I was recently asked to be part of a show by curator/artist, Rich Jacobs. The show, “There is Xerox on the Insides of Your Eyelids; Skate Zine Art from the ’80s and Beyond,” opened last weekend at the Needles and Pens gallery in San Francisco. I was very happy to be a part of it and flattered Jacobs asked me, as I would be in the company of folks who’d had positive influences in my early creative life. You can find a few shots of the work and opening here and here. There’s also a write-up and links on the Rodger Bridges Strange/Beautiful blog.
And check out a really good interview with Rich Jacobs (in a photo by Bernie McGinn above) at Fecal Face. The man is maybe one of the kindest, most positive people you’ll ever meet. And he’s motivated. He’s talking about traveling the zine show after its engagement in San Francisco. I have a feeling it will be expanding as well.
A book? Come on, Rich, let’s do it.
I’m hoping for an actual reunion of all these couch-touring Xerox machine kooks. That would be fantastic.
