Exploring My Options
Beau Chamberlain employs acrylic on panel to produce utterly amazing atmospheres, blurring the line between fantasy and reality. Fragments of flora and fauna seem to mingle, burst, and soar in these imagined ecosystems.
Chamberlain lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
Manny G
Although we aren’t hiring here at Beautiful/Decay, we wanted to share Manny G‘s portfolio with you all. Navigating through media seamlessly, this recent CalArts graduate pretty much does it all. Whether it’s transforming a found book inside and out, illustrating Chewbacca with only one intense image-making technique, or revealing the cuter (?!) side of sex, Manny G delivers visual feasts.
R. Crumb’s Underground at CSUF Grand Central Art Center
R. Crumb’s Underground
Curated by Todd Hignite
July 11-August 16, 2009
July 11th launches Grand Central Art Center‘s opening reception for the Yerba Buena’s Center for the Arts traveling exhibit, “R.Crumb’s Underground.” This exhibition salutes San Francisco treasure Robert Crumb with an eclectic mix of early work, collaborations, and the world premiere of his “spool” drawings. Universally acknowledged as the founder of the underground comic scene, Crumb gained cult popularity for his pioneering Zap Comix and stardom with the Terry Zwigoff documentary, Crumb. The YBCA traveling exhibit also shows how his work has blossomed in philosophical complexity, highlighting his collaborative work, including intimate confessions produced with wife Aline Kominsky-Crumb.

Daniel Eatock
Daniel Eatock, AKA the co-creator of indexhibit has some interesting participatory projects of his own. This project, “No photographs” asks that people submit photos of signs telling them not to take photographs.
Grant Hamilton
Grant Hamilton has this amazing polaroid series aptly titled “Geometries.” I’m totally loving his clean, simple, and clever compositions.
Gareth Owen Lloyd
A bunch of cool works by Gareth Owen Lloyd. I especially like this series from winter 2007, and how the light background is able to reveal what is in the sculpture of negatives… a lot to look at!
Conrad Kofron
Born in Port Alto, Texas, Conrad Kofron went on to study at the Pratt Institute, and graduated in 2005 with a BFA in Painting. Aside from painting, he also photographs, draws, illustrates, and practices printmaking. Kofron seems to depict absence and memory through fluttery white brushstrokes.
Kofron currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
