Blind Pilot: Interview - You take a flute, I'll take another person.
Blind Pilot have just entered the Billboard charts, had a #1 day on Itunes sales and got picked up by a major act, to open. Rebellious noise teens, indie fans and mid-life Mothers alike, unite in appreciation. Their CD is classy, their first video oozes authority, even I give a grudging nod. Yet they are back on their bikes, a 1000 mile+ cycling tour, playing for tips. I decided to dig a little deeper into the core of the band - the duo that expands whenever possible to six or more - and found personalities to match the charm of the music: read more

Šolman’s "The Heart of Perspective, The Making of the Film" Concludes April 5th at UCCS
Dario Šolman’s The Heart of Perspective, The Making of the Film is an ongoing project begun in 2001 that consists of studies and tests for a film that will never be made. Šolman has stated, “When we use the word ‘film,’ we think of a possible film, a hypothetic interplay of image, sound and text. To avoid further confusion, we should think of it as film without a film. In other words, a film space that is not contained in a film shell.” Instead, Šolman uses the terms Cinemation or Secondary-Cinema to refer to his practice. He allows the evidences of the film - the tests, the texts, and the research - to define what this non-existent film is or can be. read more

NYU's Grey Art Gallery Exhibition Highlights Early Works of Diebenkorn
Diebenkorn in New Mexico is the first museum examination of a seminal moment in the career of artist Richard Diebenkorn when, between 1950 and 1952, he was enrolled in the graduate fine arts department at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. Supported by the G.I. Bill and distanced from the art worlds of both East and West coasts, Diebenkorn produced astonishingly mature and beautiful works that have, until now, remained relatively unknown. On view at the Grey Art Gallery at New York University from January 25 through April 5, 2008, the show includes some 40 paintings and drawings from museums and private collections, as well as from the Diebenkorn estate, many of which are being exhibited together for the first time.
