Matt Chambers at Untitled

Longtime readers of this blog will remember Matt Chambers, local LA artist who is a longtime ChinaTown friend. Matt has an impressive show up at UNT/TLED, Joel Mesler and Carol Cohen's new space located at 30 Orchard Street in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.

Matt blew up the space with wall to wall paintings, folks outside of NY can find an extensive report in Contemporary Art Daily, and in the official UNT/TLED website.

Awesomeness.

Note: The man in the foto is not Matt Chambers. He's apparently an inspired, anonymous gallery visitor. Matt Chambers probably has washboard abs himself. All portraits are self portraits after all. However, the articulation of veins and the tone of the tanned skin is most likely self flattery if the portrait=self portrait theory is true. I'll ask him to lift his shirt next time we meet.
