Buff Monster at Corey Helford Gallery September 5th - September 26th
Posted 9/10/09

I used to have this pink bracelet I ‘borrowed’ from a co-counseler at summer camp about four years ago that I never actually returned.  It was leather, studded with rhinestones and I really liked it until I lost it at a Los Abandoned show. This was back when a bunch of emo bands were getting huge and for about five minutes it was cool for dudes to rock pink stuff. The color pink is a major theme in Buff Monster’s work, serving as a primary emotional impetus in Heavy Metal Ice Cream Smile, hi... [more]

Jo Spence and Terry Dennett, Anne-Marie Kornachuk, Part2ism, Tamara Seabrook at Channel Four Contemporary Art / C4 Gallery July 31st - September 13th
Posted 8/23/09

I was really excited to see PART2ISM'S work after hearing so much about it from England... especially after seeing it in the London Street Art Anthology (check it out on amazon) - This is his (Part2ism) first time here in north america apparently... the other work in the show - while not 'street art' was solid - kind of incredible actually... very different from anything I've ever seen - anywhere... but it somehow works fabulously together. just get up out of your chair and GO SEE THE SHOW!

Kofie'One at 01 Gallery February 28th - March 29th
Posted 3/14/09

From the AMAZING pieces, which were expected of course, to the simplistic gallery space at which it was held, to the generous and humble artist himself, the Conversation with the Artist night at 01 Gallery was fantastic. Kofie's pieces on wood and vinyl were some of his best work I've seen, and displayed beautifully by the sweet and welcoming Curator, Christina Ochoa. Kofie was open, explainative, and seemingly a bit awkward, which made it all the more comfortable. For the hour or so of listening to... [more]
