also making a big buzz, this summer . . . EVIE FALCI !!<\/p>\n

EVIE FALCI – the rhinestone princess, I’m tempted to say, goddess – whatever !! <\/p>\n

though funnie . . about BRENDAN MONROE at LITTLE CAKES, and EVIE FALCI at CAKE SHOP !!
\nthe BIG APPLE must have a . . sweet tooth.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nthe poster invite for EVIE FALCI’S first<\/em> solo show in NYC, at the music venue, CAKE SHOP – on the Lower East Side, NYC.
\nthe show ran Jan 10 – 28, 2008. <\/p>\n

now, – if that isn’t COSMIC<\/strong> – I don’t know . . what is !!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\na very young EVIE FALCI . . at the opening.
\nyep, for sure. definite had her pegged for success, too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nEVIE FALCI, colored bead ‘mosaic’. she even showed some early compositions of her now signature, intricate, colored bead . . ‘mandelas’.
\nvery tantric – to behold, indeed !!
\nand soooooo cutting edge, even now.
\nesp vs falling, sloppy seconds, wall-to-wall watermelon slices. ugh.
\nL.A. come on – give us a break. if, not a real<\/strong> !! . . break-dance !! <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nnow, don’t<\/strong> get me wrong !!
\nI totally love, love, love her multi-colored pieces, but I esp love this black and white study, she showed at the time – mostly because of how . . well, ghostly – it is !!
\nbut also because it looks like some crazy luminous tantric . . crochet !!
\nand yes, it’s made from craft ‘google’ – eyes.
\nif anybody can use simple craft ‘supplies’, and totally transform, and TRANSCEND their every-day DIY – it’s EVIE !!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nEVIE FALCI, glow-in-the-dark, google eye, EYEBALL !!
\non shaped canvas . . 14 x 12 in.<\/p>\n

yep, I did manage to score a small piece from the show – and, I adore<\/strong> it.
\nbecause it transcends it’s ‘arts & crafts’ heritage, and because it is GLOW-IN-THE-DARK, and because it’s an . . . EYEBALL !!
\neyeball, c’est . . . moi !!<\/p>\n

and where you can find her newest work.
\ndamn, do I love love love this, or what !!
\nkind-of a structured waterfall . . gorgeous !!
\nkind of a D.I.Y. – STELLA !!<\/strong><\/p>\n

kind-of a thinking person’s . . material ‘transcendence’.
\nabstract color-field, has never looked so good – since ERIK den BREE JEN<\/strong>, blew me away, and sill – does !!<\/p>\n

I love ‘structure’ that has plastic ‘narrative’. and variance.
\nI love structure, that implodes . . . the i-m-a-g-i-n-a-t-i–on.<\/p>\n

what can I say, I love ‘higher’ composition . . in my art.
\nart that sings – and then, runs – for it !!<\/p>\n

pss: w-a-t-e–r-m-e-l-o-n . . . alert.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

okay, okay. lighten up !!
\nI guess it takes all <\/strong>kinds, if only to contrast<\/strong> the full spectrum !!
\nso, yeah put Evie to work on an exterior wall mural, too !! L.A. Venus.
\nbut, the buildings got to be . . side-by-side.
\nfall<\/strong>ing sloppy melons vs tantric water fall<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

K<\/strong>arma, what a B<\/strong>itch.<\/p>\n
