The Shooting Gallery : Time Machine - New Works by Samuel Lowder.
Comment by AB: We're going back to the good old days, referencing the golden age of cinema in particular, spiced up with kaleidoscopic backdrops and an occasional surrealistic twist.

White Walls Gallery : Can't Afford To Be Broke - New Works from Word To Mother.
Comment by AB: London artist Word to Mother declares his agenda directly in your face. He's prodigiously irked at how the 1% bleed every last cent out of the other 99, including pulling teeth when necessary, as the installation in the center of the gallery attests. Can the wealthy ever have too much? Not so far.

Lopo Gallery : Lust for Life - Helen Bayly.
Review by Clare Coppel: Modern debauchery Victorian style with a religious twist-- booze, sex, nuns and fine lines. Bizarre and lovely at once.
Comment by AB: Interesting work. Stop on by.
