Happenings this Weekend



This Saturday, January 17, I'll be at

RETROSPECTIVE OF RAUSCHENBERG'S ART AT GEMINI G.E.L.  
AT THE ARMORY CENTER FOR THE ARTS


for the opening reception at 7pm.  Some good friends and their friends will be there (Jan & Charissa of The Gifted Blog) and it should be a sweet evening of inspiration and fun.

Gemini is a publisher/workshop that fostered the collaboration of many printmakers including Rauschenberg.  J. introduced me to their work at a used bookshop in San Diego where we got this book.  Seeing all those printmakers deep in ink, bent over tables together was pretty aweinspiring stuff.

I also ran into an artist at Portfolio Coffee House the other day in Long Beach (he overheard my conversations about Rauschenberg and Gemini and jumped right in).  He's showing at the Haus Gallery in Pasadena and specializes in video art.
