MARS-1: Mars solo @Meta Gallery opens April 2nd
I am seriously loving Edwin's work. I only own one very small piece but it is definitely a favorite in my collection. The work from his upcoming solo show is amazing.
Preview the entire show here. More details below.

Since he began exhibiting in 2006, his works have been shown at galleries and museums worldwide including LeBasse Projects in Culver City, the Giant Robot Biennale at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles, the Insa Art Center inSeoul, and the Museum of Kyoto, Japan.

Ego posted some information on the upcoming Boxes of Death show this march. A show consisting entirely of miniature wooden coffins? Nice.

I finally got a chance to check out Roq La Rue's February show yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised by Ciou's work. Although I had been anticipated being more interested in Sarah Joncas pieces, Ciou's pieces ended up catching most of my attention.

Twlight Artist Collective opened Bad Words tonight. Curated by Chris Crites. The vegan piece was definitely one of my favorites.

Unfortunately I got to West Seattle too late to check out the Urban Construction show at ArtsWest in West Seattle. I was able to get a view of some of John Osgood's pieces, though.
