Project Description:

"Mark Lombardi (1951-2000) draws on the major political and financial scandals of the day to create large-scale linear diagrams that at first glance look like celestial maps; a closer reading reveals the intricate web of connections that lurk beneath current headlines. From Whitewater to the Vatican Bank, Lombardi uses dotted lines and broken arrows to chart the paths of illicit deals and laundered money, keeping track of it all in a handwritten database of 12,000 index cards. By scrutinizing the mutable boundaries that separate artistic practice from daily life, Lombardi wrings visual poetry out of dirty secrets--the results are a chillingly beautiful guide to the facts of life."

thrilled.

our pal kyle is going to help us put castors on the bottom, so I can move the drawers around if I want.

once it's raised about 2.5 inches it'll be the perfect height for standing up and cutting things!

 

Was in my element yesterday. It felt damn good. Thanks to my friend Marc for the outing.

 

This was my first time in a place with permission, and that also felt very good. An old machine shop in NJ that opened in 1851. The building is owned by someone else (who is letting the building fall apart, according to Chad), but all the contents are still under the care of Chad, a direct descendent of the family who started working there in 1950, and aside from his time in the service, has been there ever since. He's working towards having everything moved to a farm in order to open a museum.

 

Chad is a wonderful man, very friendly (and very talkative!) who has been extremely generous with his time allowing photographers to traipse all through the building over and over again. He said all the "weird" ones get really excited over the mannequin that I got really excited about when I first walked in. :)

 

Lots of shots to come, that I suppose I will post sporadically in between these daily SPs, and probably a blog post with my favorites.

Tubes upon tubes upon tubes. I’ve recently stocked up on a bunch of older stock Reynolds and True Temper tubing and the flat file is full. Looking forward to cutting and heating it up! #reynoldstubing #reynolds853 #truetemper #oxplatinum #flatfile #bicyclebuilding #chapmancycles

unless of course you're allergic to cats...then this probably looks like torture

This was the set up for my open studio in 2001, Oakland. The large painting of the eye is based on a sketch book image. All the paintings displayed were based on one particular sketch book and all the images were "figurative".

New experimental drawings in states of completeness.

This area features two IKEA tables, just assembled, and two of IKEA flat files placed under the tables. I really love this new setup.

March 3, 3:27 PM. The Compound Gallery & Studios, Oakland.

Opening Friday September 4

5 Points First Friday, 6 to 9pm

 

Flat File Gallery presents Show OFF, photographs by Bill Yates and the late Loyd Sandgren. The exhibition pairs Sandgren’s images of Jacksonville, Florida wrestling events from the early 1960s with Yates’ images taken in 1972 and 1973 of the Sweetheart Roller Skating Rink located in rural Hillsborough County. The opening takes place on First Friday of 5 Points, 5 Points' monthly block party featuring live music, art, dining, shopping, and entertainment in every direction.

 

In conjunction with the exhibition, Flat File Gallery will also present the film Pumping Iron (1977) in the 5 Points Theater at 9pm. Watch five-time Mr. Olympia champion, Arnold Schwarzenegger, in his first film, defend his title by ruthlessly psyching out the shy, young, deaf Lou Ferrigno (of the 1977 TV series fame, “The Incredible Hulk”).

 

Both photographers documented graphic, physical performances where the actors paraded their bodies and physically confronted one another for an audience. Sandgren records the melodrama of the wrestling events. With wrestlers twisting each other’s limbs and choking one another with chains, the scenes are unapologetically theatrical. Though the roller skaters may not have thought of themselves on a stage, they are no less explicit and physical in their stagecraft. Young men aggressively wrap arms around their girlfriends’ necks and uncomfortably gesture for the camera. Part-scripted, part-documentary, Show OFF focuses on these various characters’ exaggerated exhibitionism, all of whom show off in particularly unsubtle and graphic ways. The physicality of the roller skaters’ sexual come-ons eerily resembles the wrestlers’ machismo inside the ring and Schwarzenegger’s virility on film. The uncensored performances by each group are the dominant element throughout Show OFF.

 

Flat File Gallery provides easy access to provocative, quality, and truly affordable works of art focusing on photography and works on paper by local and emerging Jacksonville artists.

Like previous panoramics it is an edition of 1200 offset prints. Approximately 39 x 8 in on 80lb cover stock with a mat coating. Each is signed and numbered by one of us.

We are releasing a new panoramic in about 10 days. Its debuting at the upcoming Giant Robot Biennale at the Japanese American National Museum which opens on October 24th, 2009.

I went down to clean up my messy studio and decided to instead capture it with a collage of Fuji Instax images, as is.

 

[Mouse over for explanations]

From a March, 2007 trip to the abandoned Bethlehem Shipyard offices, a four-story 1917 Beaux Arts office building in San Francisco's Dogpatch neighborhood. Access was difficult, climbing tall fences and crawling in through a basement window, but the building was a spectacular ruin inside. Ensuing years saw it fall into extreme decline, until it was meticulously renovated in 2020. It's now an upscale furniture store and restaurant.

Large flat files most likely used for storing maps. It was located in the enlisted men's quarters and was most liley moved here from one of the offices.

This is an amazing set that was sent to us by a reader--it's pretty incredible. It currently lives on top of the flatfiles in the new Studio, where we can play with it when we're supposed to be working.

600 drawings 4x4 2019, is the result of a drawing project — making at least one drawing each day. This project involved the use of four-inch squares of paper of various weights, colors, and surfaces. I found that many small pieces could be cut out of remnants of paper in my studio.

 

Year long projects help expand my vocabulary, they create new phrases and expletives. Join me to see the hundreds of drawings I made in this series.

books in process . . . cover and jacket proofs . . .

I have always wanted a flat file cabinet for my art room that I could use for storing large format paper. Recently I came across this one not being used in the warehouse at work -- I think at one time it held site layout and wiring drawings and building blueprints, but those have been moved to a horizontal flat file, so I was able to snag this one cheap. Although I would love a horizontal flat file with drawers, I don't really have the space for one, so this is perfect as the footprint is much smaller.

I acquired an old typesetter's flat file. It's 24 drawers of solid steel and particle board. It took about a week to clean off the ink and rust, but it was well worth it. I may never need another drawer, ever again.

Does everyone have this trouble with their flat files...or is it just us? haha.
