From my friend Splicer’s blog.

I’m going to try to make the opening tonight, otherwise I’ll be there tomorrow.

Splicer and I go way back. He’s someone who knew me first as “Poindexter”…

Mark your calendars and get ready to come on down to Open Studios at the Art Explosion. The essential details follow:

Preview Thursday April 23rd 5pm–8pm
Opening Reception Friday April 24th 7–11pm
Open Studios Sat & Sun April 25th & 26th 12–5pm

Between the three Art Explosion locations there are over 100 artists opening their doors so that you can come and see how we work, see new artwork that hasn’t yet gone to galleries, and even works in progress. The artists will be available to answer questions, sell their work, and just chat.

There are three locations for Art Explosion:

2425 17th Street @ Potrero (really @ Hampshire)
744 Alabama Street @ 19th Street
2345 Harrison Street @ 19th Street

But of course, I’m not unbiased—if you can make it only to one of these locations, please come by the 17th Street location, and drop in to see me in Studio 13. This will be my first Open Studios in my new solo studio space, and I will have new pieces, both Luxographic prints and pen and ink drawings, on display and for sale.

Still, don’t come just for me. You won’t want to miss the new work of the other Art Explosion artists. Since I work here I’ve gotten to see a lot of the new work and I’m very impressed by the show we’ll have this Spring. It’s a great group of artists here and a tremendous range of styles and philosophies.

I look forward to seeing those of you I already know and meeting those of you who I don’t!
