Openings: Blaine Fontana – “The Golden Record” @ Lebasse Projects

Posted by Khoi, April 28, 2010

In what sounds like an eternity in the fast-moving and evolving world of contemporary art, Blaine Fontana has just opened his first gallery exhibition in 3 years. He returns with a tightly constructed, cohesive body of work with a unified theme. The solo exhibition at LeBasse Projects in Culver City features 13 paintings, using acrylic and almost entirely on board, all intricately and exquisitely rendered by the Otis graduate. More, including images of the entire show, after the jump…

Setup / Preview: Faile Bast Deluxx Fluxx Arcade – NYC edition

Posted by juggernut3, April 28, 2010

Some of you may have heard rumblings about an upcoming Faile x Bast show coming to NYC. We can finally confirm that it’s true. Even better is that it’s a pop up show in the Lower East Side (LES) of the Big Apple. Faile and Bast’s recent arcade show at London’s Lazarides (Rathbone Place) was so unique and popular that it got many US fans in a state of envy. Originally conceived as a one-off show, Faile and Bast decided to create a brand new […]

Openings: Herbert Baglione – “Last Chance for a Slow Dance” @ Iguapop Gallery

Posted by sleepboy, April 27, 2010

Herbert Baglione’s solo at the Iguapop Gallery in Spain opened last weekend with a series of new paintings, wall murals, and installations. We heard much from one of our favorite Brazilian artists since his show in SF, but it look as though “Last Chance for a Slow Dance” is another beautiful body of work with a cooler and more muted pallette. More images after the jump…

Openings: “We Ride at Night” @ Gallery Heist

Posted by Ken, April 25, 2010

Following the dual shows at White Walls and Shooting Gallery earlier this month, we took a short trip down the street to Gallery Heist, the newest art offering in San Francisco’s Tenderloin neighborhood. Co-curated by Jason Vivona (studio visit), “We Ride at Night” is a group of talented artists, skaters, bike riders, punks, musicians and all around awesome folks who have banded together to put on shows and release limited edition items throughout the greater Bay Area. Consisting of a healthy blend of media, WRaN’s […]

Streets: Banksy in San Francisco (Part III)

Posted by juggernut3, April 25, 2010

Sir Banksy is on a tear in SF as we round up 6 different spots which he banged out in the past few days. As we see two which we already covered (Part I & Part II), what’s cool is our friends from Warholian did a little hometown research and plotted the exact addresses of each piece. So if you’re lucky enough to be near the Bay area, you should get your GPS out and do a little urban sight seeing. (While they lasts…) See pics of each one […]

Featuring Mark Warren Jacques (pictured above), Henry Gunderson (interviewed), Akira Beard, Robert Burden, and Cheryl Molnar. New Directions is a look at several distinctly different and unique styles each exploring their own directions. Full photo set after the jump.

Openings: David Choe – “Nothing to Declare” @ LAzarides Beverly Hills

Posted by juggernut3, April 24, 2010

Sometimes, we get spoiled at AM with behind the scenes studio visits where we see much of the art work before show openings, but in this case, our visit to David Choe’s (featured) studio definitely did not spoil our appetite for his latest series of works which were revealed at a private opening last night. Similar to the NY Outsiders show, the Beverly Hills-located LAzarides 90210 gallery’s production and lighting were peerless, accentuating and elevating Mr. Choe’s entire show, “Nothing to Declare”, to a whole […]
