"God Loves Fish" is the name of this one-person show by Ismael Cosme at the Fusion Museum. Check out this one-person show on the Lower East Side at the most interesting gallery by contemporary artists in Manhattan. Fusion Arts showcases one of it's own, Ismael Cosme with his amazing work from November 15 - December 13th. I had the good fortune to meet Ismael at the opening on November 15th. His humility and sense of humour in his work should make collectors and critics alike to take notice. Ismael takes found objects and transforms them into art from deep within his soul, a personal vision that is at once universal. From the press release:
"The Art of Ismael Cosme embodies the ideals of compassion, reverence, love of nature and spirituality."
Here are a few photos of Ismael with his work

And of course, "What the Hell is It Ethel?" continues in the main gallery until November 29th. A group exhibit that transforms every day objects into....what else, ART!! I have two pieces of my own in this show ("Your Suicide is No Longer About You" & "All Roads Lead to Wal Mart". And, NO, this is not a conflict of interest. If we don't support each other, then what kind of a world is this Ethel?
