"Spanish Silver Fox"
such a taser factory project!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spanish Silver
Fox
By: Guan Rong
Set in fashion
magazine format, Spanish Silver Fox offers an extensive view into Los Angeles
based artist Guan Rong's vision of her ideal husband.
In this production,
an in-depth interview conducted by artist Brian Getnick acts as a guide through
glossy pages of glamorously stylized work by photographers Patricia Castaneda
and Morgan Yu.
Reality and fantasy
merge herein to create what can easily be read as a physical dating site
profile of the artist, an appropriate conceptual platform for her views on
love, life, and desire.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
terrifyingly happy to see it in print, and proud as a clam to have had a hand in helping bring this into being.
just one of the cast, along with:
brian getnick, patricia castaneda, morgan yu, miya wang, mary jane boltz, and of course, the artist herself.
...sometimes it takes a crew large enough to fill an odd communal household to raise a full-color, conceptual, husband-hunting, fashion magazine.
the launch party was the icing, thanks to women's center for creative work.

Plywood Curtains by Jennifer Bolande
I generally like Jennifer Bolande's art work. While the past few years, at least what i've seen, has kinda been on the hit or miss tip for me, I'm always drawn in by her conceptual directions. Love it. Taser F'in Factory. Perfect example is her site-specific Plywood Curtain installations around Los Angeles...
Mainly utilizing unused commercial property...I can say as much about the effect as i can about the implied layers of concept, etc. They're beautiful. and apparently will be on view until sometime next year....
I spotted the installation at the ICON, and decided to hit up the art reserve site for these images. thanks art reserve...
