Slick surfaces seemed pretty common around Chelsea this afternoon, as a brief stroll revealed the shiny dishes of Subodh Gupta, pearlescent paints in the Dillon gallery’s ‘ma’ exhibition, glossy bead installations of ‘Hidden Americana,’ and the friendly contours of anthropomorphized Vespa motorbikes created by Patricia Piccinini.

Also on view are the paintings of Tu Hongtao, which depict fantasy women as plastic dolls, and the engaging landscapes of Sven Kroner. See the art weekend photoset on flickr.
