LOOK INTO MY OWL

It begins. We have landed in Miami for the art fairs. After some culture shock and a dip in the ocean, we are ready to tackle the art. Updates will occur as energy allows.

We are on our way to Miami Beach for the art fairs. Keep an eye out for upcoming coverage.

Looking forward to catching up with some old friends.

The latest show at NOWhere Limited is a fun and eclectic “salon-style” exhibit of paintings and mixed media pieces by some of Colorado’s most exciting artists.

“When Titles Fail” brings together work from Heather Dalton, Chris Huang, Max Kauffman, Craig Koch, Scott Lickstein, Ian Millard, Angela Oaks, Maggie Ross, Elisha Sarti and Greg Willson.

Most of the artists involved in this exhibition have several pieces on display. In an effort to maximize the dynamic of the show we chose to dispense the work throughout the gallery instead of segregating by artist.

The response to this arrangement has been very strong. We have found that visitors quickly discern differences in style by finding something they react to and visually scanning the room for more from that artist.

The pieces from “When Titles Fail” will be available on line at this link tomorrow, July 15th 2009 at 2pm Mountain.

Yesterday Maggie Ross transformed the front display window of our gallery, NOWhere Limited into a camera obscura. “Imposing Views” was a one day event in which visitors were offered the rare opportunity to have their portrait taken inside a camera.

The front window was blocked off except for a small hole which was covered with a lens. The inverted image of our town was projected through the pinhole to a screen inside the gallery. Participants interacted with the camera inside and out with interesting results.

Our models showed excellent poise as exposure time for some of these photos was more than two minutes. Thanks to everyone that came out to bear their souls as part of this interactive installation.

Steve Horvath of D&L Screenprinting in Seattle makes some of the finest prints that you will find anywhere. Our gallery, NOWhere Limited recently got together with D&L to produce an exclusive print for Mark Mothersbaugh. More on that release coming soon. D&L was nice enough to give us a rare photographic glimpse into their process.

D&L has done prints for some of the most influential rock poster artists working today including Jermaine Rogers, Justin Hampton, Emek, Rob Jones, Todd Slater and many more.

The studio churns out an incredible amount of work while maintaining the highest standard of quality. The gallery is pleased to be working with D&L and hope that it is the beginning of a long relationship.

This past weekend we opened a solo show of Mark Mothersbaugh’s rugs at NOWhere Limited. The special AP edition rugs are available in limited supply at this link.

Keep an eye out for the show report, coming soon to Mutato Visual. Also check out the great article that Vince Darcangelo wrote for the Boulder Daily Camera. The piece also ran on the front page of the Colorado Daily.

I love the quiet before the storm. One of the special privileges of owning a gallery is being able to spend time with the work without interruption. Experiencing the exhibit as a whole has, I feel, led me deeper into the world and mind of Mark Mothersbaugh. It has been a pleasure talking with everyone about these amazing rugs. The overwhelming sentiment has been that they “Really tie the room together.”

Mark Mothersbaugh, still from video chat at NOWhere Limited, 2009.

Mark was working on a project in Vancouver but was able to carve out some time in his insanely busy schedule to talk to visitors via live video conference. He entertained a wide array of questions and proceeded to give us views of his hotel room, including the contents of the mini-bar. Mark also taunted DEVO fans with a demo disc for the first studio album in nearly twenty years. The album is due to be released this Fall. Keep in touch with Club Devo for details.

Thanks to everyone that kept the gallery packed this weekend. Special thanks to Mark’s representative Michael Pilmer for traveling to Colorado. We had a great time, looking forward seeing you again. And to all of the friends of NOWhere Limited that have come through again and again.
