The pieces are finally starting to come together for our Glow installation, "Soft Underbelly". We've been working on this for 6 months now... only one more day left. We made a last minute decision to paint all of the hairs with UV glow in the dark paint and I think it was well worth the effort.
I've been hard at work lately working on our installation for Glow 2010 in Santa Monica this coming Saturday. It's been an intense past week weeks and I haven't had the time to update this blog with our progress. This morning Joshua Howell and Aaron Zeligs were quoted in an Los Angeles Times article about Glow. Here is the link: Glow 2010

If you are in LA this weekend, come by and check out the event! I'm sure it will be a bit crazy, but there are some cool projects.
Cliff Garten Studio in Venice CA has recently unveiled The Avenue of Light in Fort Worth, TX.
The Avenue of Light, anchors the Lancaster Avenue Corridor Redevelopment Project and is nearly half a mile long. Lancaster Avenue was severed from Fort Worth’s downtown in the 1950s with the construction of the elevated I-30 freeway, but in recent years the freeway was relocated and the area has begun to be redeveloped into a pedestrian friendly community with a renewed appreciation for the history of the site. CGS won a national invitational competition administered by Fort Worth Public Art to secure the commission. The challenge of the project was to use the median design and sculptures as the entry and civic spine of the new Lancaster District. It treats the median's landscape and sculptures as one integrated work of art.
The project was also recently featured under the "Avant Garde" section on Kanye West's blog.
