Boletus Luridus, a 20x200 Vintage EditionWell hey there mushroom hunter—we found you a treasure trove. This Victorian-era scientific illustration overfloweth with fleshy fungal fecundity (and has a subtly feminist backstory to boot). And can we just say it feels like something Julia Child would have hanging in her kitchen while she swirls some butter in a sauté pan? Boletus luridus is, in a word, enchanting. There’s something magical about mushrooms (hallucinogenic or otherwise). We’re talking...

Sweet Indian Doll III by Qiana Mestrich Qiana Mestrich is back, and just in time to wake up our gallery walls for fall. Today’s new edition by the Brooklynite, artist, and educator represents our second select from her photo-based project The Black Doll Series.

Below, Vitkus unpacks the happy-making humor in several...

Lemur from Madagascar by Jennifer Orkin Lewis If the overcast approach of autumn has put a damper on your summer sunshine high, we’re all the more excited to introduce you to new 20x200 artist Jennifer Orkin Lewis and her debut edition Lemur from Madagascar. Lewis’s arboreal island dweller swung right into our hearts at first sight. It’s patently impossible to forgo this painting’s feel-good energy.

We’ve been huge Jane Mount admirers for a real long time, and it doesn’t help that the artist keeps rolling out new projects, objects and artworks to keep us oohing and ahhing. The magic takes place in her Hawaiian headquarters, and inquiring minds (hi) wanted to see behind the curtain. Mount had time to sneak an In the Studio interview into her busy sched, and our nosy payoff is next level. Turns out her “studio”...
