Month: February 2012

when May was talking to AT&T she said that

and then when i made fun of her she said “i couldnt think of any other word besides SEX” hahahaha!

where the S did this photo come from???? love it

where are we

oh shit we have remnants

this is the great threeasfours giving us some hot clothes for LA

i got to try on my dream coat
all i want is to be bundled forever!

i finished this wee thing for the BRUCENNIAL tomorrow!

its a portrait of my old intern Hikari Yokoyama. i found this image on her facebook and wanted to paint it

there is still this thing

ooo!

Matthew Stone

fantastic!

kathy did this!

Steve Powers muraled in Fulton St and i got to interview him
coming up soon in i-D: Robert Lazzarini, Eric Yhanker, and a new mystery artist!

didnt have time to finish this one

from the Serena Williams series

visiting Holton, our May exhibiting artist

fish stew!
how did he know that my favourite food group is SOUP???

planning a pretty uprecedentedly awesome show, if you only knew what this was gonna look like, oh man

its kathy!
we are lookin through that poetry book aurel diddled

the diddler

this one looks like Mudmud
Mudmud is really into squatting

saw donald this morning actually, smoking a cigarette and enjoying the sun on fourth street at 8am

im sorry but you guys all need to buy this book, the poems too are just fantastic!

i have a mini one of these
i am a lucky beach

speaking of beach

Guido uploaded some of his photos of Tulum so you get to see a wee glimpse again of that since my photos of it kinda suckied

travis!
i want to do something with travis

six tequila shots is maybe two too many for poor kathy

ha ha martin’s hair is extra fluffy

martin and amis
i must be nervous because i made hair bonnet
but why am i nervous because i look awesome in that weird dress
i should wear that again…

Guido is a prancing peacock!

True Religion lady! fancy meeting you fancies there!

ok ok i promise to get on with this

so dont kill me but i only have the last day of LA photos as the others i uploaded earlier onto laptop that i left at home and you are already bored and probably wont read end of sentence but main LA post will be tomorrow i promise!

these are after we left the Os Gemeos afterparty and PC took us to the fuckign weirdest party of my life

you cant see because i was too faded to foto but we were at this mansion where all the girls looked like high class call girls and looked like paris hilton, including paris hilton who was there

it might have just been the mushrooms but i freaked out

andre photoing cyprien with some car condoms
at the beverly hills hotel aka indochine

trying to upskirt may 🙂

andre reading the huge article all about him in the times saturday!!!

we didnt come home till six in the six in the mornin’

and had to go to jeffrey’s at noon!

jeffrey deitch
what can i say about jeffrey

has got some killer new furniture

everything is better with a little May though!

Urs Fischer table

featuring that Robert Longo of Jeffrey!
amazing!

shep dog
portraiting Jeffrey’s two main men

Kembra! Retna!

Banksy!
hey if you are a Banksy fan and got some bucks, we should talk, turkeys

ah jeffrey!

i miss him so much!

i hate not getting to be around him, its strange that this feeling has intensified over the last year, the hole in my personal life not just nyc left by jeffrey is real and it fucking sucks!

he enriched my life so much
its hard to explain because only those really close to him got to see this side of him i suppose, but a side of a compassionate friend, brilliant creative interlocutor, insightful advice giver, funny anecdote teller, its hard to explain and probably sounds far fetched to those who only saw his sometimes awkward or distant public persona

i need jeffrey in my life! not as a boss just as someone to hang out with

i hope thats not embarrassing to say
that i actually really LIKE him

this is a photo of May and the Playboy photographer going through their shoot and i can’t of course show you any of it but MAN it is really arty edgy and awesome. sooo just what playboy needs i think

Sayre’s studio
again i can’t spill any beans on this

ill show you two pieces from a few months ago that we are shippin to NYC to sell tho

amazing

ooh and a detail
Sayre sneaking into NYC this November!

i am a brat
i am the wurst!!!!

i like this photo

remember that Steve Powers piece?

this one

big trouble in little china!

entering

the void!

we had breakfast with a new client and then snuck in some vintage shopping

i dont think there is enough fabric there to technically deem those “shorts”

this dress didnt even have a zipper!
very ventilated

then May took me for the best sandwich i have ever had at Kings Cross

go there and EE crew that place seriously
amazing

speaking of crews
i have NO good graffiti photos
sorry!

its not my fault its that cars go too fast and there is not much good graffiti there

Eric Yahnker’s studio
you are only getting to sneaky peeky this piece because i wanted to have at least one photo of jason on blog
he and fab came on studio visit with me and it made me happy

amazing

Eric is THE MAN

Eric!
dropping into The Hole this September

oh and he has solo booth in armory with Ambach and Rice that involves sub sandwitches
remember when Suzanne got those 12 foot subs for rosson party?
maybe i will bring him one of those to armory…

THE AGONY
of having to hold back from showing you all his awesome artworks
this bad boy will be in our showroom during armory tho so come see in person!

