"False Positives" are deaths attributed to the clashes between the Colombian army and illegal armed groups paramilitary. The work of Freddy Osorio is elemental, expressive, and significantly direct. Conceptual through its realization, the work develops a journalistic social function, a narrative disclosure sample this brings a topic of much interest, present and controversy,

Osorio creates a discussion and opinion that the viewer sees in motivation, while finding a way to search for the truth.

I wouldn't past it that this would put a shot into the the arm of the Art Market being such a diverse and wide spreading collection. The man had such love and eye for the work, it's amazing.

I can only imagine how many video artist they are in Miami who could probably send in work....

Very strong show at a great space, and well shown. The concept was a little loose, and some of the work fell a bit flat for me, just because of very little personality to it, but the majority of the show had a very great presence.

Choe vs. Britto

To paraphrase a great man, “Art is nothing but Bitches and Money!”

Even though these articles in Juxtapoz and and the Miami New Times are both old news right now, being from last month, I thought it was a bit kismet that both came to my attention at the same time, and I focused on the differences between David Choe and Romero Britto.

WHA?

Yeah, I know. Looking at these two, Choe a constant artist, L.A. Born and Bred man of action, living on the very edge of most norms, socially, spiritually, and even physically, striving for more, and Britto which could be the poster child with everything that is wrong with art and well, Miami, to a certain degree.

Both come from humble beginning and both are not humble in their work. Troubled pasts haunt both men, their motives are known and worn on the shoulder but widely different, and both take the eye somewhere; Choe to himself, Britto to some vapid space he wants to convince you is good... or into a wall.

I could go on and on about this, but really I'd rather for you, dear reader, have a chance to read and get into these two, and see what I'm seeing; two sides of the same coin, of two artist that could be possibly close on paper, but vary in such a way that it's mind boggling.

Unfortunately, Miami got Tails, and has to deal with Britto. Luckily, we have some hope and guys like Choe are out there, giving us hope that something beautiful can come from shit.

An amazing show of what a new interface like IPAD could be for an artist. Even though there something to be said of the tactile feel of a brush or a piece of charcoal, I don't this is any less of tool than those of a traditional way. They're tools, and nothing can be said much of tool other than it's use, and of it's merit, only what has been done, can be analyzed.

We had something like that with one of the Artist. Juan Patino, at our weekly Figure Drawing Sessions the image was done on his Wacom and Laptop. Can one really argue about a tool then? Not really
