I noticed the work of Aaron Curry at Micheal Werner in New York and found what I saw online to be tough and compelling. The references to cartoons and postmodern comics, cave art and freewheeling visual connections looked very creative and smart. If you have a chance take a look online and see what you think. He uses the photos of the walls of his studio and sets cutout Calderish shapes and paint-smattered image in front of them. Nice feel to what I can see.
For your own work this week try a justaposition of studio spatters and markings against shapes and drawings, perhaps what you drew from the stilllife of last week or the model from the week before. Combine and elaborate your personal viewpoint into a dense insistence on yourself. See you next week, john.
