One of our all time faves, Brandi Milne, has a new show opening this weekend at Corey Helford Gallery and it’s going to be HAWT! The evolution of Brandi’s wonderfully playful style has been increasing exponentially over the past couple of years and this show is a great example of that. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favour and check it out. I guarantee it’s going to be great!

Dan May is one of those artists that you just can’t help but like. I dare you, try not and like him. Impossible. Well now that’s established, y0u’ll be pleased to know that he’s rocking a brand new show opening tonight in LA at Gallery 1988.  You’d really be doing yourself a disservice if you lived within a 50 mile radius of this gallery and DIDN’T go tonight. Mr. May has graciously sent some preview images to check out.

Our man, Joe Ledbetter, has what looks to be a really sweet new show mounting at the Corey Helford Gallery starting this Friday. Joe was kind enough to send over some previews and I think you’ll agree, there is much in the way of bad assery to seen. You really should check it out if you’re in the area.

EDIT: Daily du Jour has added a pretty lengthy interview with Joe to their blog this morning. Check it out here.

The great folks at Hi Fructose (really one of the best art mags on the scene, IMHO) has a few shots of the really-quite-amazing-looking new show mounted at Fecal Face dot Gallery in SF this week featuring GelaSkins alumni, Damon Soule. Soule (and his psychedelic, exploding, technicolor imagery) has been kicking ass for quite a while, but this time ’round, he brought some friends. The friends in question are none other than MARS-1, Oliver Vernon and David Choog Lee. These folks all contributed and collaborated Damon to make what is clearly one of the hottest looking shows this year.

How awesome is that?! All these guys are so rad I’m surprised they didn’t form some kind of Voltron-like robot and demolish the block at the end of the night.

Peep more pics from the Hi-Fruc crew over on their blog…

The man is a genius, there’s no question about it. His subject matter can be a tad on the creepy side from time to time, but his attention to detail is second to none. Truly a master at work…
