Steven Eichhorn

Although I’m quite sure that Mr. Eichhorn’s work has been posted elsewhere before, it is new to me! I found his work via a series of Flickr searches, which then led me to his site. Such great collages.

Somehow, We All Seem Connected: Steven Harrington & Justin Krietemeyer

This was a great show. National Forest’s Steven Harrington and Justin Krietemeyer collaborated on this two-man exhibition which premiered at Studio Number One. It was the perfect space for this show. When we walked in the door we were greeted by a giant cheerful teepee of Steve’s as well as a roll of his limited edition print fabric, draped from the ceiling down to the turntable set up where Shepard Fairey was spinning, followed later by Kristian Henson and others. The event was sponsored by Dewars, so there were no shortage of wonderful whiskey drinks (complete with British bartender). One couldn’t help but notice that there were strong Native American themes in Steven’s work (complete with handmade teepees, drums, tambourines, and shakers). Perhaps not coincidentally, there were also the same themes echoed in the dress of several fellow patrons. This year is definitely going to see a huge trend of Native American prints in clothing and textiles, much more so than last year, I suspect. I was really hoping that Steve would sell the yardage below (I’ll make my own pillow, thank you very much!) It was a beautiful show… filled with beautiful hipsters and delicious drinks. I hope that the fellows sold a good bit of their work, as it all looked great.

Hannah Waldron show

If you are in the UK somewhere near the Old Shoreditch Station, you should try to make it to Hannah Waldron’s show!  Thank you Hannah, for the invite. Check out Hannah’s site for new work, even if you can’t make it to the show.

Simpleasures show

Yesterday we went to a zine show put on by Studio Number One. The show was like APE but with 1/4 the people showing (cutting out the folks who strictly draw lifelike renderings of naked ladies on dragons)… anyway we didn’t go with a lot of cash, so this is what we came away with. Mostly zines from Sumi Ink Club, and one from Forest. Overall a good show, albeit small.

Zachary Rossman show at Park Life

Just a heads up that our good friend Zach Rossman will be showing at Park Life in San Francisco next month (I believe this is his second show there).  Not sure of dates/times yet, but if you will be in the Bay Area next month, check Zach’s site or the Park Life site for more info as posted…!

Louise Body wallpaper

I really love Louise Body’s wallpaper prints… here are two that I like in particular, although it’s hard to narrow down to two!

Etsy find: Nathan Veach

ASCII art– images formed from letters and smbols from typwriters or computers… if that is unfamiliar to you, you may have had your eyes closed for the past 50-or-so years.   I just found Nathan Veach’s Etsy shop, and was pleased to discover that he will create custom ASCII portraits for you the old school way- with a typewriter!  Very reasonably priced too.

I love these phantasmagorical images by Ver Huell featured on BiblioOdyssey.
