Giant Robot Store and GR2 News

Giant Robot 2 Opening saturday night. It’s getting nuts in LA, tons of art show openings all over the place. You name it, there’s probably an art show there. People are having art shows in spots where there’s no space for an art show. It’s just getting nuts. What can we do, but hopefully provide a decent space for a person? Maybe our reputation complete with a magazine, and being one of the first helps us a lot. Maybe not. Either way, having a great friend Souther Salazar show is an honor. I’m proud of him all around.

I figure our audience and the JANM...

Souther’s come a long way, and that’s a great thing. The thing is, whoever buys one of these, they won’t get them until later January. These works will go into the JANM Biennale show. I figure our audience and the JANM audience will be quite different, so this will work nicely. Excited!

I picked up Souther Salazar's pieces for tonites show in the rain. On the way there, I saw 3 car accidents, one car was upside down on the 110. I saw some ambulances driving, and I finally get there. Souther looked dead, but the pieces look great. Amazing work. Of course, right? I'll just show you one for now. When I was leaving Souther said it, "Make it Real." I'll try. On the way back, smooth...
