A curatorial undertaking will be erected and directed by us, the AiRs, very soon. In roughly a month, Each of us four apartment-dwellers will be inviting an artist or writer that we know and love to exhibit and/or read in Spartanburg at Hub-Bub’s Showroom. One of my first round draft picks was Lou Joseph, an art-making machine. I have included two links as a window into the Creative World of Lou. the first s a review of his mid-career retrospective now on display in Baltimore entitled “Search Engine.” The second is a link to photos of this elaborate and expansive installation.
Lou is one of the many talented, inspired, and hard-working artists and writers that will be displayed at the AiR Inviational. The opening reception is February 16th at the Showroom…I hope to see you there!
