Jim Hodges Wallpaper Edition
Artist Jim Hodges has created a very special wallpaper edition for his upcoming exhibition at the Contemporary, I Remember Heaven: Jim Hodges and Andy Warhol. Based upon one of his tender charcoal drawings, the wallpaper fills the wall with a repeating pattern of hand-drawn plants and flowers sensuously rendered in charcoal and embellished with metallic gold stars.
This wallpaper is hand silk-screened by Screen Reproduction, the exclusive publisher of Andy Warhol wallpaper, and is available for purchase as a 2-roll set (each roll 19 inches x 5 yards; total width 38 inches with a half-repeat pattern). Early sales price through Jan. 28: $750 per 2-roll set; regular price after Jan. 28: $1,000 per set. A catalogue of the exhibition will also be available for purchase from the Contemporary and through DAP in February 2007.
I Remember Heaven: Jim Hodges and Andy Warhol will be on view at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis from January 26 April 8, 2007.

Janaina Tschäpe Limited Edition Print
The Contemporary invited Janaina Tschäpe to create a new series of photographs and a video during a week-long residency at the Missouri Botanical Garden during the spring of 2006. In these photographs, her female models wear colorful biomorphic costumes with appendages of latex, fabrics, and inflatables that suggest fantastical creatures or imaginary vegetation.
Tschäpe has created a very special limited edition print of one of the works made at the Garden this spring: Tres Tria Bulbosus, C-print, 11 x 14 inches, edition of 20. These unframed prints are available for $1,000. A catalogue of the exhibition is also available for $30 from the Contemporary and through DAP.
