Off Subject: Marvin Lipofsky

Lipofsky is an internationally regarded glass sculptor who headed the glass department at California College of the Arts for 20 years. I came across his work in a gallery downtown San Francisco, and I must say, it's breathe taking in person. I just love the color and the shape.

Off Subject: Laurel Roth

I'm pretty bummed that I didn't make it to Roth's last show in San Francisco.  It would have been awesome to see these pieces up close.  I guess stopping by the gallery might be a good idea, they probably have a piece or two still up.  Anywho, aren't they wild? Walnut, gold leaf, and swarovski- damn!

Stillwell 2009: An annual jurried exhibition of student work

 

 

 

So the Stillwell is the annual juried art show at SFSU. I didn't submit anything this year because I was unaware of the show until a week or two before the submission deadline. Definitely not enough time to get any work together to submit. And after the apartment fire the March before last, I don't have any work that I am confident in sharing with people. Enough said... there were some cool pieces overall. A couple paintings I really liked, a couple sculptures that were really interesting, and our grad student Shenny Cruces had a couple pieces too (pictured).  And I looooooove her work.  Love, love, love, love.  So I took pictures to share with you. Neato, huh?
