I must urgently call attention to ChanuIKEA, a performance art piece by Brian Feldman which took place the evening of December 28th, 2008, the eight day of Chanukah, at Orlando’s IKEA store.

My project in painting, drawing and cut-paper work, for the last three years, has been a thorough searching of occasional epiphanies of form and scale. Once in a while I get a flash of some vague form or color, in a dream, a daydream or in another work of art or design, and I try [...]

New Paintings
This Saturday night at 7pm (2/2/08)
(show runs through 2/29/08)
Lots of brand new work no one has seen yet, plus a few
oldies-but-goodies. There was a cancellation at Stardust for February

So come on out Saturday night and hang out, have [...]
