Thanksgiving Roundup

I spent a lovely Thanksgiving holiday this past week in Los Angeles where I had the opportunity to visit Stas Orlovski's studio (above). Orlovski's upcoming exhibition of new work opens on March 24, 2011 at Mixed Greens.


Just before I left for the holiday, Mixed Greens celebrated the opening of Alexander Reyna's window installation LoveHateNow. Above: Heather, Zander and Steven check out the multimedia windows from street level on a freezing day.


Here's a closer look at the Duratrans and video-projection. It's best viewed from street level between the hours of 3-6pm (when it's darker outside).

Friday is Fun Day

This FUN DAY photo was sent it to us by world-traveler, Rob Carter. Rob did want to make clear that he was not participating in the above "event", but was merely an observer. I felt it fitting to post today since most of the outfits above look a lot like the costumes that Ricky's is selling for Halloween.

Fun Day reading list:

Maybe not such a good idea to have a wedding ceremony in a language that you don't understand. Same rule applies for tattoos.

Wynnnnnnnnn.

Exorcism kit at auction?
