Yeller Show Continues

If you missed the Yeller show last Friday, you missed an amazing set by The Mattson 2, but there's still a chance to see the work in the physical and digital form.  Yeller is holding gallery hours at MXD830 (830 25th street) this week and next week from 12-6 PM, and also have most prints up for sale on yellerstudio.com.  You can also see photos from the opening reception on the Yeller Flickr page.

Kinsee Morlan : End of Trail

Kinsee Morlan is moving to Colorado, leaving her beloved border town, her post at citybeat and a large group of admirers behind. Kinsee has had an immense impact on San Diego and Tijuana's creative communities and will definitely be missed. We are working on a featured interview with the journalist / curator, but for now check out the final post on her blog, Tijuana Tales.

The Da Vinci Experience

I had the parentals in town for the weekend, and Sunday we made it over to the Air & Space museum for The Da Vinci Experience. Using his sketchbook and notes, the curators of this exhibit recreated 50+ of Da Vinci's ideas and inventions. Da Vinci's diversity was amazing, creating solutions for transportion, defense, irrigation, and so on. Most of his ideas were so ahead of their time, that they were denied by the royal court or whoever he was presenting to. Da Vinci's 'Air Screw' or chopper, pictured below, was the beginning thoughts behind a Helicopter.

Below is the re-created version at the exhibit.

After reading and experiencing all of his innovation, there is a hall of his paintings as well (not originals). By that time, I had forgotten that he was a renowned artist and musician, a true renaissance man. My mind was mush leaving the museum. It is impossible to fathom how productive, innovative and diverse Leonardo was. The Da Vinci Experience will be at the Air & Space Museum the remainder of this year, and I highly recommend checking it out.

New Signs of Life on Ray St.

After a six-month hiatus from Ray @ Night, I showed up in January for Eliot Greenwald's closing reception. I was excited to see some new life on the street, with the addition of Enclothe and Milo Shoes / Gallery.  Here are a few images from the evening.

Looking back on these pictures, I really wish I bought those shoes... After Ray St., we hiked up University to check out the giant floppy disc curtain at Art Produce.

The Curtain was made by Richard Gleaves, and can be seen until Feb. 22. Thanks Carly for the awesome pictures.
