I’m cooking over at Angels Gate, and cross posting, for sharing’s sake. Right now feels like the calm before the storm. That is, the calm before the end of the week, when everything in both galleries has to be just right, and we’re all ready to go for Open Studios. Here’s a little of [...] I’m cross-posting from the AGCC blog, since some may enjoy my trip to Union Ice, and also to pimp the upcoming Fluids happening at Angels Gate. On Thursday, the various coordinators making the multi-venue, re-creation of Allan Kaprow’s Fluids possible met at the Union Ice Company warehouse in Van Nuys to go over [...] The LA Times finally covers the energy exploration near Spiral Jetty issue. No real news in the article, other than some quotes from Keith C. Hill, president of Pearl Exploration and Production promising that the project can be done in a low impact way.

We made another dozen kernels today, nine yellow ones, and three in mixed colours. The process is getting pretty polished, and we’re just knocking the suckers out without any complications or shenanigans at all. Above – Eric with my favourite [...] I was in between meetings yesterday, downtown, and managed to sneak into Sam Lee Gallery to check out the Macha Suzuki show. Also in the back, I got a peek at Christine Nguyen’s work in the project space. There are more photos on the gallery’s site, too. It’s a beautiful body of work, go [...] I’m too damn busy getting ready for Open Studios at Angels Gate (April 27, be there or be square!), including the prep for Fluids (photos from yesterday’s awesome trip to Union Ice coming ASAP), so, again, I got almost no idea what’s going on in LA this weekend. I do know that Matthew Thomas [...] I read about this the other day in the Times, that Koons’ Tulips were getting so scuffed and damaged by visitors that they had to go home to the Broad-cave. And Charles Ray’s Firetruck apparently just can’t take the heat of being on public display. I’m not really sad to see the Koons [...] Just woke up to do some early paperwork and saw this item by Tyler Green on the RSS. Apparently the Prado is opening the exhibition, Goya In Times Of War, and have pulled El Coloso from the exhibition, claiming that “doubts over the attribution of El Coloso are widely accepted by the museum’s [...] It’s very, very difficult for me to believe that this is for real. The seller has no ratings, there are no bids, and the Q & A on the site seems flip. There’s a Chicago Tribune article about the eBay auction, but it’s incredibly short on details. I can’t begin to say how [...] I’m at the Tallahasse airport (which has free power and free WiFi!), and I’m one happy Californian, topping off a too short trip with a much deserved and lusted after meal at the roadside shrine of my pagan faith, a Waffle House.
