It’s official– next month I’ll be traveling to Boston to visit a good friend, then to New York for a solo show (!) and Savannah for a group show. Details to come. If you’re in any of those places and want to cause some trouble, let me know!
I’m very close to done with my new series, Signs of Life– collections of billboards, gargantuan shopping center signs, etc. These will be shown for the first time in New York (alongside the Satellite Collections and Everyone on Google Earth.) Scouring Google Satellite for Waffle House signs and 1-800-GET-THIN billboards has also given me good occasion to keep up the Satellite Tourist tumblr, which is becoming quite the archive of satellite anomalies (such as this fire I found in Baton Rouge):
All the People on Google Earth continues to get a surprising amount of press, including this interview in Guernica and this feature in Wired Italy, in which they describe me as “living proof that contemporary art produced technologically is mediated not only by male geeks.”
Lastly, a couple of friends of mine are having openings in the East Bay this Friday (the 13th). Their work is amazing and definitely worth stopping by to see! First is the lovely Alissa Polan‘s “Goldie Gallop’s Chaos, Destruction & Shovels Extravaganza” at mauve? gallery.
rawr!
That opening will be at 7pm in the mauve? office. The same night, you can catch Luca Antonucci’s work alongside Cybele Lyle’s at the Royal Nonesuch.
Hope to see you there!
