Final Friday

Hi All,

I wanted to mention two exhibits that will be very worth checking out tomorrow.

Shift Space is hosting a Kinetic Sculpture exhibit, which will be exciting and is a must see!

Also, Heterotopia is hosting "For Example," which is a group exhibit. The gallery is located at 1714 E Douglas. Go see it!

Thanks

Linkages and stuff

OK these will probably be the last links to prints/printmakers I put up here, I'm done with the search engines :)
These are great sites for prints.

The Ulrich had a print attributed to Rembrandt up in the conference room for a while. I was surprised to see the sketchy line work, it didn't have the feel of a rigid planned out print project but more of a drawing. Very cool.

MOMA

The Mueseum of Modern Art in NYC was incredible. I was lucky enough to catch not one but two exibitions of an artist that I've admired for a long while, Marlene Dumas. Please check out the link to see some of her artwork. Was beautiful and mesmerizing in person. www.moma.org/exhibitions/

I found this guy when I was doing some research for my painting class. http://www.sdbarber.com/pages/tattoo_icon_pg.html

He does portraits of people and other artists with tattoos.
