Tonight's the night.  Derailed, a group show featuring custom All-City Style trains , opens tonight @ Cardboard Spaceship (5ish to 9 ish).  Here's our final preview -- featuring trains by Motorbot (above), Cameron Tiede, Luke Feldman and NC Winters.  Motorbot's really outdone himself this time with this  inspired Centipede design (complete with accordion style connectors + insect-like legs).

Preview - Jim Koch's It Ain't Pretty (5.3.08)

Jim Koch's rag tag gang of bikers, hicks and dirty clowns have given gravity and flavor to a scene dominated by the bright and the achingly cute.   His gritty low-brow influenced art will be in full-effect for the opening of his It Aint' Pretty (flier) solo opening at Rotofugi this Saturday evening, May 3rd  from 6 to 9 PM.  The show will feature new works from Jim including paintings, doodles, and of course custom toys.  Thanks to Rotofugi we have a preview of the show -- click through to view it.  Also, be sure to sign up for Rotofugi's gallery preview list. Come out to the show if you can and if not, Rotofugi should have a nearly complete public preview online later today.
