left are by Nir Hod.  Each set includes four different designs lined with digitally printed white powder that has a tactile quality. Decadent and eye-catching these are one of our best-sellers and are easily gift-able. Each set comes in a sleek custom black box.

The title of the set suggests a lonely narrative, a moment of solitude. “There is a certain magic in loneliness,” Hod explains, “you have to be alone to create.” He adds, “It’s not about drugs or glamour—it’s about the inside world, where you can dream and love and seek a greater truth—it’s about a feeling of being connected to something so human."

Created in collaboration with our partners at The Prospect, NY.

It's true that there's no real function to David Shrigley's Swan, but it aligns with our sense of humor and we just couldn't resist. It's the right size to place anywhere in your home -- side table, coffee table, bathroom, shelf -- and is one of our favorites for gifting. Each example is initialed by the artist and labeled on the bottom.

The story reads:
It is a silly story. I was about thirty. A man phoned to say that he and I were making similar work and should meet. I always worry I might miss out on something so I agreed. When he arrived he told me his art consisted of stopping women in the street and asking them to sleep with him. Well, he said, wasn't one of my projects all about getting strangers to spend time in my bed? He told me he was taking me to a barbecue. I spent the whole evening playing the maid, grilling sausages, serving and cleaning up. Time goes by faster when you're busy. Later he dropped me off outside my door. He leaned into me and saught my lips. I pushed him away. "What makes you think I'd want to kiss you?" I protested. "Well, anyway," he answered, "you eat like a pig." Even today, after all these years, his words haunt me. I can't remember a thing about him, yet he's still sitting at my table.

Caravaggio’s Medusa (Medusa Marinara) features an image of Muniz’s recreation of Caravaggio’s Medusa (1590, Gallerica degli Uffizi, Florence) rendered in pasta marinara.

“The Trump drawings were done as posters for the Women’s March in January 2017.  The images were then used by the Skateroom to make skateboards to sell. The proceeds, the money, goes to building schools in underprivileged countries.
My answer is Yes.”     Paul McCarthy, 2018

Apple Pipe is a life-size, fully functioning tobacco pipe that undermines and commemorates the original classic improvisation.

Much of Jensen's sculptural work relies on an alchemy between the subject, the material, and the act of making. For this series of objects, Jensen sculpts intentionally self-conscious representations of everyday things and through her play with scale and functionality, as well as her choice of material, she evokes the humor and intuitive insight for which her larger body of work is known.
