Deitch of the Day

The artblog world is in a Deitch tizzy, the uncertainty of the moment blowing the speculation index through the roof.  Fun to read, but ultimately, unless MOCA pulls a giant “just kidding!”, we’ll all just have to sit on our hands and see how this whole thing turns out.  Maybe it’s because the [...]

Hipster Scene In Seoul

They’re officially everywhere.  Not that it came as a surprise, but it was kind of a familiar and homey to discover a hipster scene in Seoul.  Not that there were fixes piled outside or anyone wearing a keffiah, but there was, as the photo above indicates, beer in cans, a sure sign of [...]

Melting Point/Ragnarok Supply Artist Talk on Tuesday, December 8

I’m a night’s sleep and a few hours away from shipping out from what has been an incredibly busy, but far too short trip to Seoul.  I leave tomorrow morning which is the 8th here, to arrive via the miracle of the International Date Line back in LA on that same 8th, bright and [...]

Do The Weekend, Gallery Season Kickoff Edition

It’s that time again, when every gallery opening is happening on the same damn night, and you either hop or camp out.  Be prepared to fight traffic and possibly over-schmooze (while maybe seeing some art).
