Bob Tan

Posted by Matt 11.2.2009 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.
