Yesterday was lots of string and sewing. Ruth Dennis also worked the button press for a few hours (pictured above). Whenever I think of merchandising in art, all I can think about is Mel Brooks as Yogurt in Spaceballs saying “Merchandising! Where the real money from the movie is made!” Lotta work to [...] I apologise if all of the © Murakami news is wearing you down. But this is too good to pass up. That little doodad above (photo by Michele Hubacek) is the Norton Family Christmas Project, 2000, which I’ve lusted after for a long, long time. Every year since 1998 the Peter Norton Family [...] Sunday. The long day. But it’s all worth it when your name is up in lights. Yesterday was the day that we had to begin the reconstruction of the overhead string grid that the Cry Me A River piece suspends from. It’s not a difficult thing to do, but it is a tedious [...] One of the great things about having a blog is that when you’re out and about in public and something relevant to your blog is frustrating, demeaning, insulting, etc…, you can say “Well I’m going to go home and write about this on my blog!” Maybe someone will hear my tiny little cry of [...] I was back at ECC yesterday, and put in some time working on Edith’s (seen above, sawing out circles from particle board) installation. Despite the tremendous amount of physical labor involved, things are moving on really smoothly. Here come the pics, and the rest are in the Flickr Set. Above – Hankies [...] Because I like food more than anything else, because I like looking at pictures of food, I’m sharing some of what I’ve been eating this week. This is the diet that keeps me svelte and sane. Or it’s the diet that’s keeping me fat and slowly driving me mad, I can’t remember. Above [...] We got off to a solid start on the first day of installation for Salty: Three Tales of Sorrow at El Camino yesterday. A seemingly staggering amount of repetitive tasks are associated with this show, and the full El Camino Art Gallery staff was out in force to perform them, from Gallery Director [...] I’m cross-posting this from the AGCC blog – I’m really, really pleased to be showing both Benicia Gantner and Kim Schoenstadt. It’s gonna be a great show, that I’m installing at the same time that I’m installing Edith’s show. $20 bucks says I relapse into my espresso habit before the end of next week. [...] Souris, A.K.A. Hustler of Culture has a 97 photo Flickr Set from the Giant Robot Biennale at the Japanese American National Museum, and a quick post relating an interesting conversation with can controller David Choe. Check it out. Also, got confirmation from Eric Nakamura that this is the first biennale in a series, so [...] I’ve been reading Giant Robot since the first issue, back when it was a black and white, photocopied zine. They’ve come a long, long way, baby. The GR boys now operate their own little media empire. I know that their shows have gotten some criticism, since their magazine does these softball interviews with their [...] |
