Videos and other things.

My Solo show has come and gone and it was a great success for me. I was
reviewed in The New Yorker, and a Time out New York critic's pick. I will be on
the cover of next month's (July) issue of an international art magazine, (more
on that later). This will be my first ever Magazine cover and I am very excited
about it. I am working on two multiples for Philadelphia based company Cereal
art. The first, a replica of my exploding paint can sculpture, should be out by
September. The Second Multiple that I am working on with them is a birdhouse
based on a birdhouse sculpture from my last solo show.

I have a solo show opening in New York at Eleven Rivington Gallery Friday the
21st of March. This will be my first solo show in New York in three years and
it is my first with Eleven Rivington Gallery. There will be a small catalog
accompanying the show with an essay by the amazing David Graeber.

I have added a few images to the Art page. Some of the works from the Cereal
art show which went really well. It was amazing showing with Jonas Wood. He is
a great artist! I am working for a bunch of group shows for the fall and for my
upcoming solo show in New York this spring. I am very excited about it! Please
check back for updates. I will try to update this site more frequently. Thanks

Caccamise News.
I just added a lot of new images to the Art page of my site. These images are
of works from my two summer shows. I have recently completed a large group of
new sculptures and I will try to have them photographed to put up here soon. I
am currently having a lot of studio visits and working on a lot of new work
which I am excited about. I also just got back from my month long trip to Seoul
Korea, which was amazing. I will put a link to my flickr page soon. I may have
a show in Philly in April. I hope it happens so I will get an excuse to visit my
occasional old stomping ground and home of cheese steaks and Rita's Water Ice.

Both of my summer shows have opened and I am very happy with both of them.
Palette at Greenberg Van Doren has already closed but it received a number of
very favorable reviews including one in the New York Times written by Roberta
Smith and one in Time Out New York by Merrily Kerr. The K48 Kampsite show was
featured on the Art Forum Diary page last week and was featured in Time Out New
York as a pick of the week.

I just finished my part of the installation for the show at Greenberg Van Doren
which opens tomorrow. I think that the show looks amazing! See the installation
shot below.

I just updated my site a bit and added a few new pictures to the art page. I
have tons of new sculptures and drawings to add but I don't have good photos of
them yet. I guess I will make a more through update soon. I met super-artist
Charles Ray this week at my job, and I shaved my head. Nintendogs.

I will be in a large group show at the John Connelly Presents gallery that will
open on August fourth. It is called K.48 Kampsite and should be amazing. I am
really happy to be included in a show with so many other amazing artists. I am
busy getting ready to move out of our wonderful house and preparing for, what
should be, a very busy fall schedule of shows.
This past week I ended my business relationship with Sixtyseven Gallery. Over
the past three years they have been really a terrific place for me to get my
start but I felt it was time for me to move on.

Got Two old videos working on the Videos page. The upcoming Show at Greenburg
Van Doren Gallery is opening on July 12 and runs through August 18. I am
working on about Eight new pieces for this show and I am happy with the way they
are turning out.
May 21 2006
I just managed to successfully upload some of my older videos to the Videos page
on my site. Unfortunately, I could only get older videos to upload properly.
Hopefully I will be able to get my newer ones to work soon. I am currently
working on new pieces for my summer shows and I am on the market for a new
studio. I am making some oil paintings and a video featuring a glowing skull
with flashlight eyes. Scroll to the bottom of this page for a
surprise.(Surprise removed)

I am currently in a two person show at the Annet Gelink Gallery in Amsterdam
with fellow New York Artist Ellen Berkinblit
I am going to be in two group shows this summer. The first one will be at the
Greenburg Van Doren Gallery in New York in July and the second will be at John
Connelly Presents also in New York in August.
This month the new issue of Issue Magazine comes out with a very nice piece on
me with a lot of pictures.
