If you love art and are near San Jose this Saturday be sure and attend Anne and Mark's Art Party at the Santa Clara Fairgrounds. Mad Max meets Moulin Rouge as it is described. 200 talented Artists, performers, musicians, this is the best Art Show I have ever been to. Plus a couple of MTNMUN paintings will be present including "The Race" pictured here.

Wow, I guess that brings new meaning to Minimalism. Nothingalism? Sometimes I really can't stand artists. This has to be a joke.

Fortmental,
If that's for real- I would say incredible! I agree-what a bunch of ass-holes.
Give me an old master painting, or something that took some real skill.

Not far from where I live, a creative couple -- one a sculptor or "problem maker," the other a precision guy or "problem solver" -- has turned an old farm property into an outdoor sculpture garden, filled with whimsical original work of all sizes. Bedrock Gardens has been happening for some years but we just recently discovered this surprising and peaceful place.

fortmental, et al...
while it'd be awesome if true, the cbc story is just very good satire...
if you look through their archives there are headlines like "governor general finally designates the pick-up truck as a national symbol" or "love struck pilot grounded after attempting to write message in the sky with boeing 767" ...
here's the original photo that was shopped.

Cool Urn Yedi and a very beautiful glaze.
My painting "American River Bear" is the poster child for the upcoming Wild and Scenic Film Festival in Nevada City. I'm very honored to have my work selected for one of my favorite events of the year.

^^^^^^^^^^
hahaha!!
i know, i wasn't sure whether it was bullshit or not at first either...
most of the headlines on that show [which i've never heard about until now] are pretty close to the fence on the believability spectrum... you are sitting there going this has to be a joke, while another part of you is going who knows, it just might be true...
ie. the mark of some good satire...
hahahaha.

Hahaha, like you both said it wouldn't have surprised me. I still like your above painting or is it a sculpture Fort?
Mtn, big congrats, your work speaks for itself. Glad to see you get some recognition.

A page full of dilettanti, I see.
One can only IMAGE IN, I GUESS.
You need more actual STRUCTURE, is my only objection.
Otherwise, it's a novel approach to art.
The following were displayed for sale at Oakdale last fall.

River Bear made an awesome poster!
I've got a new batch of stained glass made up for Xmas. I'll get some pictures posted tomorrow when I get some daylight.

I made a quick visit to LACMA today. I had to revisit this Mark Bradford painting:
I was so entranced by it. I looked at it for ages.
Then I went down to the second floor and saw this totally fun piece:
The kids were in love with it. You could view it from the ground level or up on a mezzanine.
Then I went down to the first floor and appreciated this lovely Richard Serra:
I wish I could live in one of his pieces - I find them very peaceful!

Good story about Tilted Arch. It does seem like a completely inappropriate setting. In fact, I'm not sure what the appropriate setting for that piece would be.
