Studio Apartment, by Chi Birmingham

Like Alice's White Rabbit, I'm late, late, late for a very important date. So my fine collector friends, I will give you the briefest of free-association introductions to today's wonderful fine art edition from Big Sur born, Brooklyn dwelling artist Chi Birmingham.

Studio Apartment brings to my mind a few disparate things:

- The movie Rear Window

- A recurring dream that I have wherein I suddenly discover a whole extra room in my apartment. (Bummer waking up to reality from that one, let me tell you.)

- My waking dream, hope, most fervent wish that one day soon I'll get to move to an apartment on a high floor, better yet the top floor, flooded with natural light. (I am currently cave-dwelling underneath what must be a herd of elephants. My beloved art is all crooked on the walls from the continuous rumble.)

- Wood grain and sage green are most pleasing to my eye.

- Perhaps I should consider a house plant? One that doesn't require much natural light.

And now back to my preparations for Kent Rogowski's solo show, Love = Love, which opens tomorrow at the gallery . It's so freaking great, I can hardly stand it. More on that in my next dispatch. Until then: adieu!
