01 Feb OC Weekly in Turmoil? Commie Girl Gone!
Last week Will Swaim editor of the OC Weekly since it’s inception in 1995 resigned and now I just discovered that Rebecca Schoenkopf aka Commie Girl has resigned effective immediately. This is quite a blow to the local art community. Say what you will about the Weekly, they were the only local paper that consistently visited and wrote about local art exhibits (on a weekly basis). I’m especially bummed because the Weekly, via Rebecca has always shown support (even when she didn’t like the shows) of what we were doing at the Office, starting with sending a writer out to the space during our first show. In this age of drastically decreasing visual arts writing this is quite a blow. Good luck in your new endeavors Rebecca. We will miss you.
