The “Toys!” show that is going on at the Gallery 1988 in LA is now online for your viewing pleasure. All art inspired by the toys of our youth, if your that old, and also some customs celebrating Hot Wheels 40th.
Some really great art is in this show. I’m particularly fond of Camilla D. Errico’s paintings and those by Scott Scheidly, Johnny Crap, Davey Wong, Casey Weldon and of course those artists that were shown on the Creep Machine at one point such as Jim Harker, Allison Torneros, Lindsay Carr, Mark Brown & Shannon Bonatakis.
It’s a great show that brings up a lot of memories. I really hope they make a print of the Anthony Clarkson “Playtime’s Over” painting (shown). That “My Pet Monster” looks like he’s ready to bring the pain.

“Color Blind” is a group show that is going on at the Project Gallery in LA. The show ends April 12th,
but you can head over right now and see or purchase some really great art.
The show features work mainly by Ken Garduno & Tom Haubrick. Both artists have amazing styles, and fit perfectly together in a show. There is also a few pieces shown by Nate Frizzel, Randy Noborikawa, Yoskay Yamamoto, Tessar Lo, Tanner Goldbeck, Chuck BB, Nick Yarger, Yuat Onoda & Scott Belcastro. For the most part all of the work is monocromatic, but a few pieces have color thrown in. It’s really striking when you do see it as well, such as the piece from Ken Garduno “Birth of Color” (shown).
To check out the show head on over to: Project Gallery LA

The group show “A Place Called Lovely” at Gallery 1988 in San Francisco is now up. The show features work by Camilla d’Errico, Caia Koopman, AmY Sol, Lilly Piri & Krista Huot. The more I see of Camilla d’Errico’s work the more I love it, she really does have an exciting style. This is a great show and I almost would have missed seeing online if I didn’t read about the show in Monica Choy’s blog. She was the curator at the Compound Gallery, and is now back in SF getting ready to bring us some great shows.
The next show is a longer one that is being shown at the Varnish Art Gallery in SF. The show runs from January 15th to March 1st, so you have some time to see it. The show features work by Kenny Mencher (shown). His paintings are all in this realist style, each one showing you a scene that you have to figure out. I can’t wait to see these in person. view the work here.

Some really great shows are now online for your viewing pleasure. All shows that are viewable online will go in this new section.
First is Jonathan Weiner’s solo show at the Jonathan Levine Gallery. He is such an amazing painter and his new work is spectacular. All of the works are also massive in size. The one shown is 48″ x 36″. You can also check out a duo show of Esao Andrews and Xiaoqing Ding. I really dig the work of Esao, the contrast and colors are very amazing.
Then at the Copro Nason gallery you can check out Joey Remmers. He was just featured in the new art magazine “Stretching Canvas” that is put out by the same folks that give us International Tattoo Art magazine. It’s an excellent new mag so be sure to pick one up. You can see a taste of Remmers work in the mag and some of the same works at the gallery.
At Gallery 1988 in L.A, the Stan Lee tribute show is up as well. The show features some really great work. Much like the Crazy4Cult and I am 8 Bit shows that 1988 puts on, this one is also filled with a huge variety of art coming from all sorts of artists. My favorite piece of this show has to be the Craola piece.
Finally my favorite show of the bunch is the solo show of Ben Tour. This show is at the Fifty24 Gallery in San Francisco. I was able to check out the show in person and am now even more hooked on his work. The pictures of the work on the site are great, but nothing compared to seeing the art in person. His work is so intense and so detailed that I was shocked. If you love energetic, textural work than look no further than this.
