Open Studios in Bed-Stuy

Well, contrary to certain SCAD prof''s advice I went to Bedford-Stuyvescant, Brooklyn this weekend to visit some open studios with the Bjerklies (in fine form as usual) and made it out alive! Was particularly impressed and intrigued by the work of Carlos Rekevics, who I remember seeing in Karen Wilkin's SCAD Trustees Theater presentation way back in'04 (see- it does make a difference going to some of those lectures). Apparently he's got work up at thw Whitney Annex right now, so gotta check that out. His website is here, you should definitely check it out:
