“Everything Ever and Nothing Never” @ Needles and Pens 4/2/2012

I am curating a group show titled “Everything Ever and Nothing Never” opening this Saturday April, 7th 2012 from 7:00-9:30 p.m at Needles and Pens in San Francisco. Please stop by if you are in the area.

Featuring the works of: Jai Tanju, Tahiti Pehrson, Deuce 7, Aminah Slor, Read More Books, Kevin Bouton-Scott, Grady Gordon, Michael Alvarez, David Jien, Jeff Canham, Bill Daniel, Joey Alone, Derek Albeck, Ross Farrar, Ken Davis, Ian Norstad, Nicolas Torres, and Austin McManus

“Everything Ever and Nothing Never,” an eclectic group show curated by Austin McManus, will be hosted by Needles & Pens Gallery on Saturday, April 7 from 7-9pm, 2012. The event will showcase emerging and established artists working in a variety of mediums, including sculpture, painting, printmaking, photography, graphite drawing, video and mixed media. “The artists chosen for this show have made a strong impression on me individually at different times over the years, often underrated and overlooked, all possessing characteristics and traits that make them unique artists,” says McManus.

* On display through May 27, 2012

Mike Dream RIP retrospective @ International Hotel. A thorough and diverse display of work. Worth a visit, more than what you see here. The videos are great!

Packages ready for an adventure and a new home.

Jay and Mark showed at Fecal Face

I wanted this one for the collection, but it was sold.
