The Creative 05.15.2008

For two days in New York every year, Tokion magazine pulls its global strings to pack the Cooper Union Art and Science college with some of the top creative talent from the world over. For anyone who keeps up with the current masterminds of culture and the Who’s Who of art, design, curating, architecture and film, this year’s roster of presenters will cause no less salivation that previous years. Check out the partial list below:
Harmony Korine (Gummo, Julien Donkey-Boy, Mister Lonely, Kids); Kathy Grayson (Deitch Projects); Klaus Biesenbach (MoMA/P.S.1); Shamim M. Momin (Whitney Museum of American Art); Thomas Duncan (Gagosian Gallery); Massimiliano Gioni (New Museum of Contemporary Art); José Friere (Owner of New York’s Team Gallery); Lizzi Bougatsos of Gang Gang Dance; Nate Lowman; Gardar Eide Einarsson; Hanna Liden; Gary Panter; C.F.; and Lucky Dragons.
Salivate a bit more while thumbing through the rest of the line up and grabbing a ticket here — the event sells out every year, so grab soon!
