'Head over Heels' is Amandalynn's solo art show, currently on display at Cassel Gallery in San Francisco. The show will be coming to a close at the end of July, with a closing reception on Saturday, July 23rd. Inspired by silent film actresses and showgirls of the 1920's-40's, Amandalynn pays tribute to these women by capturing them in provocative yet classy portraits. She is also displaying some custom pieces of sculpture, furniture, and of course, high heels!  Amandalynn collaborated on pieces with one of her favorite photographers, Erin Ashford, who contributed pieces from her continuing queer burlesque series  from the South. This particular set of imagery was inspired by Josephine Baker of the Harlem Renaissance. Other contributing artists include :  Megan Shaffer, Margaretta, Prairie Prince, Christa Baker, Lily Seo, and Susan Grazier. The closing reception will take place at the Cassel Gallery in San Francisco on Saturday, July 23rd, 2011, from 8pm-11pm and the show will continue to be open for viewing until the end of July. Please contact Amandalynn ( Alynnpaint@gmail.com ) or Monique ( CasselGallery@goorin.com ) for more information.

Conserving Caro

Last week, I joined up again with Tracy Powers Objects Conservation team, and Lucien Shapiro, to restore a Caro sculpture in Healdsburg. The clearcoat layer that had been applied several years ago and in several layers was failing and creating a white/chalky appearance all over the piece. After many, many insane hours of using very strong stripping agents and scraping we managed to remove most all of the coating. We will be going back to seal the piece later this summer. It was once again, a very strenuous and tedious job, but had a great crew to help power through....

Conserving Louise Nevelson's 'Ocean's Gate'

I just finished up a big project yesterday with Tracy Powers and her conservation crew. We cleaned up, patched up and refinished Louise Nevelson's sculpture, 'Ocean's Gate', which is on display at the de Young Museum in San Francisco. It was a tedious process, but with help of Tracy and her crew, it turned out to be a success. We also had great help from the de Young conservation staff, led by Lesley Bone. For a complete break down of the process check out the de Young blog http://deyoung.famsf.org/blog/conserving-louise-nevelson-s-ocean-gate
