GARY LANG at ACE GALLERY CIRCLES / WORDS : On The COVER of BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE This Month !
GARY LANG
at ACE GALLERY
CIRCLES / WORDS
O.K. So we got all excited about this exhibit, planned an interview with the Artist
and no matter how serious we were, it, uhmm, just didn't happen, due to scheduling.
So, here is one of those ART Essays that we are known for, you know the kind,
rambling, searching, reaching for some form of truth telling through Art, etc ...
Gary Lang's Press kit tells us that he was born in Los Angeles in 1950, Lang attended
the California Institute of the Arts. He received an MFA from Yale University in 1975,
and a Fulbright/Hayes Travel & Research Grant to live in Barcelona for two years prior
to settling in New York City. Lang has had more than seventy solo exhibitions in the US,
Austria, France, Japan, The Netherlands, and Spain.
Matt Gleason, One of L.A.'s Independent Art critics sites that, " Painter Gary Lang has
enjoyed a celebrated career worthy of his keen talent. Free of the burden of conceptual
angst that plagues most artists of our era, he penetrates optical space in his large circular
paintings that defy the nihilism of both Duchamp's mechanical spinning wheels & Jasper
Johns' targets. Far from mechanized, these are exercises in concentration & close inspection
sees an ever-present hand in the almost precise brushstrokes."
Ah yes, very well put my compadre. In other words, this is cool art! I like IT! Bravo!
" The one thing which we seek with insatiable desire is to forget ourselves, to be
surprised out of our propriety, to lose our sempiternal memory and to do something
without knowing how or why; in short to draw a new circle. "
- Ralph Waldo Emerson. (1803–1882).
Yes, even Waldo agrees, that is, if you can find Waldo. We were looking to interview
Mr. Lang, but like Waldo, he was unavailable for comment.
" A circle is a simple shape of Euclidean geometry that is the set of all points in a plane
that are at a given distance from a given point, the centre. " - Wikipedia
I see, I see, o.k . Were getting somewhere.
circle ˈsərkəl| (abbr.: cir. or circ. ) noun 1. a round plane figure whose boundary
(the circumference) consists of points equidistant from a fixed point (the center).
- Webster's Dictionary
Yes, Yes, that's all true, but what about the art ?
" You have noticed that everything an Indian does in a circle and that is because
the Power of the World always works in circles and everything tries to be round. "
- Black Elk, Holy Man of the Oglala Sioux 1863-1950
We have gathered that Gary Lang was born in 1950, the year that Black Elk
moved past this world and yet, there is a small connection here, let's continue.
"When you are excited about something," Lang says, "I think you should take
that very seriously." Mr Lang stated to Art Ltd Magazine in an interview from
his Ojai Studio last year. I agree, that is why you will find his work & show at
ACE Gallery in Beverly Hills on The Cover of this months BUREAU of ARTS +
CULTURE Magazine on line.
If you want to belong to the Art Mafia on the West Coast, You go to Cal Arts &
indeed Gary Lang is a made man, so to speak. He's been in the game a very long
time, working with lateral lines, triangles and circles for some amount of time.
Visit the ACE Gallery and their site for visual examples. The Circle works are
indeed powerful, inspiring, sometimes very exacting & other times loose, allowing
for us to see the actual brushstrokes. As, Janet Koplos, my senior art critic from
Art in America mentioned in 2010, "… each line is composed of pulses of color
that reveal the depletion and reloading of his brush." Yes, that too, is very true.
Please Joshua, you say to yourself, tells us about the art, explain as you so often do
what it means, think for us, please, pretty please. Tell us what to think, tells us what
you think, ruminate on how and why it is important, give us something we can smile
about. Help us sell this stuff. Contribute to the canon of great Art critics who all agree
that Gary Lang is brilliant. We did that already, he's on the cover. And yes, of course
he is brilliant, but so are you, so am I. We are brilliant and life is good. So, then why
did Gary Lang get the cover ? And here is the part where I give in & describe his, my
own and yours too: Brilliance.
Because Gary Lang is focused, because he is disciplined, because he has been doing
this thing we call ART for decades and mostly, to be honest, because I like the ART.
This current work does have a relationship with those I have quoted & many I have
not. Circles are what we live on, well, spheres anyway. Some believe that within each
being, each human, you will find an area of energy commonly called a CHAKRA.
A sort of zone or area that often correlates with an ephemeral energy within the person.
