You showed some of these gorgeous watercolors before, Sam.  I wanted one then, I want one now.  I still can't afford them, or the fantastic video that went with them.  Why do you torture me so?  I'm a good person.  I work hard.  I really do think you should give me one of these because it will make my life so much better.   [more]

All I can say is … WOW!!!  Finally, a painter doing something more cutting edge.  They are big; they are beautiful; impossible to get bored while scanning these works.  And what the heck is going on in the corner? … Looks like a painting blending right into the wall – never seen that before, so in my book - a must see.  She is definitely a true artist and not a one trick pony. Like any master painter, they can really mix it up…and she does a great job in doing so.  If you are in LA... [more]

Group Show at 18th Street Arts Center August 1st - September 25th
Posted 9/8/09

Though of course art has no rules, sometimes it finds itself falling into the terrain of soft sciences like sociology, with which its search for straightforward answers and clean conclusions sidelines certain aspects of art (aesthetics, ambiguity, open-ended inquiry) that, well, makes art art. In the case of Post-American L.A., sociology is used to look at America’s projected shift and decline as seen through Los Angeles, ten years into the future. An intriguing and perhaps even noble venture... [more]

Blowfish Banksy and Shepherd Fairey eat your heart out....

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!

Deathvalleymap Jeff Hassay in Death Valley   Pick-button

Posted 7/26/09

Take a trip to Death Valley in late summer or early fall. It’s only about four or so hours driving from Los Angeles.  You can see the salt flats, Zabriskie Point, the sand dunes, Artist’s Palette, and the mysterious Devil’s Racetrack. All striking and each benefiting from the blushing glow of morning or evening light. The dunes are best. You can see all the usual tour book attractions, but you can’t see Jeff Hassay’s See Through Mountain, 2009. Even though it’s there. Follow these directions and ma... [more]

Symmetry Feeding the Spirit Monkey

Tales of the Flesh are tales about the spirit and flesh.  Does an unrequited love of the spirit live in the hearts of these five artists?  Whether it does or not, mutiny is not an option.  They're in it for the long haul.  Their personal battles pulsate in their work.Liz Young's family portraits are a host of small scale paintings of her family and herself at various ages.  The portraits are exhibited in the gallery the way they might be found in her grandmother's living room.  The wonderment...
