Jeremy Forson has added some new prints to his Etsy shop. A few of these new prints are from Jeremy’s “Lost Fight” solo show that opened in September @ Edo Gallery in San Francisco (previewed here). I’m glad he decided to make some prints from some of the new work that he has been creating, especially “Kissy Face” (shown first), it’s such an amazing painting. The latest prints are all 8.5″ x 11″, signed and numbered in editions of 10 for $15 a pop.

Kyle Crawford, the man behind Electric Zombie, has added some new screenprints to the online shop. “Reaper”, “Badge”, “Manhattan” & “Fang Face” are all 18″ x 24″, shipped in a tube and $25 a pop, or you can get all four of them for $80. I really dig the Fang Face and Manhattan print, that has to be one of the cooler “Friday the 13th” inspired prints I have seen so far. Thanks to omgposters.com for the heads up on these.

Copro Gallery has two new prints from Stella Im Hultberg. “Chie” and “Chandra” are based on paintings from her latest solo show “Penumbra” that opened at Copro Gallery last November 7th. Each print is 8″ x 10″ with an 65.” x 8.5″ image size, signed and numbered in an edition of 30 for $120. The great thing is that the prints are sold as a set.

I’m a little late on posting this one, and it’s from one of my favorite artists as well. This last October 28th at the 323 East Gallery in Michigan, Glenn Barr had some prints and originals up for viewing. All of the work that is in the show is now online to view; stationary, vinyl toys, prints, originals and an amazing bronze sculpture (shown) are all up for grabs. If your as big of a fan of Glenn’s work as I am, make sure you head on over and take a look.
Over the weekend Roq La Rue opened “Requiarium” with new art from Brian Despain and “Saints and Angels” by John Brophy. This is one of those shows that makes me wish I either lived closer to the gallery, or was able to take a quick trip there. Both artists are exceptionally talented, Brian Despain’s robots are uniquely his own and John Brophy’s portraits and the Flemish style method to his paintings had me hooked from the start.
Ever since I first saw the “Madonna and Horsefly” print at the gallery I have been a big fan of John’s work. His art is a perfect blend of classical and surreal, these new paintings are just another example of why he is an artist to keep a close eye on. It’s hard to pick which one out of the amazing lineup of paintings is my favorite, but “Nessarose” (which happens to be the name of the woman who becomes the wicked witch of the east in Wicked) is the painting that mesmerizes me to the most.
Roq La Rue keep son churning out some of the best shows you can imagine, make sure you stop by the site to see this months offerings. Brian Despain & John Brophy @ Roq La Rue
A while back I posted about the idea of adding criticism as a feature to the site. The idea was equally met with praise and encouragement as well as some pretty nasty e-mails. As I stated before, there is some really exciting work being created right now and there is no doubt that this art needs to be talked about and shared. I have heard from many that inner criticism, along with scholarly writing that seems to be lacking in the current art scene, is what will draw outside interest even more. While I agree with this, formal criticism will not be a feature of this site.

It’s technological advances like this that make me excited to see what the future of art will be like. Tony Quan aka Tempt is a graffiti artist, and now due to being paralyzed from Lou Gehrig’s disease he can no longer create art the way he used to. This is where eyewriter comes in. With a computer, the open source software and and eye tracking system people like Tony can get back to create art again.
This is such a great idea. It shows how important art is, not only for the people who create it, but for all of us. Take a look at the video, get your spirits lifted and then make sure you head over to eyewriters website and have a look around. I can’t wait to see where this technology goes.
