First seen in 2004, the Grand Central Art Center is reviving the hit exhibition “100 Artists See Satan”, now available in paperback. This years show features 100 of the most talented contemporary artists giving their interpretation of the devil, and as opposed to the first version of the show, this one will be a fundraiser with “All proceeds will benefit future GCAC programs and exhibitions”. The exhibition will run from June 26th to August 15th, so if you are around the Santa Ana area make sure to stop by. Just a few of the artists that will be participating in this show are: Peter Adamyan, Ron English, Robert Williams, Tara McPherson, Jeff McMillan, Ana Bagayan, Scott G Brooks, Luke Chueh, Dalek, Coop, Korin Faught, Mercedes Helnwein, Camille Rose Garcia, Alex Grey, Chris Mars, Scott Musgrove, Mark Ryden, Mike Shine, Christopher Ulrich, Eric White, Laurie Lipton and many more.

A majority of the work is pretty amazing. I’m not the biggest fan of Gary Baseman’s work but I really like the drawing he submitted. Eric White’s painting “Nope”, freaks me right out. There is also a good amount of prints we have seen before, but its nice that these artists submitted work to a good cause. Check out the preview images here, and then head on over and see the full show.

This past Saturday, December 12th at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City the “Multi-Plane” group show opened up. For the past few weeks I have been seeing some previews of some of the pieces in the show, one of the great reasons to check out artists blogs now and again. The idea of the show is that “Each of these paintings is an original work created on two layers of glass and a masonite panel background, emulating the multi-plane process developed by animators in the 1930’s to create depth in animated features. Each surface is separated by 3/8 of an inch and the entire painting is housed in a custom-made frame.”

Back in August 2009, I posted a print from Ana Bagayan that would help with the Lunch Bunch Project she is a part of. Every week Ana and a friend get together and “create home-made meal packages to pass out to the homeless of Los Angeles, CA.” And every week they run out of money as well. I just heard this past week that Ana and cohort Mere are organizing a print auction. Donated prints will be sold and go towards helping out the Lunch Bunch Project. This is a great idea, and gives people an opportunity to be a part of such an amazing thing. I’m sure we all have some prints that are just sitting there, so why not get in touch with Ana and turn those prints into food. Contact Ana here: anabagayan@gmail.com

If you don’t have any prints to donate, there are still some copies of the “Prey” print in her shop. 100% of the proceeds from this print goes to the Lunch Bunch. The print is only
$25 + $5 shipping, and believe me they look amazing in person. A small price to pay for a great piece of art, and the ability to help those in need.
