About

http://www.littlepaperplanes.com
**An online store bringing together a community of artists.**

An online store where artists can sell their limited edition prints, jewelry, t-shirts, tote bags, accessories and other one of kind items. The store started out as a place where I could sell things I made to help support me while I focus on painting. Then I started selling my friends art as well and then they had friends and so on. Now its a community of friends of friends of all over coming together by making art and having it available to the public on little paper planes. I feel honored to get to help sell all the amazing pieces these artists make.

John Buck

Woman of the House, 1999

Longview, 2008

Remember the Maine, 2007

John Buck's mastery of his material is inspirational. He's the King of Wood. Or The Wood Boss. In any case, he can carve anything, but as a 3d draftsmen giving volume to lines. He always makes certain these forms serve his concept, which is born from a wide range of historical inspiration, and social consciousness of contemporary issues such as dwindling natural resources. Apparently he also carves a huge array of realistic objects that for whatever reason don't end up in his work. Buck's skills extend to woodcuts on the scale of 8 by 4 feet, and, most recently, kinetic wooden sculptures.

You can view more of his works at Paule Anglim or his own site.

Brion Nuda Rosch at Baer Ridgway Gallery- Saturday Night!


It is my pleasure to announce the talented, Brion Nuda Rosch's solo show opening Saturday night at Baer Ridgway Gallery in San Francisco.
This show will not disappoint and my anticipation is building as tomorrow approaches. We are extra excited for this show, since here at LPP we have been working with Brion for the past three months on book showcasing his work. The book is due to release early 2010 so keep your eye out for that.
In the meantime, go see his show.

The opening is from 4-7 and will be on display through January 2, 2010.

The NY MOMA is currently showing Bauhaus: Workshops for Modernity 1919-1933. It's the first major Bauhaus exhibition since '38! was wishing I could go, and then realized an exhibition site exists. If you, too, don't live in NYC and are interested in "the most influential school of avant-garde art, design, and architecture of the twentieth century," you can learn more here. Incidentally I took the Kandinsky questionaire and matched color and shape in the same way that he predicted most people would.

P.S. If you're so inclined and crazy enough, all of the works in the exhibition may be viewed here in the form of an 80 page PDF.

Alex Lukas at Glowlab, NYC


LPP friend, Alex Lukas has a show up at Glowlab in NYC currently! I am always fond of his paintings depicting some aftermath of doomed civilization. Despite an ominous tone they can give, they are beautifully made which makes me want to keep looking. It is almost like a car crash, you don't want to look but you cannot help it. These fictionalized pieces draw you in and keep you deep inside the painting, hoping to discover the story.

If you are in the NYC area, go see his solo show, The Eventuality of Daybreak
The show runs through December 6th.
30 Grand Street between Thompson St. and 6th Ave.

In the 1970s, Rainer Wehinger created an “aural score” using this system of symbols to mark the notes/sounds.