I believe, without speaking in depth with Mr Lang, that he has tapped into a fine
representation of what we might call a chakra with his ongoing CIRCLE Series.
View the books by Leadbeater of the 1930's, to see what I mean. Standing alone in
the gallery, in front of a Gary Lang Circle can seem dizzying. The works are alive,
they throb, they orb, they breath in and out. Not like a silly optical art experiment,
but organically, they move. The retina of ones eye [ not a reference to ONE the group,
just 'one's' as in a person ] actually has to do some serious work to deal with the amount
of color information that the viewer is dealing with. Mr. Lang has done this with lateral
stripes and again with triangles, but the circles, take the cake, as it were. Years ago,
I recall standing in front of a medium sized painting [8 foot] as compared to say his
eleven foot paintings currently on view. The effect was nothing less than mesmerizing.
His current works are iconic to the degree that, like the work of Artist Ron Riehel, they
are so lovingly crafted, they could substitute for 'religious icons from another planet',
to steal a line from my own description of Mr. Riehel's show from 1996. Artists today,
must find something they are very serious about and be excited about it, to flip Lang's
advice. He has done just that with this Art.
Which brings us back to circles. Native Americans, Mathematicians, Scientists,
and if there is a god, which there might be & I don't want to turn off any readers
that don't believe there is a god, whoever and whatever contributed to the great
creation of this planet and indeed the universe, somehow, wether out of design or
out of convenience or out of necessity, utilized the sphere/circle to make it happen.
So did Gary Lang, Jasper Johns, Richard Long, Newell Harry and me and you and
just about everyone that we know has drawn a circle and enjoyed doing it. Kepler
obsessed over circles in his search to define the orbits of the planets, which led to
Newton, which led to Einstein, its endless, the work we do, based on the work
somebody else has done. So then, what is this thing called ART ? Why do we do it ?
I cant answer for Gary Lang, he was unavailable for comment prior to my deadline.
I will say this, Art: painting, sculpture printmaking, the application and craft of
expressing ones self is something we humans need to do, it feels good to do it,
and if we did it correctly, it makes others either feel good, or at least understand
what it was we were feeling, and in some cases, the effect is sorrow, pain, sadness,
because that is the life's experience, that is the human experience, that is the gamut
of emotions we go through on this planet, this very round planet that from a distance,
looks like a circle. This particular example of creating Circles is much more than cool,
it is partially undefinable in text. In other words, I can't actually tell you how damn
cool this stuff is, you have to visit the Art Gallery yourself, see it for yourself.
The great New York Painter & World Class Filmmaker Julian Schnabel describes often,
the need to 'see the work in person', so true, so true, in this case especially true. Art is
kinda weird like that, so are those that make the stuff, that's why we do it, because, we
are never quite sure how it is going to end up upon completion. Not unlike this extremely
weird and unorthodox art essay. Which is clearly not as pretty as a Gary Lang painting.
Not as focused as a Richard Long Sculpture, Totally missed the bulls eye that Jasper Johns
painted so vividly. Clearly, not nearly as funny as a Newell Harry piece of neon. Possibly,
just as confusing as an Einstein Theory. Though, through it all, I took Mr Lang's advice,
" When you are excited about something, I think you should take that very seriously."
End of Discussion. End of Essay. As Shakespeare's King Lear might say, " The Wheel
has turned full circle." Please See The Art Exhibit at ACE GALLERY by Mr Gary Lang
on View through April. " See you Around…"

BUREAU OF ARTS AND CULTURE : The Non Profit Application PROCESS with COMMUNITY PARTNERS
Dear friends, supporters & those who have received attention
from our reviews, posts, critical analysis and complimentary
essays. We are currently applying for Non profit status with
Community Partners. The Application process is very thorough.
Please read the current seven point application & understand that
if indeed we are able to proceed in this fashion, we are in deep
gratitude for those who have supported us and also in need of
your continued support as we move forward. Non profit status
allows for BUREAU Magazine to sponsor the youth as well
allow contributors to receive a tax write off for their support.
We feel it is important to share this process with our readers.
Thank you again for your support and interest in the magazine
and the institute, gallery and general idea behind our mission.
We look forward to serving you & your community in The Arts.
Special Thank You for your Letters of Support to:
- Father Greg Boyle: Homeboy Industries Non Profit
- Judy Carmichael: Jazz Inspired Public Radio Show
- Joan Schulze : Author, Artist, Teacher and Lecturer
- Ben Stiller : Film Actor, Director and Producer
BUREAU OF ARTS AND CULTURE : The Non Profit
Application PROCESS with COMMUNITY PARTNERS
THE PROGRAM
1.
