Saturday Night Live

by | Feb 5, 2006 | Musings

Damn I’m tired. Mark Dutcher and David Ross came down from LA for a Saturday night tour of the OC art scene and to meet up with their friend Sandow Birk. We ran all over the place and had a great time. I think they were impressed with the level of activity down here. Nice job people. Anyway here are some photos:

Snl1_1 First stop was the Shed to catch Jocelyn Schneider Foye’s performance, Wrestling with Clay. It was a good time.

Snl2 OC Weekly writer Rebecca Schoenkopf taking in the match.

Snl3 Jeff Foye filming the activities.

Snl4 Then it was off to OCMA to catch the Landscape Confection opening. Good show, Amy Sillman’s work was probably my favorite. Pictured is Fabrice Gygi’s work.

Snl5 Mark & David about to start their own wrestling match on the Fabrice Gygi piece.

Snl6 Ran into artist & Brea Gallery Curator Travis Collinson w/ Mark. Look for Travis at the Office in April.

Snl7 From L to R. Richard Chang art writer for the OC Register, forgot his name, the famous Ed Giardina & Darlene DeAngelo Curator for the HB Art Center.

Snl8 Then off to Santa Ana starting with Beyond Borders at spaceonspurgeon.

Snl9 Then it was off to UNIONartspace. Work by Lisa Lo Russo.

Snl10 Lisa Lo Russo.

Snl14 Then off to GCAC to catch Sandow Birk’s show. Need to go back when less crowded. Lots to see here. Mark w/Sandow.

Snl12 Ran into SqueezeOC writer Jit Fong Chin.

Last stop was to say hi to Dirk Petchul at the new Santora space the Seed.

The OC Art Blog was created in 2004 as a way to build community and promote the marginalized but dynamic Orange County art scene.
