The Books!!

I saw these guys Saturday night at Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall. WHAT A SHOW. I was incredibly inspired and about to ask my parents to ship out my guitar and drum and maracas and any other instrument that’s laying around so I can start playing again. You must explore these guy’s work. A Visual, electronic and acoustic marriage that is bound to last.

Zanker Hall is also a flexible space. Check out this time lapse video of the room in motion.

AlterEgo – The Movie

I watched this movie last night…and I am incredibly impressed with Daniel’s work. It all really came together and it’s a solid piece of documentation. This movie is a robust view of the art form, its history and its current perils. It’s exciting, informative, absorbing and personal. I love it, can you tell? If graffiti is somehow part of your life, you need to watch this. No, actually, everyone should. The DVD is available here.

I’ve been waiting for this moment for a while now. My good friend Daniel has finished his film. He has traveled the world to capture great graffiti artists doing their work. I am so proud of him and this will be a kick ass movie. If you happen to be in Berlin, go to the premiere. If you are stuck at work (like me), check out the website alterego-themovie.com.

William Eggleston at the Whitney

aaaah!!!!!! one of my favorites…William Eggleston is currently at the Whitney until Jan 25th. I love love lovvve his work… This exhibit includes 50 years of his photographs and videos from many of his road trips across America.




‘One of the most influential photographers of the last half-century, William Eggleston has defined the history of color photography. This exhibition is the artist’s first retrospective in the United States and includes both his color and black-and-white photographs as well as Stranded in Canton, the artist’s video work from the early 1970s. The exhibition will travel throughout the United States as well as to the Haus der Kunst in Munich following its New York presentation.”

Here’s a great article about William Eggleston from NYmag.com.