There is a need for the Arts in America today and especially on
The West Coast. Funding for the Arts is a small percentage compared
to locales like New York City. The youth of today so seldom hears a
senior artists discuss their careers. We have a goal to create a dialog
that is educational, exciting and inspiring to our listeners, be they
a sixteen year old young lady from East Los Angeles or indeed an
Established Artist of the professional variety from say, Compton.
For educational purposes we delivered the magazine to East L. A.
South L.A. , San Pedro, Torrance, Echo Park, door to door in select
neighborhoods as well as in local marketplaces that included: Art,
Music, Theater, Film, Surf, Skate, Bike, Photo, Design, Architecture,
Literary establishments of any sort. We ordered 10,000 magazines
and actually received about 20,000. For fund raising, we delivered
the magazine, for possible future donations to: Beverly Hills, Pacific
Palisades, Palos Verdes, West Hollywood, Los Feliz, Malibu and
The beach communities: Hermosa, Redondo & Manhattan beaches.
We received financial support from stakeholders in the arts & culture
communities by creating a dialog about the arts, reviewing their art
exhibitions, theater plays & films. Art Galleries from Culver City to
Bergamot Station to Glendale approved of and supported Edition One.
A thorough review of an Art event explains to the younger audience
what is happening and celebrates the Arts in a manner that very few
commercial Arts publication are able to provide. We also started a
pilot program, in the event that we would one day become non profit.
By sponsoring local musicians & athletes with both equipment and
in some cases memberships to a local gym. We wrote a check to a
local high school to assure that an aspiring french horn player had
an instrument at all times and indeed, he competed at state level.
We partnered with a local boxing gym in South Central providing
BUREAU hats, t shirts, bags and a 25. dollar membership check
to two young athletes that were chosen by the local business who
knew of their ability & needs as low income minorities with skills.
We plan to sponsor more young artists with this same approach.
Every time an ad is sold, we can provide local needy individuals
with this type of endorsement: Art, Theater, Music & Athletics.
We effectively cover a large geographic and demographic area with
the physical paper edition of BUREAU of Arts and Culture Magazine.
Our goal is two fold. With a wide distribution of the paper magazine,
we strive to bridge the gap between donors & those who may benefit
from those donations. So often, we see the non profit model wherein
money from the wealthy provides a program for the needy, with little
interaction or relatable relationship beyond the private or public grant.
We distribute the magazine throughout a very wide area, so that those
who may donate in the future, also are interested in the content within
the magazine & the main BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE website
that provides Audio Interviews extending directly from the printed page .
BUREAU sites in cities such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego,
Santa Barbara, New York City and very soon Seattle, allow for anyone,
anywhere, to see what is going on in the arts in that particular city.
Which we feel will allow for us to apply for support, distribution and
grants within those particular cities and for local businesses to buy ads.
We add new cities quite often and create a lasting relationship with the
established Arts Foundations in ART, MUSIC, THEATER. Which usually
includes Classical music, Art Galleries, live Theater and Film. We added
Surfing , Skateboarding and Biking to get the interest of a younger
readership and indeed it worked. We have also celebrated those subjects
with our fundraisers, selling artworks in relation to Biking & Skatng.
We partnered with local & national businesses that assisted & we provided
logo affiliation & coverage on line: Chrome Bags, Jarrittos, LA Skate,
DTLA Bike Shop and The Los Angeles Bikers Coalition, to name a few.
Established Artists from diverse cultures also participated in the
BUREAU of Arts and Culture Exhibitions & Interviews. We brought
together Native American, African American, Chinese American,
Armenian American and Mexican American elder artists in a single
exhibition, a financial & critical success with the highly regarded :
"Gathering The Tribes: Part One".
2.
Our mission is to celebrate, educate and inspire others through the arts.
We have a goal to create a four fold winning situation for: the donor, the
professional, the young artist or athlete and the third party non profit .
With The Paper Edition of BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE Magazine:
- A. The Donor receives a tax write off, a gift, or a full page Ad
to one of our affiliated non profits or a non profit of their own choice
our a business of their own.
[ See Father Greg Boyle's Letter of Recommendation ]
- B. The Professional in The ARTS receives an in depth Interview.
[ Read Artist Joan Schulze's Letter of Recommendation ]
- C. The young Artist receive a stipend for Art, Theater, Music, Athletics.
