“Roberts & Tilton is pleased to present Wild Thing, an exhibition of works comprised of various approaches to what is considered wild and untamable, yet simultaneously conceptual and laborious. The works included in Wild Thing are not the embodiment or exacting replica of any one “wild thing,” but of any and all things considered “wild.” By presenting a selection of international and local artists, we come to realize that no distance or variation in culture has the ability to jeopardize the absolute integrity or the personal experience of what each viewer might consider “wild.”
Wild Things
Opening reception: Saturday, July 10th, 6-8pm
Roberts & Tilton
5801 Washington Blvd. Culver City, 90232
Show runs from July 10 through August 14, 2010
Drove back late last night from an amazing San Francisco food-fueled (Molinari’s, Pizzeria Delfina) shoe and shirt-hunting (Upper Playground, Shoebiz) art-viewing and buying (Coverage on Le Merde at Super 7 coming soon!) weekend getaway with friends (old, new and bunny-centric) in my former SF neighborhoods only to come back completely drained late last night to my trusty Los Feliz hood. Yet still, the price of a good time in SF is always worth the trip up north.
About the four different covers (above) from Keith:
“For the art in the magazine, we selected many different visual creators to show us their unique perspective on what a neighborhood is. Valeriya Volkova (Brooklyn, NY), Lorin Brown (Los Angeles, CA), Miss Lotion(Copenhagen) and Public School (Austin, TX) all created covers for GOOD’s first multiple-cover issue. You can learn a bit more about the covers here. And they are all available as prints from Society6.“
And a bit of the Scharwath golden touch thrown in for good measure (pun intended).
“I made this edition of 20 prints for Aaron Rose’s Simulacrum show that is happening next week in Sydney, Australia at the famous Monster Children gallery. I’m making a few of the prints available for purchase. Skull Print: $40 + $5 shipping in the USA.”
Also…a Busy-Being pop up shop with curated artist made goods will be on hand with a porton of the proceeds going to support for the cause.
