Neu Folk Revival at Lequivive

Our first full day in California was spent getting our bearings. We rode the MUNI and BART and found it pretty easy to get around. First stop, the haul to Oakland for the Neu Folk Revival show at Lequivive Gallery.

On our way, we wandered to a street gathering where we saw more art at a new spot called Naming Gallery. We met some rad people who swear they knew Jess and I from somewhere else. After a long talk about past places and faces, We could never figure it out, but there was some good music playing, so we just hung out with them before the show. Also, a sweet interactive music performance by Zach Huston was enjoyed by all.

Then we walked over to Lequivive Gallery where we hung out and checked out the early end of Neu Folk Revival’s opening night. We met Rich Jacobs, a great inspiration of mine and Max Kauffman, who curated the show and also an amazing artist. Thanks to Max and Mike at Lequivive for all the hard work on this show. It was really great.

Common House and Karate Foot

Get out to Common House for their two-year anniversary and a sweet show and zine release. This show will be full of great work by artists from around Austin.

Chrissy P and I collaborated on a work for the show. Using canvas and acrylic, I painted and she stitched and constructed a sweet wall piece. Get by the show this weekend to check it out.

Some photos from the field

Snapshots from some recent projects in the works. I’ve got a few things lined up for the next couple months, so stay tuned to see me try and do them all at once. If you have any projects you’d like to get started before the end of the year, it’s time to start planning on getting those things done.

I can’t wait for some Fall temperatures! 100+ degrees all this week.

Neu Folk Revival

Exhibition: October 5th – November 2nd

A Group Show Curated By Max Kauffman

LeQuiVive Gallery & guest curator Present, Neu Folk Revival a group show exploring notions of traditional art making. The title refers to a new movement working in these confines, or rather a cross section of artists from different realms that make work that speaks to this tradition. By celebrating these techniques, it is hoped that new appreciation for work done by hand, done for the simple act of creation is looked at in line with great artists spanning back to the dawn of civilization. At its core, it is visual storytelling, done by the everyday man, the craftsmen, the self taught, and the sometimes obsessive.