[ We can provide a Letter from a participating students upon Request ]
- D. The magazine receives the money to print, distribute & maintain sites.
We plan to utilize the ground work of Edition Number One & pilot programs
as well as non profit status to launch an entirely new approach to fundraising.
Going back into the wealthier neighborhoods that have already received the
magazine with the tax write off incentives and the youth sponsorship program
as well as the AD Page in the paper edition to mobilize their ability to support
BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE Magazine, Website & Cultural City Sites.
Fundraising through philanthropic means, such as companies that may benefit
indirectly from BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE's coverage and celebration
of ART, THEATER, MUSIC, FILM, LITERATURE, PHOTOGRAPHY,
ARCHITECTURE, DESIGN, FASHION. We are often asked to be OFFICIAL
MEDIA SPONSORS for Major Art Events such as this years LOS ANGELES
ART FAIR and PHOTO LA. As a non profit, we can negotiate with these
larger Institutes to assist in fund raising at an entirely different level.
We differ from other non profit magazines that focus entirely on a single subject,
be it ART, PHOTOGRAPHY or SPORTS. We write about West Coast Culture &
INTERVIEW professionals as well as students in the fields & subjects mentioned.
We recently interviewed a group of students at The New School of Architecture &
Design in San Diego. They have a project wherein they created a series of chairs
and we intend to assist in the sales of those types of projects to donors & Arts
organizations through the magazine, fund raisers, interviews & art exhibitions.
When the BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE visits San Francisco, San Diego
or other cities where we are expanding, the word gets out quick. We usually set
up a few interviews, photograph the city itself, visit the official institutes such
as Chamber of Commerce [ San Diego] or the Mayors office [ Santa Barbara ],
we review a major event such as the Philharmonic[ San Francisco]. We meet
tens, if not hundreds of local businesses, get their contact information, compile
& organize the information and eventually apply it to their specific city site, to
the BUREAU Website & eventually to the actual paper magazine. It has been a
successful model. With non profit status, it will be a very effective organization.
3.
Within two years, BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE Magazine could have sites
in over twelve different cities. We could sponsor and assist over a hundred young
underprivileged youngsters or young adults. We foresee several editions of the
glossy paper magazine as well as a local gazette edition in various cities with the
opportunity to publish writers and commission locals with a stipend upon the sale
of Ad Space sold locally. With the groundwork that we have laid out, BUREAU
of ARTS + CULTURE may become a National Arts publication with distribution
& coverage in many major cities in the U.S.A. We will start by adding the newest
cities geographically closest to L. A. as we already have done. Seattle is next.
Usually, the cities business [ Ability to support] & The Arts [ A thriving scene ]
provide an indicator as to where we are needed most. With Non Profit status,
more than anything, we will raise funds here in Los Angeles. The Film Industry,
The Fashion Industry, The Art Industry, The Music Industry will all provide us
with a specific focus in fund raising and event oriented donation opportunities.
We are currently conducting a series of Free on line Writing Courses for working
class individuals and we foresee a future where we will publish student projects.
4.
We received Ad purchases, donations, in kind trades, contributions from
private individuals and sold artworks for the printing of our pilot edition.
ART Exhibitions included SKATERS RULE! with amateurs exhibiting along
side career professionals. GATHERING The TRIBES: Part One showcased
Artists with decades of artwork, many of which sold & The artists profited,
as opposed to the commonly known practice where artists get nothing in
return. Mr Triliegi, a career artist, has donated works for non profits as
early as 1990, raising over $4,000. for a single sale and receiving no
compensation. BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE is set up to benefit all
of the participants: the Artists, the Donors, the Public and the Magazine.
We partnered directly with businesses: Indie Printing, LA Skate, DTLA Bikes,
Stitch & Print, Jarritos Beverages, Chrome Bags for Art Exhibits & Fundraisers.
In some cases, we brought the Art Exhibit directly to their Commercial Space,
in others, we hosted the exhibition at a space adjacent to the BUREAU Offices.
For the printing of the Paper Edition of BUREAU of Arts and Culture Magazine
we partnered with Robert Berman Gallery, William Turner Gallery, Koplin Del
Rio, Abril Books, The Roxy Theater, Shamrock Tattoo, Samuel French Bookstore,
Millennium Construction, DeKor Interiors, Xocai Chocolate, Artist Lucie Boswell,
Writer Mary Jo Romano, Poet Sabreen Shabazz & indirectly with hundreds of
bookstores, record shops, art galleries & venues that distributed the magazine.
