We are considering a work by Ed Moses. One of our art consultants brought to our attention that the last several pieces we have bought are from artist all well into their 80's. We were asked if we are hedging our purchases. Big Grin

Seen lots of Moses' work around LA. He's a lesser known LA hero. Of course if I had a brain I would have bought something when we first enjoyed him about 20 years ago.


A L.A. artist indeed.

He has a solo exhibit coming to Santa Fe soon. ( Charlotte Jackson)

Wonderful news, fcs. What artist are you exhibiting? I'm trying to work in a trip in December ( Florida) to hook up with a friend. Hmmm... Smile


W + A, showing a wide range of work, mostly from lowbrow/Juxtapoz magazine genre.
Michael Sieben is from Austin, and is probably the most famous skateboard artist working today. Had a solo at the UTexas museum recently. Orig and prints.

Also D*Face, Shepard Fairey, Jim Phillips, Scott Teplin, Scott Musgrove as well as a few others, including work from yours truly Smile!

If you are in Wynwood Dec 3-7, look for space 802b at Spectrum or contact me so I can VIP your group:

Took in the Alex Colville show at AGO yesterday. Wide-ranging and informative, it spans Colville's seven-decade career. I love the works that while appearing somewhat tranquil on the surface, hint at imminent or recent danger. Or at least a much deeper story that the viewer needs to piece together for themselves.

Or this.


Illustration is underrated as an art form. Those pieces are great...

Thanks for sharing, VinT.

I like the surreal like piece. Reminds me of Giorgio de Chirico.

Our recent trip to New York was in part to walk the great Breuer ( Lajko) building known as the Whitney Museum once more before its closing and relocation.

I love great architecture that is worthy of a visit even without any art. The Whitney has been such a treasure in its current location over the last four decades, and it will be missed as it is now closed. I have high expectations for their new building opening in May of 2015, and always look forward to seeing any work by the great Renzo Piano.

I have such fond memories of so many great exhibits over the years at the Whitney that have enriched my life like millions of fellow art enthusiast.

Recently got back from NYC and the Matisse cut out exhibit at MOMA is a must see if you love art and have access. The 1 hour earlier opening for museum members is needed to fully enjoy the exhibit. Joining the museum to get that less crowded time is worthy of discussion. I came away fully understanding how important this cut out period was in Matisse's evolution as a great artist. His oils are amazing but so are his cut outs.

VinT, congratulations to you and C.

I know we talked via email about these prints, but I cannot recall, do you know the year and the printers name?

Each arrived with a suspect-looking 'Certificate of Authenticity', which I will check this weekend for the printer and date information.

Okay, sounds good.

They do not look like works from Albert Carman's in New York. ( 1940's)

Tate Liverpool - cool Warhol exhibit was on display. Highlight:...we watched this 5-minute film, "The Coat," by Keren Cytter, intriguing and bazaar; we were all a bit befuddled by it. As we were watching, my 3-year-old asked, as if he were requesting more carrots or to turn the light on in the bathroom..."What's happening to my mind?" Simply, priceless.

Back from a recent trip...
Centre Pompidou, kids enjoyed this quite a bit, esp the Koons retrospective. The entire 6th floor was closed however (until April) Frown
Pinacotheque de Paris - A Klimpt/secessionist exhibition. What appeared to be the entire Beethoven frieze, Judith and a few lessen known works. Schiele and Kokoschka also represented. Highly recommended if in Paris, on display until mid June.
Musee Picasso - Wow!
Would have liked to have gone to another art museum (Musee de arte modern de ville de Paris, would have been the choice), but it was a short trip (5d/4n).

I've been very drawn to grand scale photos recently. Massimo Vitali has always appealed to me with his perspective from up high and the over-exposed expanses of his shots.

Recently I discovered Stephen Wilkes who takes thousands of shots of one scene throughout the day and evening. He then stitches elements of those shots together to create incredibly detailed and beautiful scenes that are part daylight and part nighttime. His print of Coney Island is one we would love to get someday.
