Frauenfelder, Sol and Estrada at Roq La Rue

Amy Sol

Roq La Rue Gallery in Seattle, WA just opened a big group show called "A Cabinet of Natural Curiosities" (same name as one of my favorite books). Here are a few stand-out pieces from the show. I think they may still be available, too, if you hurry. There are many different stylistic interpretations of nature in this show. Have a look (click preview):

This has been an exciting month for me with three very special "fine art products" being released: my new t-shirt, a special framed print of my painting "The Banana Eater" by Pressure Printing and, last but not least, a brand new Tickler Uke Number Two designed by me and built by luthier, Lou Reimuller (due out in 2009). And, I added a music player to my new website and I will rotate a new Hokum Scorcher song every Sunday nite. Don't forget the "Deep Pop" show at Iona College, New Rochelle, NY. It continues until Feb. 21, 2008. I have a painting in that show and I will also be showing at Ad Hoc Art, Brooklyn, NY in July.

Skin as Soft as Peaches

This is incredible and beautiful - another instance in which art and hokum come together. Pop surrealism, too. "Ella" is a 12-meter-long sculpture of a nude woman made from peaches, as part of a promotional campaign for an Australian skin care product company. The site has a video about its design and construction. Link
Thanks again, boingboing!

More Adventures Starring "Pappy"

Have a look at Ape Lad's newest little film,
These beautiful and very funny little films have been shown on boingboingTV,
where you can find an archive of them. I tried to embed the player on this blog, but it was too big or something. So, just follow the links.
