Rick Lowe, acclaimed for art-as-urban-recovery, returns to L.A. for a residency at Otis College, in the Graduate Public Practice Department. The Houston-based artist and activist, who planted the seed for Project Row Houses 15 years ago, will be back in town to spend nine weeks helping graduate students in the schools Public Practice program, who are training to create art in the civic realm.
Lowes chief accomplishment is Project Row Houses, which he launched in Houston in 1993. The initial work of rehabbing 22 abandoned homes in the city’s Third Ward as a community center serving both aesthetic and social ends has grown to 40 structures, according to the Project Row Houses website. Michael Kimmelman, art critic of the New York Times, wrote in 2006 that it may be the most impressive and visionary public art project in the country.
After getting Project Row Houses off the ground, Lowe came to Watts starting in 1994 and tried to do the same. The Watts House Project was the focus of his contribution to Uncommon Sense, a spring 1997 group exhibition of conceptual art at L.A.s Museum of Contemporary Art Lowes installation at MOCAs Geffen Contemporary was a three-room house-cum-information center that told viewers what he was trying to accomplish a few miles away in Watts. In his review, Times art critic Christopher Knight wrote that the artist’s open-ended ideas for loosely coordinated community projects that don’t require massive infusions of funds — or numbing civic bureaucracy — together make for a vibrant sense of possibility marked by welcome pragmatism. The Geffens ‘model home’ offers inspiring information, but the real project is rightly taking place far beyond museum walls.

“Brain Candy” is a 12 part series of acrylic paintings from 2005.
The intention of this series is to poke fun at art universities that spend a lot of time writing about art, talking about art, and thinking about art, but very little time is spent actually looking at or making art. Aesthetics are routinely dismissed as ‘eye candy’, while certain concepts and ideas are pushed. However, the concepts that art universities deem ‘acceptable’ seem to fall within a very small bubble. Ideas from outside this bubble are either not understood, or rejected outright.
These ‘acceptable ideas’ were printed onto paper cards, and randomly placed on each artwork, to demonstrate how arbitrarily many of these ‘concepts’ seem to be attached to an art work. The tags are non-archival, and will fall off with time, much like how the ideas we attach to an artwork will be lost with time, yet the actual piece of art will remain.
I don’t paint with this technique too often anymore, so if there is enough interest, I could post a video demonstration of how I achieve this effect with acrylic paint
