i walk the line opens at umd


[click image to enlarge each]

I Walk the Line opened at the University of Maryland on Thursday evening. I was so pleased with the way the exhibition looked. Mary Early exhibited four recent wood and beeswax sculptures, Linn Meyers showed two drawings on mylar and made a huge new drawing on the gallery wall, and I was represented with two large works from late '06, and four brand new small paintings.

Coming up is a podcast interview with myself and the other two artists Linn Meyers and Mary Early, produced by Li Koo from UMd. Stay tuned for information on that.

I hope to write more about this exhibition soon. But in the meantime I'd like to thank a few people: Jeff Rhodes and Brian Sykes at the University of Maryland kept all the details in order, handled and installed my work expertly, and made everything feel like a breeze to me, though I'm sure there were some real chores on their end. Li Koo was curious, enthusiastic, and a delight to talk with for the podcast interview. Jonathan Walz curated the exhibition, brought the three artists together, and conceptualized the show beautifully. Thanks all of you.

Hi Douglas.
I like these bar colored things. They look to be very clear, clean, and open some space. They pop!
