Hi All,
Next solo show is opening Jan 25, 2013 @ The Invisible Hand in Lawrence, KS. The gallery space looks great and I will be there for hugs and high-fives.
Cheers
Art for Beer? Updates forthcoming …
So a few months back I helped one Max Spang set up a trade for some rare and hard-to-find beers from The Bruery. I am not unfamiliar with doing art trades and print exchanges, so this was something not to pass up. The Bruery makes excellent, sophisticated beers… Beer not for the timid. Max filmed and edited this video documenting the process:
Also; some final images of my Kala work should be up soon — I am still getting everything mounted and signed… I am also working on some prints for the upcoming Mid America Print Council Conference in Missouri (two separate portfolios), so needless to say, the studio is busy.
If you’re in Iowa, I have a solo exhibition of prints up at Southeastern Community College in W. Burlington, Iowa. Also I have some paintings at the Great Frame Up in Longmont, CO. Daytonians will happy to know I am showing the International Print Exchange (A Funky Space Reincarnation) at Ohio Gold on Sept 1st.
Kala / Kickstarter
From mid June to mid July I will be an artist in residence at the Kala Institute of Art in Berkeley, CA.
The plan is to make quite a few editions of lithographs and screenprints incorporating digital printing. For those feeling generous (or those wanting to pick up some artwork on the cheap) please visit my Kickstarter campaign page. The project is titled “Reclaimed Verses (Traveler),” and will be in direct response to the experience of traveling and making work in a new environment.
Check it out.
Also; for those in the Dayton area, stop by Ghostlight Coffee and take a look at “Basement Occupation,” a casual exhibition of works on paper by yours truly.
Current/Upcoming Shows
I currently have a show, “Reclaimed Verse,” viewable online at No Future Projects. No Future’s goal is “simply to showcase good work by good people. NFP resides in an online context, with periodic ventures into the real world.” It is a curatorial/exhibition project of Jeffrey Cortland Jones
“Reclaimed Verses,” a physical exhibition of this series of work will be on view at Edison College, in Piqua, Ohio April 1st through 29th.
“Currents” Exhibition @ UDayton
I have a new piece, Reclaimed Verse (12), sitting in good company at the Department of Visual Arts, UDayton Faculty show “Currents.”
Personal highlights of the exhibition for me are Jeffrey Jones’s group of thoughtful, meditative paintings on paper and Ryan Adrick’s most recent and mysterious, hybrid photograph sculpture.
The show runs through February 10th, 2nd floor (get a pass from the security desk) of the CPC in Dayton.
“Untitled Highways” Documentation
Here are some quick shots of the installation of 6 works which comprises “Untitled Highways”, a recent exhibition outside of Gallery 249 at The University of Dayton. This is my end of some collaborative work done with Jon Swindler over summer. All works are digital and traditional prints, collaged and cut, fixed to rag paper with duramount adhesive film. The QR takes viewers to an accompanying sound file made for the exhibition.
