Fantastic Event

Thanks to everyone that came to my Punk Art 1970s speaking event last Saturday. Enough people showed up to fill the place with standing room only, and other people left without coming inside because they couldn’t get through the door. I was honored that so many people were enthusiastic to hear my crazy wild stories that go with my Punk photo collection. Also sold prints, met some very interesting people. Wow, what a night!

Talk Talk Talk Saturday!!!

Okay, someone talked me into standing in front of a bunch of people to tell a few stories about my experiences in the pioneer Punk-Art Movement in San Francisco in the late 1970s. So, I’ll be there at 3920 Tennyson Street, 6:30p on the 23rd of January, 2010. Do you know how to Pogo?

A Ray of Art


Great new show to see at MCA Denver, one giant bright beautiful painting by Rex Ray! I met him tonight and discovered that he’s associated with a number of my fave people I worked with in San Francisco. Visit the show in the next few days and you might run into me photographing it for the museum.
