Cute Thing: Creepy, Coy Unicorn from the Future

Check out this awesome piece from Norwegian artist Børre Sæthre's current exhibition at P.S. 1:



Look at that lil guy! So coquettish! He is creepy but I like him.

Sæthre's show is up through Jan 26, 2009. I'm not familiar with him, but I'm intrigued. I'm definitely going to try to peep the exhibition soon.

And look what else is at P.S. 1 through Sept 14, 2009. CRAZERS:



That wacky thing is Leandro Erlich's piece Swimming Pool! I can't wait to see it in person. It looks so vertigo-inducing. In a FUN way!
