“Iyollo Gallery was a concept I’ve had as a young painter. Houston’s art scene 10 years ago was different than today. There were limited venues to show work of a certain style. I fell into the category of “PM” work, according to most restaurants, art spaces, galleries, and non-profits. They viewed the art as a little dark or disturbing. I feel the most impressive art is work that communicates the environment of each period. If everyone is creating “AM” work, work that is comfortably displayed in a lobby. Carrying no emotion, no deduction to the paint, the excitement of creating something new, or the heart to display what you really want to express. Then that art is muted, neutered from what that work could have been. I’d like to display “PM” work outside of warehouses in bad neighborhoods, I’d like to display the work of people having to show in poorly lit bars because of a lack of support. Iyollo’s mission is to bring respect to underground work of local artist and underground artist from around the world.” – george m., curator and owner of Iyollo Gallery

also, at the Continental Club Houston, a night of music and art featuring Karina Nistal, DubTex, DeSangre and others, with visual artists Christian Navarrete, Azul Frida and Julie Zarate:

I can’t figure out what exactly the problem is, it’s ongoing, and only seems to happen when i try to update my resume. [which is why it only goes up to late 2009 and still missing shows that i had participated in]. when i can finally access it [it just comes back on its own, my host has been absolutely NO help nor returned any of my emails/calls, but i guess that's what you get for lifetime hosting on the cheap], i will remove the resume and all the bullets [i'm guessing it's all the coding that WP and my host can't handle] and make it much simpler.

if anyone has ever had this problem before and has found a solution, please let me know. i’d even updated my WP files but that didn’t seem to help.

much appreciated.

if you’re on facebook, please add me for updates there: FACEBOOK PAGE.

i’m doing Artopia this weekend at winter street studios;
i also have some work at Gallery ChimMaya in l.a. for their big winter sale;
Amor Eterno is just around the corner at the Continental Club Houston;
Once again, participating in El Corazon exhibition at Dallas Bath House Cultural Center;
and you can find my work at Betz Gallery on W. Gray in Houston.

cheers.

[this photo is from stephanie's collection, which can be found here]

later that evening was an impromptu afterparty at the continetal club. silly photos taken there. and for once, i was actually in front of the camera, thanks to my son julian and my sister victoria.

big thanks to DJ Supa Dupa Big Lush who was really cooking with some sweet sweet old school chingona tracks, and big thanks to Roberto and Los Pistoleros De Texas who got people up and shaking their booty [including me]. my calves are still on fire.

i’m so happy to know these very talented ladies and call them friends. we’re hoping we can do this again next november. but before then, we’ve got our eye on more Chingona related shows. stay tuned. ;)

all photos from the set are here.
