May 12, 2007: I updated the site a bit. I put some preliminary photos and drawings up in a new gallery to go with the "Suburban Homes" theme from the Bio-Fucked show. I also put up a Flash based intro to that gallery with chopped up text from the statement. You can check it out here.

May 12, 2007 - June 3, 2007: Two things: I met some cool people in San Antonio at the opening at vtrue and I wanted to give a heads up about their upcoming shows. First there is "The Postcard Diaries of Mark Mothersbaugh (of DEVO)" at FL!GHT Gallery at 1906 South Flores in S.A. and the next show I heard about is on May 18th at Bihl Haus Arts, 2803 Fredericksburg called "Artist's Proof: Five Artists Pushing Print". Met some cool people down there. Justin Parr runs FL!GHT and has a cool piece in the "Bio-Fucked" show, Kristy Perez is one of the artists doing the "Artist's Proof", and I also enjoyed talking to Judith Cottrell and Gary Smith at vtrue. So, if anybody's going to San Antone...

May 11, 2007 - June 2, 2007: "Bio-Fucked" at vtrue artspace in San Antonio. I have a sculptural installation in this group show. Come on down to the opening on May 11 from 6pm to 10pm or so. Here is the e-vite and press release, and here is a picture or two of the unfinished work. I'll explain later and create a section under the "Galleries" portion of the site.

May 12, 2007: I had a little fun collaborating and doing some cd art for the band Mandible for their new record. Check Almost There Records for more current info. I hear May 12th for the cd release with a release party at the Hole in the Wall on May 18th. I also hear that you can buy the tunes on iTunes soon if not already.

March 1, 2007 - April 15, 2007: "Texas Biennial 2007" I had to mention this. I don't have any work in it but there is some great Texas art on display. You can find out more at the Texas Biennial website. William Hundley has some photos at the Bolm Studios site.
