1st Thursday is upon us again
Well, I'm almost recovered from San Pedro Punk (book is almost ready for printing) and my hearing is returning after another 4th of July, ghetto style, complete with signal flares and way too many big fireworks coming from residential areas, so that must mean it's time for 1st Thursday.
Tomorrow, July 7, should be a nice, long daylight summer evening, probably with some more popping, leftover fireworks. Even my pesky jewish mother is coming out with some friends form her walking group, so if you get mugged by some old ladies, don't say I didn't warn you.
Here are the art highlights -
The show to see, IMHO, is the Butcher John Henry show at Gallery 478, a.ka. Ray Carafano's place. Scott Brown and Logan Fox merge like Constructocons into a 20 foot tall painting machine, known as Butcher John Henry, that just kicks ass. Their bad ass self portrait of themselves painting a nuclear blast as it happens, before the blast wave hits them, just kicks ass.
Down at Walled City, we are having a closing party for Tiki Jay One's show. Rum punch will be served, an acoustic reggae band will to relax us all into hazy island submission.
THM Gallery is presenting the Celebrity Art Exhibit. Apparently the opening for this show was quite the doozy.
The Loft is featuring a group show, with Ginny Bacon, Nancie Doughty, Mary Higuchi, Gloria Lee, Lynn Mikami, Carol Morris-Ward, Pat Wooley.

The fireworks were slammin' last night. LAPD was in full killjoy mode, which apparently put the kibosh on the usual block-long celebration on 40th Street.
As it happened, though, I was on 32nd and Kerkhoff, and because half of Harbor Division was up on the point, I was able to set off my seal control bombs unmolested. I heart San Pedro!
