Robert Mars "Notes from the road" Solo show opening at Hubert Gallery, New York.

I have a solo show opening at Hubert Gallery in New York City. The opening will be held on Saturday, September 26th, 2009 from 3-6PM.

The show is titled "Notes from the road" and consists of a series of paintings taken from a recent roadtrip across America.

Please stop by the gallery if you are around the area. It should be a great opening! It is located blocks from the Whitney and the Metropolitan so you can make it a day of art.

Gallery information can be located here.

Neon Graveyard in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Last time I visited Las Vegas I made a point of braving the 100 degree heat (dry heat!) to see the Neon Museum located in North Las Vegas. It's a wonderland for neon lovers. The non-profit organization has collected the old neon signs as they are torn down in Sin City and stores them in a multi-acred lot.

You can set up a tour and photograph as much as you like. Many of the neon signs are sans neon tubing and they are weathered from the years which makes them more beautiful in my opinion. One of their more recent acquisitions was the Stardust sign which was in multiple pieces.

Here are some shots from my excursion.

Jeff Schaller solo show at Brett Wesley Gallery, Las Vegas.

Jeff Schaller currently has a solo show running at Brett Wesley Gallery in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show is titled "Popstart" and features 9 pieces of Jeff's incredibly detailed encaustic paintings. Here is a quote from the gallery press release:

Provocative and whimsical, Schaller propels the viewer into scenes of seemingly unrelated subjects, his own captivating and complex sonatas. Simultaneously, they are pop and edgy, esoteric and direct. Using encaustic paints (a bees-wax based paint mixed with pigment) Schaller uses lost and found images, words and language, to paint with a precision and intricacy not normally found in encaustic paintings. His approach is expressionistic, contemporary, and painterly, with powerful brush strokes that are set instantaneously.

If you are in Las Vegas you should stop by the show which is being held at the Newport Lofts, 200 Hoover Ave. in penthouse suite 2109 while the gallery at 1112 Casino Center is undergoing extensive renovations.

You can see more of Jeff's work here and here.
