A Truth

"Having sex is like getting old and young at the same time."

Here's a painting by Jim Herbert from his solo show at English Kills.

Huge thanks to Katarina and Terri (the masterminds), Ken, Andrea and Matthew (the artists), jojoSoul (mix master), and everyone who joined us.

If y'all wanna party like we do...

…. simply awesome! The art opening and the 90s dance party was crafted in the kitchen ofBushwickGallery.com, our artsy lil’ sister, and brought to life thanks to our dear friends 950 Hart Gallery. Last Friday night has proved once again that the power of creative collaboration is amazing.

I don't know about them, but we're havin' a ball.

Getting Ready for Mushroom Universe!

With "A Midsummer Night's Dream" coming up, we decided to try something new with the gallery. The sudden departure of all of our roommates gave us the room to maneuver downstairs. So we threw away everything they left behind that wasn't art.

**

Then Antoinette cleaned and painted the entire floor a solid black. She painted it with a brush. We hung some art by Raquel, Antoinette, Kronenberg, Grant, and Joe.

**

Teddi Rogers, Michael Noel, E.V. Svetova, and Irena Romendik dropped off some artwork. Then a mystery man named Eisig Frost created a projection room out of a bunk bed and some green fabric gifted to us by Bil Bond.

**

On the night of the exhibition Michael and I spoke with Oriana of the cool blog Brooklyn Spaces about the gallery.

Before all of that came to pass, our friend Worm Carnevale stopped by for a photo shoot with our dinosaur-girl.  She makes tri-hawks out of her hair for special occasions.  This one was for when Simon Pegg Came to town.

About one week before we were set to hang that show at the Life Cafe, we received a letter from someone that prompted most of the roommates from one section of our gallery to leave...

****

So Antoinette and I moved our bed upstairs and lived alone together for a month.  Until a painter by the name of Raquel Echanique moved in with us.  She is my art sister.

What's so funny 'bout a little peace, love and art battling?

[950hart-blog-blog]

There is no valid reason to miss what's going to happen tomorrow.

**

The mind behind numerous art shows has brought us a solo exhibit.

**

You must have heard of him: the photographer, the video artist, the art director, the experimental musician.

**

Worm Carnevale will let us live every dream in one night.

**

This is your opportunity to meet the person who has stayed behind the curtain.  The one pulling down the strings of collage and mastering it into different art forms.  He juxtaposes the most immediate elements that can bite the collective brain, underlining discomfort as a necessary feeling.

**

His work can make us recall a contemporary Pavlov that brings the innate and conditioned reflex to the art world.

**

We are doing nothing but inhabiting an automatic body.  Everything else is a dream.

**

Eat, shit, smoke, fuck.  Repeat.  Be prepared for your nervous system to be drilled.

**

I hope to see every moving body and mind tomorrow, from 7 until 10PM at 950 Hart Gallery.

6.  Worm Carnevale is an exception to many, many rules.

**** Rule 1:  He hangs all of his own work. Rule 2:  He can pack a wall until it looks like the Milky Way. Rule 3:  Life Café?  9 pieces instead of 20. Rule 4:  No eyes know I.  Glasses on. Rule 5:  Turn the camera on yourself.

5.  Document while others document.

**** -This isn’t meta.  This reminds you how much love you put into what you do.
