Album art for BSS

I recently finished album artwork for the new Broken Social Scene album Forgiveness Rock Record. The album drops on May 4th via Arts & Crafts.

You can download a free track from the album at BSS’s site.
Or at Pitchfork and read the latest update from the band.

Pffffft

I’ve started a new blog with Justin Peroff,
drummer of Broken Social Scene called pffffft.com (that’s 5 f’s)

I’ll be posting here still but probably not as much. Mostly this blog will be more for personal happenings and art and art shows, etc.

On that note, here’s the piece that I have in the
THIS / these friends show.

i love what this site is all about!
here it is in their words:

“We feel artists are under-valued, under-exposed, and generally under-appreciated. Our goal is to bring attention to artists that otherwise don’t get the attention they deserve. If we can bring their art to one person that would have otherwise missed the opportunity to see it, we feel like we have made a contribution to the art community.”

fuck yeah. i’m all about that!

upcoming show

THIS WAS SENT OUT FROM THE GALLERY TODAY!

We are happy to present ‘As Serious of Your Life Is’ – our first show by Los Angeles artist Joe Mckay. Joe creates wonderfully clever and thought provoking collages with a bare bones aesthetic that, in many cases, guides the viewer just enough to a point of departure… to a place where the viewer is left with a playful curiosity and a need to read between the lines… sometimes quietly serious, many times funny, this will prove to be quite a fun show.

In the project room of the gallery, we are very happy to present ‘Sleep to Dream’ – five beautiful photographs by Claire Sloan. The photos are from a series in which she takes 6 – 9 hour exposures of herself sleeping. Its an amazing series, all done on medium format film, printed with a lightjet and mounted on sintra. Currently studying at UC Davis, she began shooting photographs at 14 years old and is now pursuing a degree in art. This will be her first show in Los Angeles.

Join us on the 12th of December, 2009 from 6 – 10pm for the opening reception with the artists, a special guest DJ and some familiar faces.
