Last Friday, Scott Campbell and Leontine Greenberg had their opening show at MyPlasticHeart. The show, which I knew would be nothing less than amazing, was lively and packed the entire night. The crowd was larger and different from any crowd I’ve ever experienced at MPH– I was truly impressed with ALL of the works, the artists, and the overwhelming amount of red dots next to sold pieces I couldn’t afford. =(

I am so excited for the latest news release MPH has released. I love, LOVE the works that Leontine Greenberg produces and I cannot be more excited to know that she’ll be part of a duo show with Scott Campbell at MPH this November.

If you don’t know who Leontine Greenberg, you can look back at my post on John’s first curated show: New Moon. The group show at MPH was the first time I’d been introduced to her works, and I’ve been internet stalking her ever since. I’ve made sure to bookmark posts that include sneak peeks of her work, over the summer she had a solo show in Gallery 1988’s online gallery (and had I not been so broke due to the SF trip, I would’ve purchased a piece), and she’s been in a couple other group shows. Needless to say, I really do adore her soft watercolor palette and her creatures have this very calming effect on me. Keep reading to see Scott Campbell’s side of the postcard…

This show took place over a month ago, and yet, I am just getting to uploading my photos and whatnot. Sorry about that. Many things piled up during that month. I won’t go in depth, which sucks since it was John Wong’s first curated show and I always love to support friends. 

The show payed homage to the Chinese Zodiac. Artists were assigned an animal and they had to create a piece which represented the animal they were given. For the most part, I thought 90% of the pieces were amazing– the few I didn’t like were just not my style. If you check the slideshow above you’ll see all of the pieces that were on display [or hit the link to see the original sizes]. I did however forget to take pics of 3 pieces though, two of which belong to Nemo.

I said I wasn’t going to go into details, simply because it’s been almost a month I think. But I did want to share some of the highlights along with the piece I picked up. If you want to see what pieces are still available, check out MyPlasticHeart’s site. Hit the jump if you’d like to continue reading.