there’s the rub

now we are at some dudes sneaker office thing
look at this killer Phil Frost he owns

look at this REVOK piece
does REVOK make art that looks like this?
i see an AUGOR in there but i didnt see any up in LA and that made me sad

isnt there a new TV show where all characters wear these things
what is that show and why is it?

suzanne has these in purple but MAN these are made from art handler blankets!!!
i should get these
i used to love napping it off in the back of Deitch wrapped in art handler blankets

Atiba kept offering us pie and said “he was raised right” and i said to cram girls full of pie? and he said to offer girls dessert multiple times because they always do want it.
TRUE

18 and a half hours

good thing i’ve been having insomnia

Roland and Cian took me to Agnes B opening it was fun

walked myself down to Duane and Reade street

Purple had a dinner party at the Duane Reade down there
celebs spotted at the Duane Reade were: Caroline Roitfeld, Linsay Lohan, erm maybe others??
i talked to Cynthia Rowley about how the best pickup line ever is “my boyfriend is in jail”
i talked to Spencer about him loaning his pad to this famous filmmaker to shoot a movie and then met the filmmaker and then forgot his name
i talked to Terence about where we can locate a man of leisure to do activities with him
i talked to Nikki about how much she likes BLKDNM and how we used to trade clothes back in deitch times and both like boy looking clothes
Dash’s brother had his hair just like dash in two tight braids and had a leather vestlet just like dash used to wear and yeah
i talked to Chrissy about her running this bar and how everyone always expected her to be there, and how if i had a restaurant i would have to spend all my time there
i talked to Karley about anal sex, again
what else?

it was a really fancy Duane Reade that had, like, ceviche nibblets in the cosmetics department

and some rabbit food in the pet section!

went to Boom Boom with Karley and lets see i didn’t take photos so i must paint you a beautiful image with my words
hmmm
had to talk way in at door cuz forgot to RSVP, whined a lot “but i just came from the DINNER” to no avail, Simonez grabbed me and pulled me in finally before my nose froze off. smush smush up the elevator, mash mash mash into the boom room, ho hum wait forever for a fifteen dollar vodka soda (thanks somebody!) ran into some cute boys, smoked a cigarette on a clear floored death defying terrace, talked to cute boys more, phone died before i could secure an important hand off, got more drunker as boys poured their half drunk drinks into my empty glass, lossa people flash flash tee hee photos of each other everywhere, lots of Whitney Houston from the DJ booth, wobblewooble out door into cab, walking home harrassed by scary guy insisting to buy me a “night cap” finally say emphatically NO after he follows me to my front door, get called a stupid bitch

yay!

lets do a darky sneaky peaky at what is going up here

because the show opens in two days!

OMG how sppooky is this

sometimes i get scared alone in the dark gallery

then i remember it’s just art~!
fire in the hole!

really, chicago?
why dont you say “parking meters were left here due to laziness”

superbowl snacks

jack and i went to THE WORST movie

thank goodness for jack! i would have been so sad

huggin pillows all night

i spent the first half of the super bowl in the pokey
talkin through some bulletproof glass

of all the times i wanted to take photos…
that just about killed me that all i have is this sad weird mental picture to show for it

this was the art institute “project room” for emerging artists
i didnt know i was allowed to take photos so i snuck this one
the project in the back left is “photos of different shades of black” for different levels of deep space blah blah shot through telescope blah blah i am bored even just typing this imagine what it was like in person

blorp!

the modern wing was amazing tho

Takeshi Murata pink dot!!!

i was showing a sam moyer piece to a client and mentioned sterling ruby and then mentioned rothko and the client was like HORRIFIED i put them in same sentence and im like what?

nick and i were supposed to go ice skating 🙁

profound sigh of disappointment!

omg went to the best restaurant though

terrible name terrible graphic design but great food

jack’s Givenchy dog is hungry

too bad all the food was so petite

explore

jack selected this for our explore

fuck

fuck

the landings had all fallen out in the stairwell so we had to like pull ourselves around the corner, dangling over 40+ feet precipices

i suck because after a few flights i decided i did not want to die like this

i do not want this abandoned factory to be my cold cold grave

especially after like four martinis

jack admitted that my plummeting to my death would be traumatic for him as well

you dont know how cold and how dark

clinging to a freezing old metal husk of a stairwell

the metal on bare fingers sucking my life out of my hands

live to die another day

bye scary forge of industry

pit stop

all the funny jokes i wanna write about these photos are TMI so you just get….cats

and old dicks!

my small blond friend has found himself in the soup again

i think i have too many photos for one post so lets see how many we can cram in here

what have we learned from last time

i am in the market for a single Ben

i am doing artist visits

we have the best summer exhibition in the works you guys

we learned “no bedroom, no bathroom”
i think that is the best plan

the problem is no risk, no catharsis
so i will just have to seek catharsis elsewhere

this has been actually the only thing ever that has made me seriously consider going to a shrink

i had no experience dealing with grief and i might have done it the wrong way

ka-POW look at this amazing photo of May in front of that amazing Kenny Scharf

look at the amazing Bill Powers in his Half Gallery deinstalling

Evan Hecox
