I’ve heard great things about Ben Jurgenson’s show at the Meat Market in D.C. Although I couldn’t make it to the opening, I was still around the Corcoran when Ben was constructing a lot of these sculptures and his process is amazing. He was an excellent lab tech in the sculpture department and really helped me while I was auditing a class after graduation with tips and tools that made my ticky-tacky houses piece a hell of a lot easier. Ben is truly a wunderkind, and is one of the best artists coming out of the Corcoran this year. You want to buy in to an artist before they make it, get yourself down to the Meat Market and scope up a great investment, as well as a really cool piece of art!

Once upon a time in North East Washington

A cold and windy day on the washington mall.

Dennis O’Neil has Alexander Djikia coming into the Hand Print Workshop International studio for the next two weeks. Very excited about assisting them. Alexander will be the 2nd Russian artist that I’ve worked with at HPWI. I’m sure this will be as educational as work with the great “Lenny” Tishkov. Hope there is some vodka involved.

Nature always wins in the end.
