Les Barany’s Carnivora

I’m stoked to be part of Les Barany’s ambitious Carnivora book and traveling art show– The subject of this project is “the dark art of automobiles”– The Carnivora book will be published by Scapegoat Publishing and the art show will debut January 12, 2007 during the International Auto Show at the ©Pop Gallery in Detroit– The roster of 92 artists includes H.R. Giger, Anthony Ausgang, Robert Crumb, Frank Kozik, Coop, Glenn Barr, Mark Motherbaugh, Stanley Mouse, Zdzislaw Beksinski, and Trevor Brown– I’ll have 3 pieces in the book, and 2 pieces in the art show–

Back off, man! This technology is very cool and so is Mr. Bohonus–

Filthy Beasts Au Go Go

The “Filthy Beasts” show at the Fantagraphics Bookstore was a blast– A packed house heard a rockin’ set by The DT’s and checked out the art, books, and records for sale– A staggering-drunk indian named Chief Swimming Eagle bewildered everyone (see above photo)– Some hype for the show: Kelly-O’s blog write-up for The Stranger, Kelly O’s YouTube video interview, and a Flickr.com photo set by Fantagraphics staffer Mike Baehr
