Weird when you don’t post for a while cuz you are too busy, but then that seems to be when lots of people decide to finally check out your blog, and email you about your site. Hopefully, the 548 posts leading up to this one are enough to keep newbies busy, and my “die hard fans” (HA!) will stick with me through the slower weeks.<\/p>\n
Anyhow, there have been some interesting openings around these parts lately, including Frances Goodman @ Goodman (no relation, as far as I know) and a trio show at ArtSpace, with works by cobus van bosch, jp meyer and varenka pasche.<\/p>\n
