Here is a link to two slow-pan panorma things of a show I did a few years ago of "mostly abstract comics" art in Mogelsberg St. Gallen Switzerland in Ernesto Müller's gallery.

Only The Cinema’s Best Comics of the Decade
yowza!
ReplyDeletethat looks like it was a cool show!
crazy stuff.
my only complaint is that it seemed too "neat" & "organized", but that's just me, i prefer a messy aesthetic of overload shutdown shit strewn allover the floor & weird hippies smokin' hash in the corner & some doomsludge band plaing on loud amps & skaters rollin' around etc etc
i dig the hi-tech'd 360° viewaround, the show actually looked really eyesum.
how was it critically received?
i've been reading old issues of Kunstforum International lately & i think perhaps it's the most indepth artmag on the planet & have massive review sections.
i'm curious because i'm still wondering how & if most Americans will be receptive to abstract comics...i think most Europeans are more open to the formal boundary pushing because it seems many more Europeans have a higher exposure to comics which could be considered "conceptual" to a degree...
...actually, i'll shut up now.

Thanks TroyLloyd! It went over wonderfully --- but i agree with your desire for a "messier" approach --- I usually DO do that, and usually have a huge walk-in installation comic (as you probably know from the anthology and other posts). This gallery wanted to try and do a "straight ahead" almost show. I let them, except fro the "kiosk" corner. I think it was fine, but not a thrilling as when they "let me loose"!
