Mr.

New York, NY by Thomas Martin- Mr.'s new exhibition at Lehman Maupin's LES space include photographs, a film, and a painting (which doesn't seem to have much relation to the other two). Mr. has taken his critique of Japan's pedophilia subcultures to another level with a team of rag tag preteen girls engaged in war games with their archenemies, a band of older, ruthless punk styled gamers. Cutesy music, outfits and dialog mix with an assortment of butt and crotch shots make for plenty of uncomfortable and/but hilarious moments. Don't bring your mom or 11 year old niece.
