Since its notional founding in the mid-19th century by philanthropist Merton Lyman Moss, MOSS BUREAU has refined the philosophical, creative, cultural and commercial fundaments governing the international MOSS brand. During its most recent incarnation, as retail gallery for eighteen years in Soho, you will have become accustomed to a MOSS confined and defined by a white-walled gallery setting. But now those walls are gone, and we have broken free, running wild across New York and often the rest of the world. MOSS is receding, as the time for storefront retail slowly passes, just as MOSS BUREAU re-emerges, as consultant, curator, advisor, lecturer and liaison between artist and consumer. Follow along on tumblr to see just what we're capable of.

Cathy McClure’s Mickey Hardwired is an enigmatic series of animatronic Mickeys that have been rewired to a single control button. Beginning in synchronous motion, as the drama unfolds the functional forms of these stuffed animal innards quickly falter and disent spreads as they whirr, click and ratchet further and further out of sync. As we watch the army of self-choreographed cluster and disperse, we begin to attribute individual personalities and relationships into these identical forms.
