Nick Kushner’s Les Crimes De L’Amour at Studio Servitu

This past Saturday Night, I went to an incredible art show at one of my favorite places, Studio Servitu, hosted by my sexy minx girls, Jane Jett and Miss Crash, promoting artist Nick Kushner. He is an artist who dabbles in very personal and intimate intense work, including using his own blood in his work. His work is amazing and he actually did a small performance piece that night showing how he cuts him selves and literally puts himself and his body into his work. It was a very interesting experience to see and was exquisite at the same time. He also had some pieces displayed in charcoal and pencil were just as amazing.
It was a wonderful time Saturday night and I of course loved seeing fellow artists, and my friends, and enjoyed playing while seeing some amazing work at the same time.

Here is a brief artist statement of Nick Kushner of his work and what he produced Saturday night and some photos taken on Saturday Night.

I can also say too that Studio Servitu and the two amazing hosts, Jane and Crash never cease to amaze me with their nights at the Studio.

On 09.10.11 New York based artist Nick Kushner will be hanged at Studio Servitú in Los Angeles. 'Les Crimes De L'Amour' marks Kushner's first solo exhibition displaying his signature works which speak of disillusionment & pain through the themes of love, death, and abuse - but of the ultimate catharsis that can be attained through the artistic distillation of the emotions evoked by these, most notably by the medium he uses to create them - his own blood.

Kushner likens his work to "Art as modern-day alchemy by the literal and complete immersion within it, unleashing the schism of transformation and inflicting the vision of the innermost catharsis upon the world through its creation. Works meticulously detailed in esoteric imagery, and painted in blood, the most personal and symbolic medium intrinsically possible", tapping into the darker recesses of the human psyche with surreal imagery that is driven not only by his knowledge of the occult, but by life experience as well.

He will be premiering new works as well as a retrospective compendium of his catalogue at Servitú which will be augmented by a full aural presentation of image projections, a set by Marilyn Manson guitarist/songwriter DJ TWIGGY RAMIREZ, sanguine stained walls, star studded performances, appearances and presenters. A live blood signing will be held for those who acquire prints exclusively available for the evening.

I Survived Horror Nights

I always enjoy rocking my Halloween Horror Night's Freddy Krueger Nightmare shirt. I can't wait until this year's horror night at Universal Studios. I love going there to celebrate Halloween early and have people jump out and try to scare me. I especially love the Freddy characters wandering around in the crowds. ;) It's always scary fun for me.

If you're in the area, definitely check out where to get tickets for Universal Studios's haunted horror nights in Los Angeles, which usually begins the second week of October. It's definitely great scary fun.

CHOCOLATE FAKE BLOOD

I always love looking for new recipes or coming up with different concoctions to make props, makeup, and of course fake blood. I love doing horror photo shoots and am always looking for the right Fx fake blood look that doesn't look cheap and can film well.

I recently found this really cool fake blood recipe with I've experimented with and really like the ending results. I also love chocolate so it worked out perfectly for me. ;) It's not sticky which makes it easier to work with too.

Here are the ingredients and easy directions on how to make your own Chocolate fake Blood. Hope you enjoy!

CHOCOLATE FAKE BLOOD:

1/2 c. Warm Water
4 Tbsp Corn Syrup
1 Tbsp Powdered Cocoa
1 tsp Red Food Coloring


Blend the water and cocoa together and then add the rest of the ingredients. Let the concoction sit for awhile and skim the bubbles off of the top. Add a couple of drops of yellow food coloring if you're not satisfied right away.

I personally didn't need to use any of the yellow coloring because I was happy with the results but it definitely varies on what type of effect you want. I also tried adding another Tbsp of cocoa too to give it a thicker consistency. Definitely experiment and have fun. That's what it's all about.

Enjoy!
