gargamel mark nagata apak le merde not everyone is customizing a figure some are just doing a painting some are doing both a tiny interview with martin grass hut so you graduated from cal arts along with the inventor of the power puff girls do you see any common trends in line work and character design from the artists who go through that school martin there were two schools of animation at calarts experimental and character i was in the former which meant that we were allowed to do anything we wanted traditional cell or 3d or whatever at our own pace and with minimal structure we were encouraged to explore our own visions and explore new ways of making animated films experimental worked more from the angle of animation as short art films than as something that would develop into a series on tv not to say that alumni from there didn t wind up doing such things for example stephen hillenburg who created spongebob squarepants henry selick director of nightmare before christmas and others jorge gutierrez creator of el tigre and brad bird who worked on the simpsons and is the genius behind pixar were all from my program i never made a film myself though character animation which was the school that craig mckracken graduated from was way more structured in that it taught students everything from the mechanics of constructing a film to the history of animation to character design itself a true program with teachers straight out of the industry itself most of them were really young right out of high school versus the older crowd of experimental and were actively following what was going on at the time in popular animation all fans of the same stuff and all impressionable by what they dreamed of being a part of when i started calarts indie and alternative animation was just gaining popularity ren and stimpy spike and mike nickolodeon and later on cartoon network s original programming so suddenly there was more to offer than just getting a job at disney more opportunity to be a maverick in line work and character design and if not that than at least more productions to get a job on so i guess the answer is yes jesus could i have spent more time answering this gh how is this new show at the hut different from the solo you had at giant robot the other month m the gr2 show wound up being a catharsis of all these emotions i had been harboring for the year prior the art was the natural outcome of having gone through some heavy stuff and yet having worked and created through it regardless resulting in some of my best work to date like drinking a mix of all kinds of things that aren t necessarily good for you and puking out rainbows in the end having said that i think it exhausted me in a way too i m still too burned out to load the new stuff with all the color that went into gr2 this new show is a switch to something simpler lighter in mood subject and spectrum and just plain fun it s all about my deep love for rock n roll and heavy metal combined with mythology and the cheesier the composition the better it s a new year a lot of things have been resolved or are on another more positive course i m in strange new territory and i want to have fun when this is all over i ll get back to the big color thing gh what s ojo rojo s story what s he stand for m story i guess you could say he s a bit of an alter ego he smiles all the time he has cooler hair than me his fashion sense is somewhat glam which is a look that i could never pull off he s a character i can throw into any piece and he would brighten it up i don t know if it s the grin the hair or the boots but he gets some good response his name is kind of a fluke i tend not to title things until the last minute i like to see what i come up with spur of the moment in his case i was titling everything in the show he premiered in after rock song titles and since he had red eyes i used ojo rojo from a fu manchu song i wish it could be more extravagant a story than that but there you have it good song too gh what s you connection with the japanese kaiju monster toy company gargamel how is gargamel different from other kaiju makers m i met and became aware of gargamel through bwana spoons we shared a room with them at comic con 2006 they knew very little english we knew very little japanese and we had a blast regardless i m not the biggest expert on vinyl out there i don t collect much since i don t have the money plus i m really selective about what i get and won t buy something just because it s the hot thing out there so my opinion is sort of limited about the vinyl world it s really up to the tastes of the makers and collectors as to what s cool that said i love gargamel best personally because they are in league with my taste in kaiju they hail back to the aesthetic glory of bullmark and marusan the older days of vinyl i don t really see anyone else out there doing it that way except super 7 and max toy and that s why i m into gargamel that we are pals with a strong mutual admiration for each other s work is just the icing on the cake those guys are fun gh what is going to make 2008 two thousand great m grass hut duh and going to japan for the first time that will definitely help 0 comments tuesday january 1 2008 fairytales fairytales photographs by alicia j rose a re imagining of 3 classic grimm s fairy tales opens january 4 2008 through jan 28 grass hut gallery 811 e burnside portland or 97214 tel 503 445 9924 fairytales is the debut exhibition of a new series of photographs by portland photographer and artist alicia j rose seen through a keen eye of childhood dispossession and vivid color drenched fantasy rose delves deep into the dark side of grimms most harrowing tales held dear in her youth known mostly for her work with rock bands and ballet dancers with fairytales rose invites the viewer into an inner world where her imagination is laid bare and her fevered visions are brought to big bold life pushing the boundaries of perception rose s fairytales are striking gender amorphous visions of hope fear possession and the mis adventures of losing ones innocence culled from a burgeoning and beautifully disturbed imagination rose s work is filled with impossibly bright colors chiaroscuro lighting and purposeful composition using a medium format hasselblad camera lush high grain film stock and a combination of natural and artificial light she creates all her images in camera without the aid of post camera darkroom special effects or computer programs with characters cast from her friends and favorite performance circles sissyboy queer bait splendora the gender fluids and a handful of remarkable tales to tell with a spooky forest at bay fairytales was shot over a moody and blustery weekend on sauvie island at her friend pennie lane s rock and roll ranch in november 2007 over 25 limited edition archival prints collected from the 3 tales will be shown at grass hut gallery in january view more fairytales about the artist once upon a time long long ago a little girl lost the ability to remember her dreams in picture books and aging tomes she took shelter in the grandiose images they generated in her imagination the girl grew up making music with an accordion that she always described as soundtracks to films in her head eventually the pictures she was making music for became larger than her music could properly accompany or her small head could possibly contain the girl then took up another instrument a camera that allowed her the proper sight necessary to capture the stories that had been running amok in her skull for years and share them with other sets of eyes everywhere fairytales is a follow up to her 2006 exhibition ballet supreme press club pdx and her 2003 show histrionic genuine imitation gallery pdx and was created in part as a companion to her upcoming musical release hearts daggers a collaboration with violinist vocalist petra haden set for release in early 2008 by file under music 1 comments older posts home subscribe to posts atom about grass hut we are a studio gallery shop the studio is home to bwana spoons and justin scrappers
