418 Bamboo Lane
Sean Cheetham, Shizu Saldamando, Marci Washington, Joshua Petker, Siuan McGahan, David Glynn, Todd Becraft, Paige Wery. Bamboo Lane / Revisited is pleased to announce this compelling exhibit of portraits by 8 Los Angeles based artists. The conception of this exhibit has been unfolding over the last year, prompted by much discussion amongst critics & art patrons alike, regarding the constant debate of a perceived lack of skill in much art execution versus the seemingly unskilled execution of conceptual art, questioning the validity of each in exhibition worthiness. In addition, the point of artists' worthiness based on resume versus skill is a constant, open to further debate. Specifically included in the exhibit is an assortment of manner - from classical to naïve, & of broad background - from self-taught to those who have received their Masters of Fine Arts Degree. The artists have a driving connection with the people around them who inspire them as painters & are many times the subjects of their work. This human connection may be proposed advantage in favor of work by those who paint people & those who do not. May 2005Create:Fixate "Deluxe" -A very special Create:Fixate with 21 fine artists included in this event: painters, photographers, sculptors of all types and artistic filmmakers, as well as live music and dj's.

Revisited is a fabulous gallery, that is an adventure to get to, but a real treat to find. From the Silverlake Arts Collective webpage: "[Revisited] is quickly gaining recognition as an exciting venue to view innovative work by Los Angeles artists. Located in a 9-story industrial building shared by seamstress shops - people love the New York feel of the Gold Line passing by the 3rd floor window & the juxtaposition of the path to the gallery revealing this gem with white walls." March 2004Siuan will be showing a new collection of small works with
