Jamison Brosseau, "The Natural", at 245 Varet.... a one-night party show.
My best three most wonderful art shows/encounters/experiences of the year.
Robert Janz... Mountain Mode... I noticed him working on the street, and then talked with him... later I looked him up and saw more.
Yohji Haijima, at Art + Eat... another chance encounter, a second artist in his eighties... we were just looking for a place to sit and have something to eat between galleries.. but it turned out to be the reception for the best show I saw in two months in Tokyo.
THANK YOU!

He had a show of these small ones at Chris Ashley's Some Walls.
a study.
the center diamond is a recycled postcard image from a previous show.
new work includes b&w photos hidden behind lattice.
Ken Weathersby's first (solo) show at Pierogi, on anaba 6/23/2010.
Full-size.... a circle was cut and slightly turned... it is very hard to photograph how cool some of these are... the colors merge in the photo, and you can't see the splotches and pencil lines.

Al Loving
Al Loving, at Gary Snyder. Closes 12/15.
Al Loving on anaba 1/8/08. So great.
I missed it but if you like this you should also see Alan Shields' Maze at Greenberg Van Doren... they were both in High Times, Hard Times... I made a label of artists in that show whom I have seen shows of since, more than twenty posts so far and I think I missed labeling a few.
There was a great Sven Lukin show at Gary Snyder earlier this year.

Rebecca Goyette
Rebecca Goyette, at Airplane.
Rebecca is screening her three completed lobster porns... funny hot smart and compelling. Also showing costumes, props and stills from the videos. GO TO AIRPLANE. it's on Jefferson. Sundays 12-6!!!
Lobsta Dress... I think this is what she was wearing when she got booted from Seven a couple years ago. Scroll down to seventh paragraph, and comments.
Stills from the videos... some gorgeous photos.
eggs on dress
Duke Riley. He really gets into it. bizarre absurd hot desperate and SICK!! Duke Riley is an even bigger nasty dirty perv than Goyette!
Ed in the sea pit snuggling with the vibrator stuffies.
Good place to watch a lobster orgy.
There was alcohol and hot fresh pies.
Barbarella of the Sea.
