For years, Eiji Ohashi (EIJI OHASHI) has been photographing vending machines across Japan. He captures them at nighttime, when their bright colours and lights come to life.

It’s thought that Japan has the highest number of vending machines per person of anywhere in the world. Ohashi considers them to be like beacons, found even in the most rural areas.

Taiwanese artist Chen Ching-Yuan (陳敬元 Chen Ching-Yuan) creates paintings inspired by the evocative nature of literature, mythology and history, bringing together humanity and imagined worlds.

His works coalesce into a constellation of constructed imagery and dreamlike scenes that reflect personal and collective memory. Made with gestural, textured brushwork, they aren’t fixed to a place or time – instead they address ambiguities like presence and absence, or clarity and the unknown.

In his series titled ‘The Treatment’, photographer Alexander Krack captured historic German spa towns where leisure and medical care have coexisted for centuries.

Travelling to dozens of rehabilitation centres, he photographed their landscapes, clinics and visitors. The resulting works showcase a structured, uncanny world designed to promote health and relaxation.

Two legendary sculptures by Maurizio Cattelan (MAURIZIO CATTELAN), ‘Novecento’ and ‘Not Afraid of Love’, are now available as limited editions for the first time. Originally created in 1997 and 2000, they’re among Cattelan’s most recognisable works.

Together, they create a complementary pair balancing grandeur and vulnerability, power and absurdity.

Each sculpture is hand-painted, individually numbered and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

Huge congratulations to Tschabalala Self (T$CH@B@LALA S£LF) on the unveiling of her Fourth Plinth sculpture in London, titled ‘Lady in Blue’. 💙

Multiple art history references come together in the piece, like its colour – which is derived from a pigment refined from Lapis Lazuli, a rare mineral used by artists for millennia.

As Self says, the figure’s presence is “not an idol to venerate or a historic figurehead to commemorate”. Rather, “She is a woman walking forward into our collective future with ambition and purpose. She is a Londoner, who represents the city’s spirit.”

’Lady in Blue’ will be on view in Trafalgar Square until 2028.

Our latest collaboration with Cai Guo-Qiang (Cai Guo-Qiang 蔡國強) has arrived, and it’s unlike anything we’ve worked on before.

In an exploration of quantum entanglement, ‘Pegasus’ will be released as 100 paired compositions, each work linked to that of another collector through a bespoke fuse. Cai will ignite each fuse by hand, leaving each pair of prints marked by the traces of their shared explosion.

For the chance to collect and find your cosmic pairing, head to the link in bio and enter the draw. Closes 30 October at 17:00 UK time.

We’re delighted to announce our upcoming collaboration with William Mapan (William Mapan) and Matt Deslauriers (Matt DesLauriers), created with the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum) as part of their second Digital Art Season, On Agency.

Both artists explored the V&A’s collection with the museum’s curatorial team, each creating a new work in response to what they saw. “I was particularly drawn to the Colette & Charles Bangert pen plotter works”, explains Deslauriers, renowned for his algorithmic interpretations of nature and mathematics. “The lines were chaotic, drawn with the exact precision of a mechanical arm – there was something captivating in that contrast”.

For this landmark release, we worked closely with the V&A to translate each artist’s work into two forms: a unique digital edition offered via draw, and a signed, time-limited silkscreen print. Both are fundraising editions for the V&A.

It’s a collaboration that captures the spirit of the V&A’s Digital Art Season which looks at the fluid boundaries between human and machine agency– work that exists as code, and work you can also hold in your hands. For Mapan, that’s precisely the point: each edition is, in his words, “building a bridge between the virtual world and the human world.”

Full details of the collaboration coming soon. Sign up via the link in our bio for updates.

For each artwork sold, 14% of the sale price, excluding any shipping, taxes and/ or minting costs, will be donated to the V&A.

‘The Whale’ (2024) is a series by photographer Shahram Saadat (Shahram Saadat) which captures people sitting in their cars in a car wash in southern England. It illustrates the unusual pause offered by a contained environment, sealed off from the outside world for a moment.

On the series, Saadat said, “I was interested in exploring whether there was a moment in our lives when we could afford to be guilt-free about not optimising our time effectively... Allowing you to zone out, argue, kiss, or sing in order to pass the time. A moment of respite.”

Introducing our debut collaboration with American painter Loie Hollowell (Loie Hollowell) – a new limited edition print titled ‘Mother’s Milk’.

The first work from Hollowell’s ‘Mother’s Milk’ series to be made as a limited edition, the piece explores the body, motherhood and the passage of time through her distinctive language of abstraction.

The original work has been translated into a 39-layer silkscreen, with matte, gloss and iridescent varnishes and fine Merck sparkles bringing depth and light to the surface.

Edition of 75, signed by the artist.
