joshua brennan

joshua brennan's work is extremely taser factory. i've enjoyed it for quite some time, but only recently got around to looking him up web style. he did his mfa printmaking thing at IU. i always looked forward to seeing his new work at SOFA gallery during the school year. it never failed to really get me going, so much so that i would end up drinking way too much and would have to leave.
i wish we had had the opportunity to talk more about things or hang out while we were in the same town, but it never seemed in the cards. someone spoke to me about similarities in our work once, but i didn't get it.
yeah! don't be a fool like me, and wait forever to check out his site! there is so much brushed over content and style in his pieces...it gouges the depths of my mind. these edgy clusterfucks i've attached here are just the tip of the 'riceberg. his site is totally stacked with work of many different makes.

i especially enjoy the "floor and table" series in the drawings section.

justin clifford rhody's "to-do-list"

lately i've been going through all the various folders of incredible stuff i've been collecting over the years. it's quite overwhelming. then again, i'm a pack-rat. here's my latest favorite. it's something justin clifford rhody sent me quite a while ago. it's impressive, inspiring, and depressing to me. personally, my "to-do-lists" never get completely cleaned out, and i bet jcr actually knocked out every assignment on this list. i love it, and display it proudly:jcr just released the second issue of his totally taser factory publication: "Drawings". I'm sure it's available through the friends and relatives records website. not sure, but there's tons of great stuff there anyway, so check it out.
