Easy
Dutch
April, 2001
From Rotterdam comes another excuse for grown-ups to make shopping a family
affair. Scented with the memories of toys that adulthood made you forget,
the objects of mno allow design lovers to indulge their tastes while satisfying
the need of their real and inner child. This is a world where couches double
as smurfs' living quarters, chairs are the clouds of early daydreams and
kitchen utensils are spaceships ready to depart. Here, adolescence is when
children start bringing up their parents.

Douglas
Coupland : SPIKE
September, 2001
Douglas Coupland, author of GENERATION X, presented his first New York art show
entitled SPIKE at Totem Gallery. Spike is the first full-sized sculpture installation
Douglas Coupland has done since 1986. Why sculpture instead of words? He is asked
that all the time. The best answer that I can think of is that sculpture is a
frozen 3D snapshot of the world as seen through an emotional and critical lens.
Sculpture uses a different part of the brain or a different part of the soul‚ the
self.
