Bob Tan

Posted by Matt on Monday Nov 2, 2009 Under Personal

It’s been a few years since I photographed Bobby Tan removing glass from his eyebrow with butter knives.  A little time has come and gone, but the same enthusiasm and intensity that motivated the butter knife incident are still definitely intact.  Went over to his place a couple weeks ago to look through some of his art, mostly drawings and collage-mash books, all projects that have been consuming hours of his time each day.  He’s got a little corner set up in his house, a set of pens, and has been churning out work for several months now.  It’s quite a stack of stuff that really speaks to the time and energy he’s putting into it.  Pretty impressed by his trajectory and definitely a fan of the work.  Stepped out for a few minutes to catch his opening tonight at Double Daughters in downtown Denver.  Figured I’d post this for today and put the hunt images off until tomorrow.

    Do you know if there’s any way to get a hold of him like a myspace/facebook/etc?
