The DvA Gallery will be having a massive group show, Picks of the Harvest. Curated by Andrew Hosner of the Thinkspace Gallery. The reception is on November 3rd from 6-10.
The show has a great list of artists, Attaboy, Marion Bolognesi, Matt Dangler, Joshua Clay, Camilla D. Errico, Ekundayo, Sarah Joncas, Angie Mason, Mike Maxwell, Brandi Milne, Lesley Reppeteaux, Kelly Vivanco, and one of my new favorite artists The Chung. Dave Chung is a great artist, and his humor and imagination make his work so easy to become a fan of.

If your in the Phoenix, AZ area you might want to head on over to the Perihelion Arts gallery and check out the opening of Nathan Spoor’s solo show, The Shadow Banquet.
The show is already online for your viewing, and buying pleasure. There are some really cool pieces in there, I love the one called “Homecoming” (shown). It looks like a squid to me, and I like squids.
I like the change in seeing such dark works, nice black backgrounds. It looks quite striking really.

Tonight at the Gallery 1988 in SF, the Paper Pushers show opens. It’s a huge show featuring all works that are on paper, so you will see not only drawings, but paintings as well.
The list of artists is huge. Gallery 1988 seriously puts on some great shows, between Paper Pushers, I am 8 Bit, Crazy 4 Cult and the upcoming Bitters and Sweets, I’ll be writing about their shows a lot.
I tried to make it to the show, but my car did not allow me to. Looks like it’s time to trade that ol hooptie in for another. So, like me a preview of the show may be the best.
So watch the Gallery 1988 page for more. And take a look at the preview page:

From October 13 – December 1, 2007, at the Distinction Gallery in Escondido, CA, a group show called “If Opened Alarm Will Sound” will start. This show will feature works by Ekundayo, Paul Torres & Shay.
Each one of these artists has an amazing style, and is very skilled. It would be a great show to see in person. If anyone happens to get any pics of the show, please send them my way.

“PoppyCock”, Ben Templesmith’s solo art show will open tonight at the Secret Headquarters in L.A.
There will be artwork from his WormWood and 30 days of night comics, as well as other unseen art. Exclusive prints and merchandise, as well as his new sketchbook “PoppyCock” will be released, the books will also be signed.
If you happen to go to the show “BUY ME A SKETCHBOOK!”, I will pay you back. The sketchbooks will only be available from the show for the time being, and alas I won’t be there to grab one. Ben Templesmith will be there though, so you get to meet him.

Arabella Proffer’s “Private Empire: The National Portrait Gallery of Kessa” opens at Asterisk Gallery October 12th, 2007 – November 2nd, 2007
Opening Reception: Friday, October 12th from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m.
Asterisk Gallery 2393 Professor Ave. Cleveland, Ohio. 44113
Proffer has created a fictional National Portrait Gallery, whose works are a juxtaposition of modernity with aristocratic tradition. Her subjects sport twenty-first century punk and gothic styles as part of their formalwear, but without the mohawks and piercings, each portrait resembles typical late Renaissance and Stuart portraits. Proffer notes: “this series centers around balance of counter-culture and tradition; how punk or gothic styles might be adopted by aristocrats and socialites for serious portraits left as a reminder of their legacy. What was once considered rebellious has now become widely accepted. Traditionally, each portrait preserves what may later be a historical moment. In the case of this series however, the “historical” moments are of my own imagination”
As complements to the portraits, Proffer has created genealogies, short biographies, country maps as well as a site-specific installation. Themes of decadence, beauty, and entitlement play throughout the series.
