Come to our gallery!
Not many people know this, but I am the art curator for a gallery/music collective dubed "ISP" in downtown East Atlanta. If you're in the area, come check out our most recent pieces for sale and support the local art community!
I'm working on an official site right now just to focus on the art, but in the meantime, please email me if you're interested in any of the pieces.
Cidade dos Homens
Recently I've been hooked on the mini-series City of Men (in Portuguese: Cidade dos Homens). Sharing the same directors as City of God, some actors, and the setting of the Brazilian favela (slum) the story follows thirteen year-old best friends Acerelo (Douglas Silva) and Laranjinha (Darlan Cunha). The series are now available on DVD. Also check out the interview from the BBC with Kátia Lund, director of the series.

Drama R.I.P.
So I was exploring my local art gallery Young Blood Gallery yesterday and stumbled across this art magazine The Drama. So I gobble up the zine, and it quickly tops my other favorite art magazine, Art Prostitute as number one. So today I pop over to The Drama's website to find out to my dismay, #9 will to be their very last issue! Very sad, and wish you guys luck! Pop over to their store to pick up some great art/prints/issues/books/etc before they run out... it's a gold mine.

"Penguins have this typecast of being cute little animals in today's world. Well forget what you know about this adorable penguin and watch how they vandalize a couple of farm silos and threaten Santa Clause."

Check out this amazing gallery from xRez, who are exploring new creative opportunites made available by the advent of extremely high-resolution gigapixel digital photography.
