The Super Bowl of Fine Art? perhaps Whitney Biennial if your thinking America’s past time, but globally the Basel Art Fair takes the title. Place your bets and let me know what you think. Tonight I’m planning on seeing Pina in 3-D at BAM. Breath taking is what I hear. Gotta dance!

Nothing like a relaxing 4 days to get back in touch with everyone. Hot off the presses is an novel written by Mike Edison entitled- Dirty!Dirty!Dirty! If you enjoyed his first novel- I have fun everywhere I go, then this should be just has funny and entertaining a read. I can’t wait to get my copy. I’m still plugging away at my artist black comedy screenplay. it’ll be close, but I still hope to finish by the end of this year. Recently I watched a few clips of Bravo’s A work of Art reality show. I’m having a hard time liking it but I don’t hate it. I think there were a few nice pieces made so far, considering the time pressures etc, that they are under. And I do enjoy looking at the works themselves and listening to the critique round table discussions. But what’s with all the car plugs? cars.com AND fiat! come on. That grossed me out. Anyway, Enjoy this time and if you have any funny art world storys to share, please do.

Booo!

halloween is around the corner and full of creative opportunities. last night was the inaugural ALAVA film festival in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. It was interesting to see the amount of diversity and good will shared by all the talented people who participated. I’ve taken some time to create a merch page for my electronic project Spice Factory. If you like to support music , check it out and contribute for some one of a kind apparel. Trick or Treat?

So , I’ve been back from France a few weeks which was fabulous. Didn’t see that much art but hey, I was on vaca. I did get a better sense of French culture and did I mention the awesome food? Many thanks to Hrag at Hyperallergic and Loren for letting me do some interviews on the current state of art in NYC. The more I dig the more I find I need to dig but also, the better the script will be. This weekend is a big studio tour of Greenpoint Brooklyn . Shame I missed the one 2 weeks ago in Bushwick. So If you are around maybe I’ll see you at the after party saturday at The End on Greenpoint av.

new art ideas

admin — Fri, 13 May 2011 01:26:42 +0000

well I’m leaving for France. I plan to visit the paris artist neighborhood Belleville where all the artists live and exhibit their art. I also plan to walk in the foot steps of Cezanne in the south of France, Aix en Provence. Preparing for the trip I came across this very interesting French artist Gilles Tran. He does 3D art and it’s pretty amazing. Click on the image and drag your mouse and you’ll see. Enjoy his website. A bien tot.

who are the greatest unknown artists?

admin — Sat, 23 Apr 2011 18:36:01 +0000

I’m still scratching the research surface for my new script and at the same time aching to paint again every now and then. I’ve been reading short bio s on Mathew Barney, Julian Schnabel and Maurizio Cattelan to get myself ‘current’. Some of the ‘stars’ of the last few decades for sure but it seems anything goes and some things never change. Who do you think this years rising stars are? Will they stand the test of time? Who are the greatest unknown artists out there? If you think you know, please share.
