  • Preview: Varnish Fine Art Relaunch Part I

    Varnish Fine Art in San Francisco was forced to leave their previous location, due to some construction projects going on at the time. It was one of my favorite galleries to visit, as the space was not only beautiful but they consistently showed amazing art. It was at Varnish that I saw works by Jennybird Alcantra, Chris Mars, Michael Page, and Ron English for the first time. Well they have a new location, very close to the old one, and are having their official relaunch exhbition opening this Saturday Night, September 24th. This show will feature works from 21 artists that are represented by Varnish such as Chris Mars, Robert Williams, Jennybird Alcantra, Laurie Lipton, Isabel Samaras, Scott Musgrove, Annie Owens, Craig LaRotonda , Nathan Spoor, Kevin Peterson, Beth Bojarski, Edith Lebeau (featured), Aunia Kahn, Ciou, Robert Bowen, and more. The reception goes from 4 – 8 PM, and the show will run up until November 5th.

  • Chet Zar’s “Conjoined” @ Copro Gallery

    This past Saturday, January 22nd, the Copro Gallery opened a very exciting show curated by Chet Zar. “Conjoined” is a group show in which the participating artists created works that are 3d in design. Very few shows in this art scene contain 3d works, and a whole show dedicated to them was well overdue. Thanks to Chet for curating such an amazing, and needed exhibition. Some of the participating artists include: Adam Jones, Kris Kuksi, Annie Owens, Attaboy, Kathie Olivas, Brandt Peters, Dave Pressler, Colin Christian, Charles Krafft, Jon Beinart, Neil Winn, Scott Radke, Chantal Menard, Bill Basso, Paul Chatem, Zombienose, Jordu Schell, Meats Meier, Craig Skibs Barker, Scott Hove, Craig LaRotonda, Chris Conte and many more. The gallery is still working on getting the entire show online, but there is quite a lot of work to be seen. I was happy to see some art submitted by Wayne Coyne (Flaming Lips), and Adam Jones (Tool).

  • Paul Gerrard and Craig LaRotonda @ Last Rites Gallery

    This past Saturday, December 5th the Last Rites Gallery in New York opened two new shows: “From the Ashes of Angels” by Craig LaRotonda and “Skins from the Shadow Circle” by Paul Gerrard. I really like the new work from Paul Gerrard, he has a killer style and shows that digital art can be just as fascinating as traditional. The show will be up until December 27th, if you can make it to the gallery make sure you check out the site for the full preview.
