Evan Hecox Sound Advice 141
Getting ready for our next show with Evan Hecox, Dark Island, and listening to the latest Sound Advice from The World’s Best Ever:
Pulled from The World’s Best Ever, here is Stephen Powers at the 2012 PSFK Conference in NYC:
“In this video from PSFK CONFERENCE NYC, artist Steve Powers takes us through his recent public and private art projects. He explains love-letters to the neighborhoods he painted on the sides of buildings in Brooklyn. He also talks about his one-a-day art “Daily Metaltation” pieces that he paints on 8×10 pieces of metal. When you’re presented with any day you’re presented with a blank slate he says and as an artist its his job to find some form and boundaries and distill his experiences of the day onto that canvas.”

‘Go East’ Opening Photos
It was our great pleasure to host the opening reception for Go East- a group show curated by Mark Moore Gallery of Los Angeles. This exhibition features work from four emerging artists, including Chad Person, Feodor Voronov, Kenichi Yokono, and Yoram Wolberger. We are really looking forward to Go West in July 2012, the second half of this bi-coastal “gallery swap” at Mark Moore Gallery, with work on display by Joshua Liner Gallery artists David Ellis and Kris Kuksi. Special thanks to Christos Katsiaouni for these great photos of the reception. Please enjoy!

Evan Hecox - new works to debut May 2012
Here are some progress shots of Five Boroughs from Evan Hecox’s tumblr page. Hecox will be creating a new body of work, solely based on New York City. Using vintage newspaper from the New York Weekly Times (from 1875??), the artist is literally creating a historic foundation for the work in this exhibition. The opening reception will be Thursday, May 24th from 6 to 9pm. Can’t wait!
