Jonathan and I went to the launch party for Powerhouse Books' "Disco Years" by Ron Galella. It was in a warehouse in DUMBO, which was actually a really cool space!
The holiday windows I have been waiting to see have finally been unveiled- The Barney's windows, done by Simon Doonan and his staff of creative geniuses. Here are some photos I have taken of them. Happy Thanksgiving!
Alan and I went to the Hello, Nurse! party at the 3rd Ward space in Brooklyn last night. What an event! There were dj's set up in three different rooms, the music was amazing in all three, and the people were great as well! Tim Sweeney did an amazing job as always, and is such a nice guy!
While Alan and I were heading out, we finally got a chance to hear Luke Vibert play, the DJ we were there to see really. He was actually playing songs that were not of his usual style, but he was still great, and had a wonderful crowd dancing away to his tunes! Here are some photos of then night!
There is a boutique in Paris that I have been dreaming of going into for a while now. It is called Madame Andre, owned by Chloe, the wife of the graffiti artist, Monsieur Andre. Here is a photo of her store, and a photo of his art.
For some laughter, check out Teen Girl Squad. Here is a screen shot of the newest episode. For all other episodes (including my favorites episodes 3, 4, and 5), check it out here: http://www.homestarrunner.com/tgsmenu.html
I love Genevieve Gauckler's art. She is by far the coolest artist I have seen in a long time. She makes really cute characters, great collages, and visually stimulating art. Here is her site: http://www.g2works.com/homepage.html, and here are some examples of her artwork! Way to go Genevieve!
Leo Villareal and Dan Flavin are neon/flourescent geniuses. I prefer Leo Villarel's light sculptures over Dan Flavin's, because they seem to be more technologically advanced and designed more, but Flavin's are equally important in modern art, I believe. Here are some examples of both artists work with light. Leo Villareal's happen to be shades of pink, while Dan Flavin's are the photos with white flourescents.
