Two years ago today, Leena Similu and I did this special photo shoot in the gallery with our kids and her artworks, after finally meeting in person for the first time. I adore these pictures, this artist, her Cosmo. 💋

In the spring of this year, by chance I met Joshua Oduga during his visit to Portland. We visited artist studios together and ate Nong’s Kao Man G*i with sidony o’neal. We talked about art, astrology, and how we work to holistically integrate our devotion to parenting with our devotion to art. Since that first meeting, Joshua has become one of the most important people I’ve met in my professional and personal life. It has been nothing short of life affirming to find an ally in the art world at this particular point in my career.

Through our shared commitment to art and to new ways of working, Joshua and I recently decided to work together when and where it makes sense. Together we collaborate on a range of projects in an organic and authentic way, building upon our excitement around art and singular artists. We are thrilled to share with you Oduga | Jablonski - LINK IN BIO for more information, and please stay tuned.

I’ve been waiting to see the Joan Mitchell exhibition, and it was truly beautiful.

The is a stunning venue with a enviable permanent collection - they are doing it all so right!! I saw a wonderful installed to perfection; a projection piece that I loved; strong works by ; an INSANE Sam Francis beveled canvas, a sculpture I wished to take home with me; these perfect Stanley Whitney stained glass windows; a González-Torres that I know my friend Tony Feher would have adored; a thoughtful and gorgeous solo by - the list goes on and on. It was all organized and installed to perfection.

and the entire BMA team: what an absolutely wonderful day of art viewing, thank you.

John Houck’s works are grounded in his background in architecture and often incorporate the domestic and highly personal object. Well known for his works in the realm of photography, our exhibition serves as the debut presentation of a new direction for Houck - oil on canvas.
