Video

Well worth an hour of your life: the video of Off Road, a conversation between LACMA director Michael Govan and artist Robert Irwin, hosted by Glasstire in Houston on October 17, 2015.

Christina Rees and Brandon Zech chat with art pilgrims and natives in Marfa during Chinati Weekend, October 2015. Tequila and prickly pear Jell-O shots abound.

“We know how much you love for us to talk about things we don’t like.”

“And I wasn’t dissing dungeons and dragons, people. I played dungeons and dragons in sixth grade!”

This week, Christina and Rainey get sidetracked on how artists should stay out of school, once they're out of school. And Rainey does a robot dance.

"Houston party scene, 2015... you guys are fucking up his tuxedo!"

This week, veteran Houston gallerist Barbara Davis chimes in: "It's my magical world."

"Really interesting institutional critique - just the fact that he is destroying the gallery."

"Here's the deal: I'm hopeful that this will be awesome, but it could very well be a couple of people showing up in suits and doing a half-baked performance that's a social critique that doesn't really work.... Yes?"

This week we are back with a video and are introducing our new Assistant Editor, Brandon Zech!

Michael Bise struggles to suspend his disbelief as we round up Themed Summer Group Shows. "It's a treasure hunt for bad art."

"It's still art, even though it looks like playground equipment."

Our special guest star this week is Jennie Ash, Visual Arts Director at Art League Houston!! Like everything else, the Top Five is always better in a British accent. Jennie joined Rainey Knudson on a wet day at Project Row Houses to count down this week's list!

This week we got hard-hitting Latinos, clever women and a late-blooming name changer.

This week: a show that shrinks itself, a show that freezes things, and couple of shows that give us that fuzzy TBT feeling.

  This week: creepy Internet addiction, ye goode olde dayes of buffalo slaughter, and–finally being screened for the first time–a Christian Marclay video about a terrible event in Texas’ past:…

"Just keep pushing the boundaries of the discipline of art."

GOURDS!! And punk's not dead. And despite appearances to the contrary, Christina and Rainey are not on safari.

Christina and Rainey are relieved it's not all about luxury goods this week.

"Well, I decided to have really nice cars rather than children."
