Project Room
March 18 - May 23, 2010
Reception March 18, 5:30-7:30pm

Nayland Blake is a noted New York artist who spent a decade living in San Francisco in the late 80s into the 90s. Known primarily as a sculptor, a large part of his current practice is blogging. He has kept up a near-daily diary of texts, photographs and most recently, cartoons on www.naylandblake.net for several years. This is the first-ever off-line exhibition of his autobiographical drawings cum cartoons, in which a philosophical character appears who greatly resembles a cross-fertilization among Blake, L'il Abner and Smoky the Bear. Original black and white drawings will be on view as well as digital images, in color, from cd. Blake is represented by Mathew Marks Gallery in New York and is the chair of the graduate program in photography at the ICP in New York.
