Tom Sanford

Tom Sanford is interviewed on Bad at Sports. These are some images of new work from his studio, discussed during the inteview, which will be included in his show at Leo Koenig (opening on May 2nd).


Dollar Bill Y'All!

RELATED: I think No Rules Jules is part of this body of work and will be in the May show.
UPDATE: I've added a Tom Sanford label.

Herman 'Ray' Davis + Christoph Ruckhaberle

An artist and flickr contact named BlueCin recently favorited two of my flickr photos. These were both taken at shows in Saratoga, but at very different spaces and a month or so apart... I had never connected them. Thanks, BlueCin.


Herman 'Ray' Davis, at Uncommon Grounds (a coffee shop). The subject of this painting is Tatyana Grossman.


Christoph Ruckhaberle, at Skidmore.

PLUS: here are all of my flickr favorites... some real good stuff.

*NEW* - from Marketa.

i like the blues and roses...

i took all of these photos with disposable cameras, sometimes they turn out blue-ish, sometimes more rosy. they look best all together, mixed-up.

Richard Hamilton Yellow

Quite Righteously!

Looking at Richard Hamilton. Took this photo from Contessa Nally's blog... she has all the best Venice B. art and fashion pictures (scroll down), and goes to tons of art and fashion shows. Barnaby have you seen it? Scroll through.

(nally took my picture once)

This is Kai Vierstra.

Kai is included in Fresh Meat at Kim Foster Gallery until July 2nd along with a number of other recent graduates of VCU's MFA sculpture program. Some of the others showing are Diana Al-Hadid, Sarah Bednarek, Gabriel Bennet, Tim Devoe, and Fernando Mastrangelo. The VCU Sculpture program is ranked #1 in the country so those curious what all the fuss is about should try to see the show. I heard Jerry Saltz came by and took a bunch of notes.

Kim Foster Gallery doesn't seem to have it's own website, just an Artnet page which hasn't been updated, but fortunately Kai has a good website with all of his work including in-progress shots of Earthquake, his Kim Foster piece.

Kai is currently in residence at Skowhegan. Sarah McEneaney is up there as visiting faculty - I bet she's making some good paintings.
