Since the early 1990s, Fred Tomaselli's work has critiqued utopias and dystopias, and has examined the sublime in suburban American culture. His colorful works are instantly recognizable due to his use of pharmaceuticals and illicit drugs to create his elaborate paintings This survey of Tomaselli's career includes an essay by the American novelist Rick Moody, author of The Ice Storm and Demonology.

From the doodled limp penises, spread legs, and equally spread orifices of her earlier, all-over paintings to the brilliant, bold, riotously colorful strokes of her latest painterly forays into abstraction, Sue Williams has been the cheeky and unabashedly ballsy purveyor of an aggressive, gorgeous, and graphic style all her own. Sue Williams: A Fine Line offers a close-up look at work from 1995 through 2001 alongside glowing, contextulaizing essays by noted critics Barry Schwabsky and Michael Rush.

Slovenian artist Marjetica Potrc discovers beauty in the unplanned urban landscapes of shantytowns, trailer parks, and barrios. In her installations in various art institutions across the globe, she sends instructions to the musum staff on how to build her installations--often inspired by a type of shelter found halfway across the world--out of local materials. Here she instructs/constructs a massive installation of housing units based on observations made of temporary shelters and gated communities in Caracas, the West Bank, and West Palm Beach. Urgent Architecture Includes a DVD of an interview with the artist.
