In 1999 Erwin Olaf presented us his vision of Matured Super Models. 15 years later these photographs are still fun and food for thought, if it comes to our perception and handling of getting older. If you’re interested in this great portfolio of 10 Prints, check out this link.

DO YOU place a BET?

Art World Places Its Bet.

I don’t bet on artists. I know –  who is talented! Do you understand the difference?

Oscar Murillo is talented. I wish he also would belong to my artist raster.

But  I believe, too, that Michael or Andrej or Wolfgang or Pau or Taka or

Yoko or Coco or Kris have huge potential.

“It Took a While to Find These Things” Part Two

Between February 22 and May 24, 2014 the OMC Gallery, 7561 Center Ave #32 will be presenting

A Selection of Objects and Sculptures by

Amador (Spain)
Willie Bester (South Africa)
Ivo Dekovic (Croatia)
Hideki Iinuma (Japan)
Shany van den Berg (South Africa)
Takakazu Takeuchi (Japan)
Purvis Young (USA)
and
Anonymous Artists from South Africa, Central Africa, Mali, New Guinea and India

The exhibition presents objects and sculptures, which either were made with the intention to be considered a piece of art and / or to deliver a very, by the individual artist, driven perspective of the subject matter. Others have been created by their authors as ‘tools’ to be used in ceremonies and rituals and therefore were designed with the intention to provide a common, generally understandable (at least within the tribe) visualization of natural existing and /or imaginary phenomena.

Examples of objects in the exhibition:
