“The Co-op Bar offers a low-level investment opportunity and community space in the form of a bar. Designed to take advantage of the surge in potential customers at an art opening, the coop bar maximizes profit by serving only hard alcohol: shots, mixed drinks, martinis, etc.
As an investor you’ll receive a sizable return on your investment and a discount at the bar. As an artist or a supporter of the arts, when you buy a drink at the co-op bar you are putting money back into the local Bay Area Art Community. A percentage of the profits from the bar will go toward supporting the programs of the Collective Foundation, which includes grants given directly to artists, the production of artist publications, and other services.”
With Joseph del Pesco for the Collective Foundation.

Info from the Headlands: Close Calls: 2007 is an exhibition showcasing 29 California visual art applicants for Headlands Center for the Arts� 2007 Artist in Residence Program, as well as three finalists for the Tournesol Award in Painting. The featured artists were all extremely close calls in the highly competitive application process.
Close Calls is another exciting venue for Headlands to recognize emerging California visual artists through a curated selection of their most recent work. Now in its fifth year, the show has become a highly anticipated and well-attended addition to Headlands programming. This exhibition will kick off programming for 2007, which is the 20th Anniversary celebration of Headlands Center for the Arts� Artist in Residence program.

The LAB presents Some Assembly Required - An Artists Talk
Moderated by Mike Arcega and Steven Wolf
With Taro Hattori, Jesse Houlding, Steve Lambert, Francis McIlveen, Yuki Maruyama, and Dan Nelson
Wednesday, September 27th, 7 PM
$3-10 sliding scale admission
At The LAB, 2948 16th Street @ Capp, San Francisco
Please join us for a panel discussion in conjunction with The LAB’s first-ever juried exhibition. This project invited artists to submit work that requires assembly. This phrase is open to interpretation–it can be read as a play on the word assemblage, that the artist needs to assemble his or her work in some way. It can also be read, perhaps with the writings of Alain Robbe-Grillet in mind, to suggest that the work must be assembled by the viewer in order to have meaning. A broad array of work in all media with diverse content, including both objects and performance, is included.
Along with Sara Dierck, I will be presenting the Anti-Advertising Agency’s portable sound unit project at Conflux 2006. The sound units will be installed in various locations around New York and we will give a talk on Sept. 15, 2006 between 3pm and 5pm at McCaig-Welles Gallery, Conflux HQ. If you’ll be around get in touch or say hello at the festival.
