Up in the members section, I have finally added my portfolio… so if you wanna see what I’ve been up to, there it is.
Gotta make a few changes to the Projects section this week too – and make a separate reviews section, so come back and see if I can actually accomplish that this week.
Coming up this week:
Rise Industries will be screening the video “Traveling to Infinity” as a part of the group show “Skin” put together by I/O at the Quotidian Gallery in San Francisco.
In “Traveling to Infinity”, the viewer glides along a picturesque California highway – caught in a repeating moment of double vision. In the center of the frame the highly polished mirrored surface of a tanker truck reflects the highway peeling back behind the traveler, obscuring the view ahead of the road inexorably scrolling towards them. This position, between projected and enveloping scenes, between gleaming surface and unfolding space, between the recent past and the fleeting future, establishes certainty in the uncertain and stakes out the in-between state – hanging on to it even as the bouncing movement of the camera threatens to break the moment.
The gallery is located in Suite 252 of the Phellan Building on the corner of Market and O’Farrell Streets in downtown San Francisco, near the Powel Street BART/MUNI station. It is open from 10:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and on Saturday from 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
A reception will be held on Thursday the 22nd (8 or 9ish to 11pm, contact gallery for more info) with video projected on the glazed exterior wall of the gallery – visible from both inside and from the street below.
Closer to home, Rise Industries will be showing two works at “Pacifically Designed” opening at Gallery 825 on Friday the 23rd (6 to 9pm). A Rise Industries Art Product, “Pace Building, Windows 2” will be shown, as well as a work from member Michele Jaquis. Michele’s piece, “Excerpt from Unimaginable” is an artifact from a larger installation which is still in progress.
Gallery 825 is at 825 La Cienega, south of Santa Monica Blvd.

If you live in LA, you have probably seen Tofer’s work around.. posters or paintings scattered about the city – or even in a gallery or at Otis College of Art. If you don’t live in LA, you might have seen his work anyway – if this is not the case, now you can check it out. here. Thanks to AK for making it known he has a website now.

Been taking a break from the worlds of art and architecture for a bit… and rediscovering the beach instead. Got some photos from the shows mentioned below to post this week. Check back and maybe they will magically appear.
Go read something at McSweeney’s instead today. Or if you don’t like to read, there’s always this.
Events this weekend:
Oksana Badrak, an illustrator and painter, is having a show of her work in echo park on Saturday, July 13. The show is at 1553 echo park avenue, and the reception will be from 7-10:30. Ask her about her hamsters.
Also Saturday, four shows open at Gallery 825. “Location, Location, Location” a group show – work by Gary Wood – “Scariest Vacation on this World”, by Sinead Finnerty and Jason Pyne and a Quonset Hut Installation by Katie Bowen. See LAAA website for directions etc. Its at 825 La Cienega.
Finally, work your way over to the westside for a party/gallery/performance event at THE LATCH. Last time was wild, insane, fun and ridiculous. Expect nothing less. It is this saturday, 7ish? 8ish? to later. Crocket the Iron Monger and friends will be performing (loosly) at 10 or so. The Latch is at 5367 W. Washington Blvd in LA/Culver City. Its the north-east corner of the Hauser-Wasington intersection, park on a street and go through the metal gate to where the noise is.
You might want to check out S.E. Barnet’s web site – she is an LA based artist who works in video, performance, and photo – and perhaps other media. Her work is showing right now at Raid Projects (in the Brewery Arts Complex) and as part of Movement on the Key Club’s video screen. Lots of good stuff on her site.
