Matt Leines Artist Talk Tonight

At AS220 in Providence, Rhode Island.

Drawn In release party/signing

This Thursday, June 30th at 6pm there is a release party / signing for Julia Rothman’s Drawn In book. I think everyone is bringing their sketchbooks for people to leaf through (the photos here are from one of the books I’m bringing up) so that will be exciting.

Some of the artists who will be at the event are Ana Benaroya, Jen Corace, Christian DeFilippo, Rob Dunlavey, Ben Finer, Jessica Hische, Matt Leines, Alex Lukas, Ted McGrath, Leif Parsons, Claudia Pearson, Mike Sudal, Jenny Volvovski and Ben K. Voss.

Thursday, June 30th at 6pm
at Powerhouse Arena in Dumbo
37 Main Street (corner of Water & Main), Brooklyn, NY

DRAWN IN

Julia Rothman – illustrator, designer and author of Book By It’s Cover – has released her latest in-print project Drawn In: A Peek into the Inspiring Sketchbooks of 44 Fine Artists, Illustrators, Graphic Designers, and Cartoonists through Quarry Books.

Matt and I are included (along with 42 others) – images after the break. Pick up a copy here – or in your local bookstore.

Matt Leines Interview


Matt and I did this interview back in late April / early May for Fecal Face. Somehow during a platform migration it got lost – so here it is – after the break. Click on images for slightly larger versions.

Printin’ at PAFA


I’ve been organizing a live screen printing event Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts Museum for tomorrow night. I think everyone is pretty tired of live T-shirt printing (at least I am), so for this event I tried to take a cue from the old exquisite corpse drawing game. Visitors to the first PAFA After Dark event will be able to assemble and then take home a custom 4 color silkscreen – printed on the spot by members of SPACE 1026. Images for the event were drawn by Bonnie Brenda Scott, Matt Leines, Bill McRight, Anni Altshuler, Andrew Jeffrey Wright, Chris Kline, Leah Mackin, Ben Woodward, Isaac Tin Wei Lin and myself.

PAFA After Dark: Full Frontal
Thursday, November 4th, 2010. 6 – 9 pm

Samuel M.V. Hamilton Building

As I mentioned before, I’m curating an exhibition of eight Philadelphia-based artists who utilize printmaking techniques and self-printed materials, generally thought of as mediums of multiple, and incorporate them into one-of-a-kind works.

Doubting Thomases opens September 10th at Nudashank Gallery in Baltimore, Maryland and will feature works by Micah Danges, Chris Kline, Matt Leines, Isaac Tin Wei Lin, Bill McRight, Dan Murphy, Andrew Jeffrey Wright and myself.

Street Cred

_DSC6061
From the Art Forum Diary’s coverage of A New York Minute: “With tattoos, graffiti, and skateboarding subculture long appropriated by the mainstream, the blessing of the Roman bourgeoisie seems to be the final blow to ‘street cred.’ ”
Can everyone just get over “street cred” already? Who has it, who wants it and who lost it; who cares?
