Second Post!

Wow! It only took me 3 months!

Well, there is a ton of new things in the life of Julianna Lose...too many to name.
Excitingly, I have started an internship with The HSP*, particularly with Tara O'Brien* in the conservation lab. This means I get to look at cool old books while making boxes to house them along with a many other exciting things. So far so good, and really looking forward to learning more! Hopefully, if I remember to actually keep up on this thing I will "blog" or write more soon about all the interesting old stuff I'm going to get to encounter.

On another note, I'm taking part in a show on February 15th! Well, that's the opening actually; which if your interested is from 5:30-8:30. It is with Art Glut gallery at 8th and Porter. Alex Gartelmann, a fellow artist and sculptor, is taking on an amazing feet by organizing and curating the show all by himself! I'm pretty excited to be a part of it, along with someother 40 odd some artist, and to really experience all the work! Other exciting artists that will be featured include: Leah Mackin, Michael Ryan, Phuong Pham, Fernando Ramos, and many other talented people. Come show us all some love at the opening!

Well kids, thats all for tonight! Til we meet again, or I actually stay on top of my stuff and post again. Adios.

First Post!

Of many that's to be sure. But here goes nothing....
Hi friends,
So there's so many things going on right now!
Pretty exciting considering my life is usually boring.
So where to start...
Okay, first things first, I will be working the Punk Rock Flea Market, holiday edition.

I know the graphics a little nauseating, but come support me and some other awesome artists.
Such as: Leigh Maida, Leah Mackin, Mike Ryan, Phuong Pham, and Nicole Eiland! (among others)
Get all your exciting flea market and Christmas gift needs all under one roof!!!!

Now that that's out of the way, (you know promotional plugs have to come first)
I'm totally into this artist right now.

His name is Ron Mueck and definitely recommend looking him up.
He creates hyper realistic human sculptures at varying scales.
Anyway have fun researching , and while you're at it check out Stephen Shanabrook.

Another really interesting artist, lets just say chocolates made from morgue body casting?
Well until next time!
Your pal,
Julianna. xoxo
