Concept store and avant-garde label, Triple-Major, recently presented the solo exhibition of Woog in their store in Beijing. Titled “DI DAH DIT DI DI DAH,” Shanghai based artist Woog remixes UK based artist Stephen Smith’s “More with Less”. Through digital prints and videos, Woog explores and captures the displacement of medium, images, language, sound and as a result creating a completely new vernacular. 
Using prints from Woog, Triple-Major also launched the Woog x Triple-Major Digital Print Series in T-shirts and bags. If you are interested in ordering one of the t-shrits, simply email triplemajorinfo@gmail.com or visit their facebook page. They are $55 USD or up each.
At the exhibition last night, Triple-Major also took a few snap shots of their guests:

LAXART and Umami Burger Film Nite: Piero Golia's Killer Shrimp
(A monthly collaboration through summer 2011)
Tuesday, May 24th 8 pm
Synopsis
Pool side at a ranch style house in the canyons of Los Angeles two film-makers and their crew are filming a documentary about a young director. An interesting exploration into the ambitions and expectations of a rising star. Going back and forth in between different realities and possible futures, the arrival of a peculiar food delivery will open their experience to an alternative world populated with hallucinations. This sets the stage for the mother of all gorefests, as the two directors and their crew end up as characters in the eternal battle against evil creatures.
Director's comment
In Killer Shrimps the boundaries between reality and fiction are pushed so far they almost disappear, the real becomes unreal and the fictive becomes plausibly authentic. Concerning the proposition of a new technique of filmmaking: instead of the traditional reproduction of reality with the use of convincing sets or a lifelike shooting style, we decided to execute this movie by forcing reality to become fiction, by pushing the actual to become similar to what ought to be considered artificial. All the usual categories of realism, time and space, get lost in the name of a bigger general category, ìn the unreal. The actual film will be a sort of behind-the-scenes view of a documentary that was never executed. Going back and forth in time, the usual linearity of this dimension becomes elliptical to the point that it almost disappears or becomes unrecognizable. This creates different certainties and a variety of possible futures, until expectations and fears appear as something physical, opening up the possibility of experiencing an alternate world populated with zombies.

Feb 4 2012 07:00PM Their upcoming show, “Do Not Remove,” will open on the evening of Saturday, February 4th, in conjunction with the White Iris Records Music Series. The opening night of “Do Not Remove” will include a special guest performance by a local Los Angeles based band and DJ set by Sean Bowie of Teams. CRYBABY Presents’ third show, “Do Not Remove” (February 4th- March 29th, 2012) will debut an exhibition featuring work by CRYBABY founders Dakota Solt and Lisa Ziven. Together the girls push the fine art element of a commercial object through processing and reinventing unconventional subject matters into salable and usable pieces of art. In “Do Not Remove” Dakota Solt’s prints of digital collages play with the re-appropriation of imagery and slogans by altering the physical nature of an object, while Lisa Ziven’s selection of sculptural pillows and soft goods continue this conversation as three-dimensional representations of Solt’s prints. “Do Not Remove” will also include a curated installation of home products by Molla Space and The Evolution Store, accessories by Surface to Air, Minimarket, Illesteva, Hansel from Basel and Baggu, as well as jewelry by Upper Metal Class and Etten Eller. The installation will also include CRYBABY Presents original clothing designs and accessories, BLK DNM, Samantha Pleet and Something Else. In addition to the pop-up store, CRYBABY will host a White Iris Records music series starting on the opening night, February 4th with February 18th, and March 3rd concerts to follow. The series will include performances by local bands, a special DJ set, drinks, and late night shopping. CRYBABY Presents will also be featuring background studio visits with the bands on their site at www.crybabypresents.com. CRYBABY Presents is a revolving concept shop that will continue to pop up in different spaces. Their first shop on La Brea Ave. featured two art and design installations entitled “Holy Smoke” (October 15th-December 1st) and “TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE” (December 10th-January 26th). Their current space will be at Space 15Twenty for the months of February and March.
