 Fifty24SF and Dave Potes
KAMI and SASU
@FIFTY24SF Gallery
June 8, 2006
This show made me very happy this night. After this show I went over to The Painted Bird which is a newish clothing boutique on Guererro and 24th. Mr. Dave Potes was showing some photographs. Always good stuff from Dave!
Press release for the Fifty24SF show: "The Tokyo-based artists have shown their work worldwide, from Milan, Italy to Manchester, UK to Mito, Japan. As members of the New York/Tokyo collective, The Barnstormers, they painted barns and farm equipment in Cameron, North Carolina.
Known for their large murals and installations that draw upon their personal inspirations, Kami and Sasu collaborate to build stunning iconographies. Drawing from traditional Japanese Calligraphy and sprawling patterns, they create new sensual forms in bold colors that represent their signature style. As a duo, their work is recognized by Kamis strong line work and Sasus distinctive patterns."
Their work really has a Japanese vibe to it.
I really wanted one of those red clocks but a bit out my price range. I think they were around $300 which is a good price for them... I just have no money to spend on art... or much of anything for that matter.
This drawing was pretty damn impressive. Took up most of the back wall.
