East-side Exhibits

Robin — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:53:52 +0000

Just sent these and some other prints of to Rahway for a show at the Arts Guild of New Jersey, called Road Trip: My America. The show will be up from February 12- March 12. Looks like there is going to be some rad work. Keep an eye out, I’ll be making another east coast appearance at a show later this year with Rose Nestler at Cuchifritos Gallery in New York City.

Just over the state line

Deterred by hail the size of nickels, I had to turn back from my pilgrimage to the Spiral Jetty. Instead I head for the Bonneville Salt flats, though the storm keeps me from exploring them fully. I decide to stay in Wendover on the Utah/Nevada state line. The Utah side of Wendover doesn’t have much beyond an abandoned and decrepit airport (though several of the buildings are home to the Center for Land Use Interpretations residency facility).

West Wendover – just over the Nevada state line – primarily consists of casinos gradually getting seedier as you drive west out of town. The Montego Bay really fulfills all expectations of ostentatious neon with it’s interior decor.

Hole in The Rock

Just south of Moab, Utah Albert and Gladys Christansen blasted their home in the base of a sandstone rock formation. Now a roadside tourist attraction in the most classic sense, the 12 minute tour through the house allows visitors to view the couples handiwork, including devotional paintings, coke-bottle lapidary scam-gems and some truly tragic taxidermy.

Arcosanti

I was fortunate enough to stay at Arcosanti – The experimental urban design and architecture laboratory that is a functioning community. Based on the arcological concepts of Paolo Soleri, the site has been continually under construction since the 1970′s.

Cliff Dwellers

After several solo days in the desert. I met up with my friends Rachelle & Carrie in La Bajada, NM. The next day we went down to camp in the Gila Wilderness. Nearby in lush canyon we visited some ancient cliff dwellings.
