The piece that is shown in the post below “Oh won’t you be my neighbor,” is currently hung at the Red Door Gallery in Oakland, CA.

Check out there blog here for a little bit of an inside look at what its like to start a collective. I’m a member, so I will probably be ranting and raving about it as time goes by.

October’s show is a paired show I’m planning with Heidi Forrsell. The title is “Look at me looking at you,” and studies the obsession with both the self and the other. The RDG is in a pretty big warehouse, so there is also what is called an Outer Space that Heidi and I will be curating and hanging work relating to the subject of “Self and Other.” Should be fun.

I was out of town for the sneak preview opening for the gallery (that’s what I hung Mister Rogers in), but will be there for the Grand Opening on October 3rd! I am learning just how much work goes into being part of a collaboration and running a gallery. I think, in the end, it will all be worth it. No matter what, I know I am learning so so so very much.
