In The News...

Officially one of our first days off in the New Year, I'm letting this Tuesday be pretty lazy, but wanted to post up three of our favorite press mentions for the [adult swim] show from G1988 (Melrose). It seems to be everywhere and we're so thankful for all the coverage...



LA Weekly wrote up my favorite explanation of the show, for sure. Growing up, reading the LA Weekly, being featured on their site with such a lengthy article is always an honor. Click the picture above to read it.



io9 joined in on the action and gave you an overview of some of their favorite pieces. Click above to see.



We'll be back in the galleries tomorrow, back on the grind. getting ready for new shows in February, one that just might give you a Kill Screen.

Geeeeeeez soooooon

It's officially Friday and that marks the opening reception for "3G" - Gallery1988:LA's newest exhibit. This time we partnered with Philadelphia artist collective The Autumn Society, and each artist in the show had to do one piece each, inspired by the movies Ghostbusters, Gremlins and Goonies (respectively - and respectfully). Basically, it's insane.

Some of the best pieces in the show prints, that have editions of less than 20. Since we won't be pre-selling any of the prints, and the phone calls and emails have become uncountable, we're telling you once again, the line for the show starts at 5 PM. Just make room for the Ecto-1, cause that's coming. And so is a Ghostbuster. Rumors of a Goonie, and a certain Gremlins director, have been whispered, but we'll have to see, won't we.



Thanks to our friends at Thrillist, for really hyping the show up o their front page and daily email. You can read the article by CLICKING HERE.

Gonna be a lot of fun, so don't miss out, Friday night, 7-10 PM. 3G!!!!

Things have been crowded here at "Under The Influence: Masters of the Universe," with tons of people coming and in of the gallery everyday, wanting to check out our version of Castle Greyskull. Figured I'd swing by the blog quickly and give my favorite examples of the massive amount of press we've gotten for this show.



One of my favorite websites, LAist, marked the exhibit as one of their weekly must-see's. You can read that by CLICKING HERE.



LOVE the LA Weekly blog article about the show. You can read that by ">CLICKING HERE.



And as I've said before, my favorite press to get has always been in outlets that never cover art shows in our genre. And a perfect example of that is popular gossip site, PinkIsTheNewBlog. Trent swung by, picked up some amazing pieces and talked about it. Thanks, Trent! You can read that by CLICKING HERE.

Anyway, there's more press out there, but these are just some of my favs. Google away if you want to see more. And make sure to swing by this month and hang out in the Castle.

I know I've seen more, I just weirdly can't find them right now. Fuel, Spike TV, G4, etc, and The Associated Press and Tom's Hardware came by yesterday, so I'll post when they do.
