I am happy to announce that I was accepted into a brand spanking new artist studio residency program in Denver called Redline. This week I finished moving into a large, beautiful studio, as did about 12 other lucky artists. The residency will last 3 years. Besides the artist studios, the Redline building also has gallery spaces (PS1 of NYC is doing the first show), a library, and educational/community areas. The whole place is gorgeous - one of the most pristine art spaces I have ever worked within, and the artists/persons involved are top-notch folks. Photos to come. I really look forward to being part of this nascent art community. I have no idea whether having a killer studio space will cause me to make more 'offline' type work or not. However as of right now I do have ambitions of using the studio space/time as a 50-50 split between new-media work and painting. (btw... the above screen-painting-video thing I made a few months back is coincidentally a long 'red line')
