WooHoo

ArtForum-Ad.jpg
I'm looking at the advertisement for my show in LA by Chac Mool, it's on page 81, my first full page in ArtForum. I'm stunned.

Thanks, Estella!

I like especially, that Francis Bacon is on the cover of the accompanying Book Forum. I trace my work to several roots, chief among which in tandem with Goya is Bacon.

I remember the show of his work at the Los Angeles County Museum. Standing before his work, I remember the revelation of being able to count his moves: the architectural interior box, the schematic lines, the smooth colored areas, the smooth torsional blends, the impasto smear, the print (of a shoe?), the stamped circles, the typographic rubs, the spray, the fling, the bare canvas...

Good company, good fortune.
