A visit to Adam Simon's Studio at PS 122
Maybe it was the heat, and right now it's about time because I have to catch the 8:15 am en route to Hudson, New York to install the Portrait pop-up show that opens this weekend, so this will be brief but about looking. Below are views of Adam Simon's PS 122 residency.

more close ups
another one gets specially pulled out for this viewer.
The studio table.
The drawings.
"Steal This Art," a project now not so much about stealing as about desire and attainability, access, specifically public access.
Off to the train station.

Through the heat, I hear sound
Th other night, I went on a sound tour. Lead by Todd Shalom of Elastic City (what a fabulous concept). It changed my whole outlook, even though the city is loud, when instructed to focus solely on sound, it was if I was walking through a veil of silence with each sound projected like an image in front of me.
I activated the curtains, and pulled back a tone or vibration. I created an echo. Everyone should do this tour or work on isolating, curating their own soundscapes.
Below, Brooke David's red shoes and Todd leading our silence through the heat.

Time to get back on the train, art viewing on the L, M, F and N trains.
Lined along the wall Adam Simon's paintings produced with stencils, which reminds me that he has an opening tonight at PS 122, from 6 pm to 9 pm, linking the invite here.
PS 122 LOCATED AT 9TH STREET, EAST OF 1ST AVENUE, 3RD RED DOOR.
I'm wondering why so many of us artists use stencils? So let's keep looking...a few weeks I visited Sheryl Oppenheim and she also paints with stencils, below a view at some her stenciled based work.
Their studios, organized by Chashama are at the Brooklyn Army Terminal in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
A quick glimpse of Paul D'Agostino's studio:
Sheryl's studio is next to Dre Bregart's studio. Here are Sheryl and Dre, with Dre sitting and beading (not stenciling) compositions.
From Sunset Part back to Bushwick, via elevated tracks:
A quick glimpse of Paul D'Agostino's studio:
and the last Storefront space show curated by Jules de Balincourt (a video tour by James Kalm explains it well).
Time to get back on the train, art viewing on the L, M, F and N trains. Next up the 2 to Chambers.

Getting ready for a pop-up portrait show in Hudson, NY, opens 7/30
See the space below...now imagine a pop-up gallery, I can see it and am seeing portraits.
Beautiful picture of Eileen Cohen, mother of the proprietor .
We'll clear out all the furniture and hang and install art from 18 artists (and counting, it keeps going up as we add more work)

(ya gotta have an Elvis)
The two portraits above are good representations of two ends of this portrait exhibition. I am helping Scot Cohen to put together a pop-up portrait show in Hudson, New York to coincide with NADA Hudson, an upstate New York art fair happening on the weekend of July 30 and 31st. Below is a list of artists and a simple summary of what we decided to guide us. What really propelled us forward with this show idea was that we love art and why not in this space and then the weekend presented itself and now we are excitedly running around. I'll post more in the coming weeks.
