L’Oeil Ouvert kicks off Indian Summer with “Spirit of California.”

This is the season when Parisiens re-enter The City. Though most Parisiens have returned to anchor at home port,“Spirit of California” will fill your sails with freedom and space!

From September 18, photographers, printmakers, lino-engravers will exhibit together in the Gallery, sharing their most beautiful California drenched visions of light, heat and beautiful energy. Discover the work of each artist as he envisions California, immersed in this innovative, dynamic and creative region, and of other artists, who have traveled the great spaces of California and were inspired by it’s wonders.

FICO, Robin Santus, Ingrid Sissung, Chuck Sperry, will accompany new artists Eric Rewitzer and Annie Galvin of 3 Fish Studios with Thierry Lewenberg-Sturm. Together they exhibit new works available in limited editions prints.

On the occasion of this exhibition, l’Oeil Ouvert offers a workshop with Californian artist Eric Rewitzer.

It has been deeply rewarding working with Nick Cave to produce this poster for his wildly successful North American tour. Mr. Cave contacted me directly in June 2013 in regard to a t-shirt design for Grinderman based on a poster I made for him in 2010. Nick opened the email by saying he had finally framed his Grinderman at The Warfield poster and put it in his kitchen; he also mentioned that it is the only rock poster he had ever framed and put in his house. Conversation over the next few months lead to my design for Nick Cave & The Bad Seed’s North American Tour. I based my design on “The Lyre of Orpheus,” depicting Eurydice, Orpheus’ lover. Wouldn’t you know it, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds belted out this song at the end of their incredibly great concert at The Warfield!

Had a fantastic meeting with Nick after the show in sanctum sanctorum of The Warfield. Thanks go out to my bros Justin Katz and Tony Zoffman for a super warm welcome at The Warfield. And what followed was a great conversation about future projects with Mr. Cave (photos by Ben Clarke):
