NY Shitty

For the non-New Yorkers, these images you are seeing are made on subway maps of Manhattan and then given a little extra flair before being affixed to lonely walls in the city.

Pure Beauty by John Baldessari at LACMA now showing through September 12, 2010

Los Angelinos – head on over to LACMA to see a wonderful retrospective of American artist John Baldessari’s work.  The exhibit entitled “Pure Beauty” showcases over 150 works dating back from 1962 to present day.  The mixed media exhibit features photos, paintings, videos and the artist’s books.  Photography is not allowed in the exhibit, so you’ll have to be sneaky and wait for the security guards to send text messages as I did if you want some snaps.  “Pure Beauty” runs until September 12, 2010 at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Sticker Combo

Biggie Fries and a message from the HFA.

It’s a rare treat when you get two wonderful stickers for the price of one.  The HFA haven’t paid a visit to New York in awhile, but their presence is always felt.  For the visually impaired, the top image is Biggie Fries (featuring the late rapper Notorious B.I.G.) and the bottom sticker says “It’s not because you’re paranoid that we’re not after you.”  I think you should think about those words of wisdom as you are looking over your shoulder.

Why settle for a couple of images from ASVP when you can have 6 for the price of 2?  This is cost effectiveness in the Great Depression of 2010, according2g.

Os Gemeos on display at PRISM in LA through September 4, 2010

Due to the timing of my vacation in Los Angeles, I am catching the tail end of a lot of exhibits, but it is my duty to share them with you.  Rearrange your plans and make sure you catch “Come As You Are” at PRISM as it is only open until September 4, 2010.  The exhibit features works by Susanne Melanie Berry, Kelsey Brookes, Clayton Brothers, Richard Coleman, Os Gemeos, Dennis Hopper, Barry McGee, Ryan McGinness, Cleon Peterson, Clare Rojas, Craig Stecyk, Deanna Templeton, and Ed Templeton.  The space at PRISM is magnificent as well and on your visit, make sure you catch the Gustavo Godoy sculpture on the roof.  PRISM is located at 8746 West Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood.
