Jimenez Lai
A simple description of Jimenez Lai's work is difficult. Taking architectural plans and renderings, the Ohio-based artist brings them into the world of comics, drawings and models in two- and three-dimensions. The juxtaposition exposes the absurdity of CAD in comics and comics in CAD. (Click image for detail.) This isn't the first time Jimenez Lai has been written up but now he's breaking through...

Kevin Ledo: The Guiding Light
In his latest show Montreal based artist Kevin Ledo references images from highly visible fashion advertisements such as Dior, Prada, and Louis Vuitton. He aims to draw parallels between modern fashion advertising and iconic Christian art of medieval times by transposing methods of religious paintings into an advertising context. Kevin's paintings have been on display to date in both Taiwan and Canada. He is...

Two Lines Align: Drawings and Graphic Design by Ed Fella and Geoff McFetridge
I've always been drawn to the ambiguous nature of Geoff McFetridge's graphic design. His distinctive, and highly personal, visual language, built around "logofying ideas," reduce graphical narratives to the point where meaning is largely derived from the viewer's own imagination. Opening this Wednesday at the Redcat Gallery in downtown Los Angeles, an exhibition features his work alongside the veteran visual artist Ed Fella. Fella's...

Swoon: Drown Your Boats
Swoon's first Los Angeles solo exhibition, "Drown Your Boats" opens tomorrow, 16 February 2008 at New Image Art. Partially inspired by Angela Carter's collection of short stories "Burning Your Boats," which reinterprets traditional tales and twists the mundane, you can see the connection as Swoon work combines glimpses of everyday life, legends and variations on mythic themes in her own graceful style. Over the...
