New York New York 2007

I was selected by Jessica Morgan (Curator of Contemporary Art, Tate Modern), James Rondeau (Curator of Contermporary Art, Art Institute of Chicago), and Steven Zevitas (Publisher, New American Paintings) as a finalist for myartspace's "New York, New York 2007" competition. Although I was not ultimately picked to be one of the four winners, my work will be published in the show's catalog.

Claremont Museum of Art

Just a short note to let you all know that I have installed a remixed version of Caryatid in the offices at the Claremont Museum of Art. They have a great show up now called "Ephemeral: Explorations in Light" that's worth checking out.

I am also donating work to their upcoming art auction "Velocity" - I'll post more info on that later.
