Post Skinner - "This Fear You May Know" White Walls SF 8/14
Skinner has got a new solo show opening this Saturday (8/14) at White Walls Gallery in SF from 7p-11p. Be sure to come check it out. The paintings are fantastic and wild. Colin Day did a great video previewing the show which you can check out at the White Walls site. There is an interview and some pics of new paintings from the show too. http://www.whitewallssf.com/blog

Skinner is bringing some new three dimensional elements to the show that you guys will dig. Kirkland's got a preview pic on his site and here is another:
Image

More pics are coming soon.

I know some of you were at the Super7 show a few months ago with Martin and Skinner. Skinner's new paintings far surpass anything you saw then. Lots of new work and a few new three dimensional pieces will be on hand. Hope to see many of you there!

Hell shittin' yeah! At first I thought your comment about these paintings surpassing what S7 had was trite, but after looking I must concur.

Many of you have already seen this, but for those who haven't followed the preview link, here is some motivation...

Image

This masks measures approx. 18"x18" as most of them do. Some are a little smaller at 18"x10".

There are 5 designs and 6 masks of each design, all painted differently by Skinner. They are made of a thick vacuum formed plastic, not paper mache.

I still want wish he'd make a print of the "Morlock Johnson." It's one of my favorite things he's done.

oh yeah very inspiring. been checking links of his art so many times over past couple days.
crazy how fast he developed his works from last exhibitions to now. :shock:
bright even more detailed realistic paintings have so much depth.
totally crazy to see how much effort he puts into these. ...true addiction.

I was there from 7:10 to roughly 7:30pm. Got a pin from Skinner with a red monster face. Didn't see any other skullbrainers. When were you there?

Jan and I were there about the same time as you, Harmon, but I didn't see you. I saw Josh just before I left, though. It was just starting to get crowded when we left. I'm glad we were there early so we could actually stand back and see the paintings. We'll probably go again for another look before the show comes down. It's worth a second look for sure.
