Concept: With few wolves scattered in the front gallery, all ninety-nine wolves run, gallop, and jump toward the far end of the exhibition hall, where a wall stands. The bravery of the wolves is met head on by the unyielding wall. As the leading wolves go down, many more follow with force and determination. As those in the front fall and pile up, those behind take up their positions.

While searching for talent for Caw to art! I visited Saatchi Online where the gallery has frequent week-long competitions called Showdowns. “The deer” brings new meaning to head-to-head.
The deer. Michal Cole, artist.
Which reminds me. A hip asian place in our neighborhood, where everyone dresses in black/white. White tables. White art-free walls, pure, completely empty walls for two years—until two weeks ago. And now look at the walls. WTF.
