Listen to “The Alex Schaefer Hour” LIVE at 1pm PST. Random talk, rants, & brainstorms off the top of my head, plus a few audio clips of yours truly after sneaking into the LA Art Show. I’ll be doing the show from The Hive Gallery so expect the usual audio problems, but please do call in at 949-203-4726 and chat with us!

The NY Observer published the list of the galleries in the New York Armory Show this March at THIS LINK but here is the list of Southern California Galelries who will be showing there - basically, if your gallery shows at the NY Armory show, it is a certification of sorts that your gallery is playing in the major leagues and is not Raid Projects renting bunk beds to Hungarian performance rejects.
Ambach & Rice
Angles Gallery
Cherry and Martin
Richard Heller Gallery
Michael Kohn Gallery
Mixografia
Mihai Nicodim Gallery
Susanne Vielmetter
Additionally it was announced that Culver City-based Francois Ghebaly Gallery will be collaborating with NYC’s Nicole Klagsbrun Gallery on an Armory Solo Project of artist Patrick Johnson (talk about an un-googleable name)
All of these are in the Contemporary Wing of the Fair. There is a Modern Wing, too, but fuck Modern.
EPISODE 32: FINE OR FUNCTION?
As the city comes together for art fairs, we head over to the LA Art Show at the convention center to sit in on the Fabrik Magazine sponsored panel “The Inter-Influence of Art and Design”, moderated by Peter Frank and featuring panelists: Interior Designer Linda Allen; Director at the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art Rex Bruce; artist Brad Howe; Designer and Founder of Twentieth Stefan Lawrence; and Art Consultant Leonardo Ledesma.
Here at Beer & Tall Buildings, we’ve always envisioned design as “that which answers a question,” and art as “that which asks a question,” but after this installment of the fair’s extensive symposia series, we find that the lines can’t be so distinctly drawn…if they can even be drawn at all.
Listen to “The Alex Schaefer Hour” LIVE Today at 1pm PST. Like last week, it’ll be another plein air call in episode of the show! I’m not sure where yet. All the fancy art shows open this week, maybe we’ll try to Obi Wan our way into the convention center…
The Print edition of Coagula Art Journal was founded in 1992 as an antidote to the theory-addled and fashion-driven forces in the world of contemporary art.
Coagula remains clarity amidst the ambiguty of contemporary art and the neutered, star-struck art world; we don't fuck around here.
