Congratulations to Bruce New: he's the subject of the cover article in the winter 2012/2013 issue of Raw Vision magazine. It was written by our friend Lynne Adele and there are of course lots of pretty pictures. If you can't find it at your local bookstore you can either order it or download a pdf at http://rawvision.com.

Here is a recent interview with Matt Straub by Gregory Koutrouby for his "A Thousand Stories" web site. He stopped by Matt's studio in Brooklyn this October and Matt shared some thoughts on painting, life and the West.

Jon was interviewed by William Harries Graham (son of guitarist/songwriter Jon Dee Graham) for the Austin Chronicle, and it's a mighty good read. Check it out here.

Jo Clauwaert & his wife Katrien Devos came over from Belgium, Langford came down from Chicago, and a good time was had by all. Here are a few pics to prove it.

We're happy to be showing new art by our old friend Jon Langford and his old friend Belgian artist Jo Clauwaert. Langford's mixed media paintings on wood grapple with political and pop culture images and meanings. Clauwaert, who has spent a good deal of time at sea documenting the lives of his fishermen friends, has drawn on those experiences as inspiration for his metaphoric and fantastical prints. Please join us.

Seventeen years ago, on September 7, 1995, we opened our doors. We had a tiny collection of folk art we'd gathered from around the South. At the end of that first day we gathered in the gallery with a few good friends for a celebratory beer. A big storm blew in and all hell broke loose. The windows upstairs blew out and rainwater began running down our walls. A tree across the street was struck by lightning and exploded. One of its branches landed next to a friend's car, damming the water in the gutter and flooding his car. The giant pink bunny that sat atop our neighbor's sign blew off and rolled down the street. Always good to start off with a bang, right?

Remember cassette tapes? Remember laboriously assembling a collection of all of your favorite songs onto a tape? Remember what it looked like when the tape broke - either because it wore out or because your player was dirty or just malfunctioning? Well, Camp Bosworth remembers, and he's immortalized it in carved wood and metal awesomeness.