We hand delivered the first paper Edition throughout Southern California and
select neighborhoods in San Francisco. We introduced the magazine & created
Popular Cultural Sites in Los Angeles [ 430 + Google followers, 20,000+ visits ],
Bay Area [ Art, Music, Literature +Links to Interviews with Bay Area Artists ],
San Diego [ Surf, Music, Architecture +Links to Interviews with Local Creators ],
Santa Barbara [ Art, Music, Literature Coming soon Interviews with local talent ],
The Literary Site [ Poetry, Writing, Publishing and Links to Writers Interviews ],
Next on the schedule is Seattle [ Music, Art, Theater, Dance, Culture & more ].
We update the website [ 50,000+ Views] monthly and add events to the cultural
sites on a weekly basis. We have recently added Advertising Slots on each Site.
We are an official media Sponsor for LA Art Fair & PHOTO LA Photo Fair.
We extensively cover & interview participating galleries at Art Fairs such as,
Platform LA, Pulse LA, Untitled Art, Art Basel Miami, Art Miami, Miami Project,
The LA Art Book Fair. We provide an extensive overview with Audio walk throughs
and visual presentations with up to 100+ images and or photos per on-line feature.
5.
Many of the original BUREAU of Arts and Culture members have gone on to have
stellar careers in The ARTS. Artists, Filmmakers, Musicians such as: Lucas Reiner,
Spike Jonze, Alex McDowell, Martin Durazo, Ron Riehel, James Gabbard, Christina
Habberstock, Lorna Stovall, Heather VanHaaften, Chris Greco, Richard Rancier,
Mike Wong, Steve Wong, Seth Kaufman, Henry Duarte, Connie Cappos, Kim Johnson,
Lori Kahn, Terry McCatty, Darin Pappas, James Fish + others all had very early
collaborations with The BUREAU Projects. We plan to invite them back in as active
participating members to the non profit. We have been discussing the active role
of a Board of Directors with recent participants such as Bay Area Artist & Lecturer
Joan Schulze, L.A. Photographer Joel Mark, The Native American Artist and Tribal
Representative Dawn Jackson. These have been casual, ' If we were non profit ? '
discussions, but we have been ruminating on the responsibilities in this regard
and it seems there is indeed a groundswell of support and need for the magazine
to exist at this particular level.
We foresee a series of lectures, art sales, book sales and local businesses supporting
the Magazine. Surf, Skate & Bicycle Companies, competitions and festivals all rely
heavily on publications to help disseminate and discuss events and activities that
revolve around their product. In the past few years, we have become a very well
respected publication, More and more, Art, Surf, Biking, Film, Theater, Literature
companies and organizations have invited us to cover events and to be their Official
Media Sponsors. A non profit status will lead to more paper magazines & more
magazines will lead to more advertising as well as more coverage. We will be going
to these thriving industries as well as those we sponsor locally, be it soccer, boxing
or sponsorships through other non profits that specialize in youth programs in the
traditional sports like baseball, football, track & field, basketball, volleyball.
As the Brand Name of BUREAU of Arts and Culture grows, The BUREAU Hats,
Bags, T - Shirts and other merchandise as well as Limited Edition Prints & Art
Items from established Artist's will indeed become a great way to raise awareness
& funds in the magazine, on the website & as incentives to help drive BUREAU
Individual members to receive discounts to local businesses, entry to special events
& magazine delivery. Many of our magazine distributers can carry the brand goods
in their stores & shops.
6.
Editor and Publisher Joshua Triliegi has had hands-on experience raising well
over Fifty Thousand Dollars worth of in kind trades with a Five Thousand dollar
grant from Actor Ben Stiller. Granted, 2007 was a different world, still & all,
Mr Triliegi has a proven track record for creating alliances with diverse cultures
in the Arts. We will approach those Individuals & Companies who have donated
in the past & create new alliances with a non profit status. We believe that the
larger companies that passed the first time around, will begin to stand at attention
& participate with a new tax write off status: Auto, Fashion, Literary, Film, etc.
[ Read Letter of Recommendation by Ben STILLER ]
7.
Joshua Triliegi & BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE has already implemented
the very arduous process of introducing ourselves to many of the Arts, Corporate
and Local Businesses as well as those on the front lines: The Art galleries, The
Artists, The Non Profits within our chosen field, The local business person.
[ See Letter of recommendation by Judy Carmichael ].
