We lost another legend in the art world, as Surrealist painter and wife to Max Ernst, Dorothea Tanning, passed away at the age of 101. Her paintings, Birthday (1942, Philadelphia Museum of Art) and, Eine kleine Nachtmusik(1943, Tate Modern, London) are some of the most famed by a female artist in the 20th century.

This should be good. Jonathan Yeo, who made major waves a few years ago with the porn collages that were portraits of famous politicians, has a new solo opening this Friday, December 9, at Lazarides Gallery. For this show, “Making a departure from his internationally renowned collages, Yeo’s latest body of work explores the rapidly expanding phenomenon of cosmetic surgery.”

A friend of a friend’s baby was held by Liam Gallagher this past weekend in London. In a bookstore. So Liam reads. And likes babies.

The piece is called “Shop Til You Drop,” and we all assume at this point that its Banksy. There is even some nice text at the bottom: “COPS AGAINST CUTS * The G=Good Cops.” (via Juxtapoz)
