Luke's Last

Here we are. The last day of Luke Chueh's Inferno. Tons of people have been walking through, and we want to thank Luke for creating such an extensive and progressive show. We've loved growing with him since 2004 and this show was no exception!

For the last two days, we've had some super secret filming going on in the gallery which included Brandi Milne, Dabs & Myla and eight hours of no break live painting. Sounds like a scene from the movie Saw, but it was a pretty awesome experience. I'll let you know, when I know more about when/where you can see it.

So now we make way for Alex Pardee's insane Halloween visions, which will open this coming Tuesday, with an opening reception from 7-11 PM. Alex will be arriving into LA tomorrow and will be in attendance all night Tuesday (this time no homeless cutting dudes invited! Google away, if you don't know that Pardee story!) We've all been very secret about Alex's new work, so here's your first, and possibly only, preview...



This is one of Alex's new demented characters he created for a painting, which will all tie together with a story and tale he created specifically for this show. I'm a bit scared. This show is going to be epic.

And today marks a pretty important day for Crazy4Cult fans who have been waiting patiently for the second coming of Jeff Boyes' Professional print. We have the second edition, now with new colors, as an edition of 33.

For reals?

Now I KNOW you shouldn't miss this Wednesday night's "Inferno" solo show from Luke Chueh. He's delivering more than double the paintings you (and I) were expecting.

Counting blessings,

Uh-oh

The Evolution of Southpaw will be available as a set, and also individually, but different sizes and edition numbers for those options. Also, the set is much larger than you'd think. Not mini-prints.

To The 9's

It's that time of year again. Here at the LA Gallery we're getting ready for a Luke Chueh solo show, basically a bi-annual tradition here at G1988: LA that we're oh so very happy to partake in.



Not much has been revealed about "Inferno," the cryptic exhibit set to open on Sept. 9th (09/09/09), other than Luke's revelation that the show will be his reinterpretation of Dante's Inferno and the 9 rings of Hell. He's also been pretty vocal about this show being the start of what he hopes will be a shift of focus in his work, attempting to create full scenes, evolve and create his most complex, and grueling, pieces yet. And I've been just as much in the dark this year, so it was an obvious jump for joy moment when Luke sent me some teaser-ific images of 3 different pieces, focusing in on mostly details. It ain't giving us much, but what he is giving - is pretty amazing.







Luke's hell actually looks worse than real hell. I know because I've seen it - when I paid $8 to see "G.I. Joe."

I can tell you this: there will be a print set available that people will want to freak out about, and each image from the set will be available individually as well, just with some different specifics. Don't be "left" out.
