Here are some images of my work at the Contemporary Collage Show @ North Eastern Illinois University. Scans of the work to be added to my Collage Studies Flickr set sooner or later.
Above is the only good image I got of my work for the Let There Be Geo show at Columbia College Chicago’s A+D Gallery. Thanks to curator Elizabeth Burke-Dain for including me and for her long time support of what I do.
The flier for my first solo show entitled Concoction at Rotofugi Gallery from January 8th-24th. Opening reception January 8th, 7-10pm.
Printeresting asked me to submit some work for their ephemeral themed show entitled One Every Day. I sent out the piece pictured above as well as the piece created for the Rotofugi Chicago show. Both are 16″x20″ cut paper and graphite on panel. Check out some photos from the opening.
The dudes over at Rotofugi Gallery asked me to contribute to their Chicago Pride show. Above is the outcome. This is the first formal piece at this size (16″x20″) that I have been totally happy with. Most of my other fine art work that you have seen here has been around 5″x7″. Thanks to Andy Schwegler of Letterform for the photos.
I curated a show at the infamous warehouse gallery known as Co-Prosperity Sphere here in Chicago’s Bridgeport area. I made the mistake of not only curating the show but also creating new work! Who am I kidding… there is no way anyone can have enough time to make some work, curate, and promote a show simultaneously. Somehow I made it work. The show turned out pretty stellar. Pictured above are the show flier and grocery store installation which were both done in collaboration with the very talented Adrianne Goodrich. Also my hand painted five-by-eight foot Get It Together beer caddy for the front window. Check out more photos as well as the press release and a short video about the show at getittogethershow.com.
The Post Family just moved! We are super stoked. The new space allows enough room for a gallery (rightfully named The Family Room) and our screenprinting and letterpress studio. The images above are 10 pieces I did for the house warming party along with some fun process shots. All collages available at The Post Family Store. While supplies last!
On March 1st, 2008 Letterform generously gave all of us at The Post Family right to frolic in their space. Images above are of my installation for the show. Thanks to Andy-Bear and Sirens for the photos. To see more photos from the event go here and/or here.
I collaborated with Rod Hunting for ‘Mechanically Inclined,’ a one-night-only show focusing on analog art held at Letterform. More info about the show and images here.
