WHAT'S NEW

Plush Trophies by Lana Crooks





Fresh off yesterday's great news about Dustin Cantrell, comes an update on another custoMONDAY alum, the plushinator Lana Crooks. Lana's got an upcoming solo show featuring her great plush critters tacked up as trophies. Trophy opens September 26th at Chicago's OhNo!Doom Gallery. Not nearby? Look for them online, or if you're in the San Francisco area, stop by Rocketworld, where Patrick Ma has a nice Crooks Squid in his personal collection.

Here's the press release:

Enter the lodge and discover creatures you never new existed. Big game Baku, small game jackalope and a number of other ridiculous critters grace the trophy room’s walls. It’s Lana Crook’s new show, Trophy. Put down your musket, no animals have been harmed (or even taunted) in the making of this show. This solo exhibit features Lana’s new hand-made and one-of-a-kind sculptural plush works.

Lana, a self proclaimed “plushinator”, creates illustrative works with fabric. Most of her pieces hang on the wall, fixed in place, while others are free standing (or sitting) sculptural objects. One will still see some of Lana’s signature cephalopods but will also be exposed to a bevy of new creatures. Her new pieces have been inspired by folklore and a little twisted reality. Come by the gallery and warm yourself by the plush fire. Crooks’ Trophy opens September 26th 2009 (6-10pm) and will be up for viewing until October 20th at OhNo!Doom in Chicago, IL.
