Surrealism in September
Southern California is hosting two art shows including 3 of my favorite painters.
Opening this friday at the Santa Monica Museum of Art is Enigma Variations: Philip Guston and Giorgio de Chirico. I had never realized how similar these two artists were but evidently De Chirico was a great influence to Philip Guston. Both have been a big influence on me. I'll be trying to make the opening being held this friday between 7 and 9.

If you'd like to take a trip out of town down to San Diego and visit the SD Museum of Art and check out the show, Transmission: The Art of Matta and Gordon Matta-Clark. Matta is a rather under-rated surrealist who I only know a limited amount about. 10 years of living in LA and having still not made it down to San Diego, I think this show might be enough incentive.

Gordon Matta-Clark did a cool project where he sawed a suburban house in 1/2. Don't know what his other work is like, but I've referenced that project quite a bit over the years. Let me know how it is.
