It's been a great weekend. Will write more later but right now I just want to say if you are in New York and you get a chance you should go check out Souther Salazar's show at the Johnathan Levine Gallery. It's phenomenal. I know Souther has been working on it a long time and it shows. Absolutely gorgeous all around. I marvel at how he takes things like lightbulbs and transforms them into something poetic; and the larger pieces are some of the best I've seen from him. For those not in NY you can check it out at the link above but the scale of some of the pieces is amazing, as well as seeing how Souther will cram a space with work from the ceiling to the corners of the room. He might not need the extra shout out but I found walking around that room really inspiring. Here's my favorite piece.



I brought my camera but forgot my battery, but the GRNY show was exactly what I like about the store so much in New York. Just a lot of great people hanging around talking. Getting Anders Nilsen to explain his Wolverine and Batman piece was cool, and I was really impressed by R Kikuo Johnson's stuff especially one with a lion carrying a woman away.

For all that my favorite moment of the night was getting a cab ride and talking about Harry Potter. Seriously.