Our relationship with ART spaces who have been interviewed/reviewed by BUREAU:
Jack Rutberg, Susanne Vielmetter, Tobey C. Moss, Shoshana Wayne, Known Gallery,
Sabina Lee, The Bowers Museum, The Geffen Contemporary, The Hammer Museum,
The Skirball Cultural Center, Museum of Contemporary Art in LA, San Diego and in
Santa Barbara help to create well earned future partnerships, distribution as well as
a 'word of mouth' that is priceless. Collectively, they have been in the business for
hundreds of years. Not to mention the thousands of readers that have received the
magazine on their doorsteps. Our coverage of the MIAMI Art Fairs with in depth
audio & slide presentations allow us to create a lasting relationship with the 'Big Tent'
art events that allow for fundraising activity. We recently interviewed the Grammy
Museum and are creating a lasting relationship with that important music institute.
The same pattern applies for THEATER: Edgemar, LATC, Circle Theater, Cygnet,
Robey. MUSIC : The Echo, The Redwood, The Roxy, Grammy Museum, Origami,
Vacation, Record Collector, The LA Philharmonic & The San Francisco Philharmonic.
We have created relationships with Film, Music and Art festivals, National & Local
Radio Stations, continuing the tradition created with BUREAU Film projects and
the utilization of Print, Radio and Web to facilitate publicity, fundraising & awareness.
Triliegi Film programs were discussed on KCRW 89.9, KPFK 90.7 and Indie 103 FM
within the non profit umbrella in the past and we plan to sustain & develop those ties.
We were invited to KLOS 95.5 FM [ Bureau mentioned on air] to consider an affiliation.
We recently interviewed Miles Perlich of KJAZZ 88.1 FM and we were given tickets to
Classical Music concerts by K-MOZART Radio & we invited a guest reviewer to attend.
The BUREAU of Arts and Culture Magazine will continue to create a lasting relationship
with the Art Institutes, Media & Schools that drive the Arts in America. We distributed
Paper Editions to OTIS Art School & The Campus at USC to support alignments with
faculty, staff &students who will become future entrepreneurs & participants in the Arts.
BUREAU of ARTS and CULTURE's first edition featured Interviews with many female
creators: Susanne Vielmatter, Ruby Ray, Joan Schulze and Theresa Hwang. The Art
world is often a male dominated & or a caucasian viewpoint, we add a serious literary
& cultural take that is seldom expressed in the mainstream press. BUREAU's Editorials
have been groundbreaking: The Hate Crime Series, Working Class Essays, The Art
Appreciation Essay on Charles Dickson, The Film reviews of Spike Lee, The Theater
Reviews of Roger Guenveur Smith, The Articles in Support of Liemert Park, Jazz at
Barbara Morrison's, Herbie Hancock and The L.A. Philharmonic, Our Interviews with
Union Workers during a possible strike with grocery chains, Our support of Nurses
during a possible strike with hospitals: we were there and we covered these events.
Attention to non profit Issues with Las Fotos Project and Skid Row Housing.
We cover the classical music scene for the everyday person and invite a younger
audience to attend and write their own reviews. K-Mozart Radio provided tickets
to Eek at The Greek & we sent a young hip hop writer to experience and review it.
We not only review, but we contribute an original editorial voice that cuts through
the mainstream and represents a new way of looking at the Arts, which can normally
be extremely insider, ridiculously empiric, resoundingly safe and absurdly artificial.
Commercial Publications can't come close to the type of outsider naiveté mixed with
a sharp and cultural understanding of The Arts that consistently applies value to art.
We feel that with non profit status The Art Institutes that we have mentioned will be
able to provide The magazine with the type of opportunities to affiliate on a completely
larger and direct level. The entire Art World is practically Non Profit with the exception
of The Indie Art galleries, although, most Art Centers & All Museums certainly. We feel
that Film Festivals, Art & Music Museums, Bicycle Events such as Ciclivia, X Games for
Skateboarding and even those who have passed first time around: Automobile industry,
Alcohol and Soda Beverage, Fashion Industry, Film Industry may eventually join in.
Meanwhile, we know that wealthy private individuals will consider supporting a magazine
that provides good interviews, delivers door to door, provides an educated dialog on
The Arts in America and allows for a tax write off of the extra income that many wealthy
individuals are currently generating. We live on The West Coast: Actors, Sports Figures,
Real Estate Moguls, Telecommunication Companies, Media Companies, Radio Stations
need to fulfill their extra income with philanthropic opportunities and we provide it.
