Sam Freeman Gallery Images


This one is an installation shot. The wallpaper eventually filled in that wall, and the bright packing materials through the doorway became an elegant installation of Masami Teraoka's work from the 80's. A remarkable exhibition.





Sam Freeman Gallery Show

I have been away from home for almost three months, so I've not been very attentive to blogging. My last show went up entirely without me. The installation was designed by my good friend, the curator and frequent collaborator Darin Klein. Tim Butler did his usual fantastic job installing my wallpaper and Sam Freeman and his assistant Katrina Mohn kept everything rolling along. Sam and Katrina were also kind enough to host the launch of my third book: Budget Decadence. Sam ordered his own stock of the book, so if you're out near Santa Monica and are looking for something to read stop by and pick up a copy. (They will soon be available in the usual 2nd Cannons locations.)

There is a limited edition of the book which includes a print. It's called "Decorate Your Own Room" and is an 8x10 image of an empty domestic interior with detachable suggestions for how one might choose to decorate the room. There are only three remaining as of this writing, and they are available through 2nd Cannons for $75. (this is about 90% less than a comparable edition would cost at, so a good opportunity for art on a budget.)
