LJ Lindhurst: Right Now

Show coming up!

I’m happy to join the nice folks at ContaminateNYC for their CNYC Outbreak initiative in Gowanus by having a show of a bunch of my work at the fabulous Root Hill Cafe. The opening is Thursday, October 7th, and EVEN BETTER, they’ll be hosting a wine tasting in conjunction with DiVino on October 21st.

A wine tasting! do you hear me, a wine tasting!

Here are the details, copied from their web site–they will also be publishing a (surely frightening) video interview with me. I’ll post that when it’s ready.

Opening Reception: Oct. 7th, Thursday – 7:00pm – 10:00pm

Ongoing Exhibition: Oct. 7th – Nov. 1st

Wine Tasting: Oct. 21th, Thursday – 7:00pm – 10:00pm

Join me for an open studio on Saturday, October 2nd, 2010 from 12-6pm, as part of the always-awesome Annual Gowanus Artists Studios Tour (AGAST).

This is an annual tour of the artists’ studios in the Gowanus area, and over 150 artists will be opening their studios to the public. This will be my 5th year participating in the AGAST Tour, and it is always quite well-attended, and a whole lot of fun.

You can check out the map and see the other artists who are participating at The AGAST Web site.

So drop by and check out the new Foil Bunny, and a few small works I’ve got finished up-I’m in the building at 94 9th Street, between Smith and 2nd Avenue (about a block from the Smith/9th Street F/G subway stop).

Well, the Glitch Generation show is ending next month. If you want to come down to DUMBO and take a look at the Green Foil Bunny in person, now is your chance! The next First Thursday gallery walk will be on June 3rd. Here’s a link with a list of all the participating galleries.

And for you non-New Yorkers: I’ve also got a show coming up in September at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art in Indiana. I’ll be showing the afore-mentioned Green Foil Bunny as well as Mack Truck Dog in their 2010 Contemporary Realism Biennial.

More to come! I have three new paintings in the works, 2 of which are 99.99999% finished… but then again, I always say that, now don’t I?

Green Foil Bunny will be included in the Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC) Gallery’s Glitch Generation show, opening February 4th, down in DUMBO. If you’re in the area, come on down and check it out!

So Lock #10 (below) just got honorable mention in the Utrecht 60th Anniversary Juried Art Competition. You can see it here on their blog. And if that’s not cool enough, it’s also going to be featured in the January and February issues of American Artist magazine.

Party on, Wayne!
