Amy Talluto commented on ArtNewYorkCity.com, inviting me to come down to the gallery @ PS122 on Saturday (yesterday) but I did not see the comment till Saturday afternoon – so I could not go.  I went today, instead though I missed Amy – who was not at the gallery today.

I did make a YouTube movie of Out of This World @ PS 122 -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48p-sQh4Za0 for anyone interested.  I would have embedded the video but this version of WordPress seems to have problems with putting videos in blog posts – I don’t have the same problem on www.WebMetricsGuru.com or www.SmartMobs.com.

Here’s the thing – Amy Talluto’s paintings were really good – and I got a surprise – they were much looser close up than I thought, based on the picture (see below).

I think this painting is of a pond – it was the largest in the show and was being sold for 5,000 – which is really worth it ….. I was surprised at Amy’s brushwork – it’s so loose!   The blue touches in the middle of the painting really make the painting “sing”.   There were a couple of other paintings (you can see the whole thing in the online video on YouTube).

I’m glad I made it to Out of This World @ PS122 on the last day of the show.  

BTW, I also looked at Diane Carr’s work but I’m more into painting than sculpture – but her work was good – I just am more biased to painting – what can I say?
