Hey ya'll.


I had the pleasure of visiting my bud Walker Blackwell from Blackpoint Editions to print up my thesis two weeks ago. It's possibly the best set-up ever: farm, wood-burning stove and a piezo setup. I was lucky enough to haul up some of Nick Nixon's negs to have drum scanned. Both with printing and scanning I was absolutely blown away!!!!

Anywho.

My thesis show opens today, Tuesday April 15th and runs through April 24th with a reception Thursday April 17th from 6-8pm (Address follows). I'M FINALLY DONE!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm crazy fortunate to be showing next to Guillermo Srodek-Hart (had an article in View Camera an issue or two ago) and to be included in an amazing group of sculptors and painters.... I am absolutely humbled by their work. I can honestly say that this is one of the most cohesive and well-hung multi-disciplinary shows I've ever seen. . . . if we sucked, I wouldn't be making this announcement.


So if you're in the Boston area, it's definitely worth czeching out the show.

621 Huntington Avenue, Boston MA 02115

Congratulations! wish I could see it. I'm at the mid-point review points in my MFA from Acadamy of Art University. Sort of apprehensive about the amount of verbage they want-I'm a visual artist not a writer!

Congratulations!

I won't be anywhere near Boston ... will the show be online?

I'm a fan of the Massart program, and always curious to see what the students are up to.

I went to mass art when it was in a building right next to Beth Israel Hospital. This was back in the early 1970's.

i assume anti-aethetic.net is you?

i really like the pittsburg series.

all the sites you posted are encouraging. it's nice to see a grad program validating work that isn't cut-n-paste, scratch-n-sniff, performance, or instalation. not that these things are bad, but it's nice to have the option to opt out. a lot of programs won't let you.
