Who Is SND?

SND (aka Shana Nys Dambrot) is the luckiest girl in the world. Growing up in Manhattan, she studied Art History at Vassar and worked for Leo Castelli, Larry Gagosian and the Guggenheim Museum before moving to LA in 1995 in search of more open ranges, and since that time her fine art & design reviews, features and interviews have appeared in scores of publications including Modern Painters, Art Review, ARTnews, Whitehotmagazine.com, Kotori Magazine, tema celeste, Angeleno, Art Asia Pacific, Intersection, TimeOut LA, Juxtapoz and Coagula Art Journal, and she is currently the LA Managing Editor at Flavorpill.net and a Contributing Editor at its affiliate publication Arkrush.com, as well as at west coast bastions Artweek and Art Ltd.

SND thinks of herself as a fresher, more modern kind of critic than the stereotypical elitist didact. Her goal is to inspire a love of art in a broad an audience, using as little impenetrable artspeak as possible. See, the world is full of very smart people who never took an art class; they have the yearning and the capacity to bring art into their lives but don’t know where to start, and SND wants to show them. Her blog at Uber.com/snd is the most powerful tool in her arsenal to date; giving her a platform to share a kaleidoscopic range of interpretation, discovery, adventure, curiosity and behind-the-scenes access to the hardy and heady LA art world that has given her so much.

Currently Working On: the Joint Custody Project
So for the many folks who have been asking what I'm up to, here's a partial answer at least. I'm in the middle of co-curating a show at Found Gallery way over on the East Side. It's called the Joint Custody Project and I think it's going to be amazing. Blind collaborations between 11 pairs of brave souls.

The gallery site has all the information about the concept, as well as a blog about the process, so I recommend checking in there for updates, but in the meantime save the date for the opening: Sat 5 July, it should be a wild one.

I'm starting work on a couple of very different shows for the Fall as well, both at Ghettogloss. One is part of their new drawing salon series at La Cita, and the other is still too preliminary to talk about but it has to do with the election. So much for keeping things simple!

Shana, sorry to hear about the FISA vote today. Obama voted for it; Clinton against it.

don't tell me you think she'd have voted against it if she were the nominee! that's just naive. anyway i plan on renewing my ACLU membership again this year and also on answering my phone, "F*ck George Bush" every day until Obama is inaugurated.

I've heard that argument. Just as I've heard that he would have voted for the invasion of Iraq if he had been in the Senate. Maybe to both. Maybe not. But he did promise to filibuster FISA and didn't. I'll still vote for him - McCain is a short fuse and should be kept from any triggers, but I've been sending $$ to ActBlue. Anybody decent running against Pelosi and Feinstein will also give a few dollars from me.

I guess I was hoping I was wrong and he was in fact different. Oh well.
