The Shooting Gallery: Gallery Three

You know, a lot of galleries find it in their ad budget to brag about their amazing upcoming openings in Juxtapoz magazine. A bunch of talented artists are getting amazing exposure this way, and I think that’s super. However, I still have to say that flipping through that magazine without getting a teensy bit bummed is impossible, because there’s too many openings with too many artists happening at too many places for me to be at once. This month issue is represents a particular bummer for me, because there is no way I will be making it to San Francisco for the October opening of Mirror, Mirror on the Wall. And, oh man, I want to be there, because the work of Kukula, Kris Lewis (shown), and Travis Louie together is the kind of thing that would make me give up gummy bears (ahem, that’s huge).

Good thing some of you live in SF, because in my tragic absence I’m going to ask you to do the next best thing: Go for me. October 13th (with an artists reception from 7-11pm) thru November 3, you can experience this ridiculous intermingling of jaw-dropping artwork at The Shooting Gallery (at 66 6th Street; say hi to Satan for me while you’re there). If you do go, I’m dying to hear about it, so keep me on speed dial, or speed type, or whatever. Ugh, jealous.
