Needless to say I forgot to make reference to this article previously published on Miami Art Exchange back in April, 2006. They were written by my friend, Steven Kaplan (NYC). Both articles include images. Miami Art Exchange – No Occident, No Restraint (from NYC part 1) Miami Art Exchange – Matthew’s Blarney (from NYC part [...]

Ron y 7 Originally uploaded by artlab. Yesterday I went with Paul to meet up with another of our computer friends. Of couse, most of what they talked about was beyond my understanding in a practical application sense but, I’m learning new stuff. I had already eaten something before going out but, decided to have [...]

I saw the “Making of Drawing Restraint 9″ (though technically not a “film”) with Paul on Christmas eve. He wasn’t impressed and, didn’t think vasoline could be considered a sculptural material. We obviously differ but, the full movie would be something I would love to see.

Although I may not celebrate Christmas regularly, which I never have, this year was not too bad as a holiday. Holidays involved with spending money have never been good holidays for me even when I was young and was given money to spend by my parents. I was more motivated to buy the gift I [...]

Art Hangover! Originally uploaded by artlab. Although some might try to deny it, we’re now suffering from an Art Hangover! No steady caravan of human hoofs passing in front of paintings, sculptures, photos, work-on-paper, sipping many varieties of wine, champagne, vodka, sipping gin out of silver flasks or, listening to loud music pounding out of [...]

Art Basel Miami closes tonight but, I have to finish up my grading of students since it’s due tomorrow morning. After that, I’ll have more time to say something about the many, many events. A few images have been posted to my Flickr account because that’s the easiest to handle at the moment. There are [...]
