By Lilia Menconi With slideshow by Kathleen VanesianYes, you must see this and more in the slideshow.If you haven't heard of Dale Chihuly, put a rubber band on your wrist, pull it back and snap that baby as punishment.

November 24, 2008Arty Girl: John Battenberg at West Valley Art Museum
By John BattenbergIf you're a religious reader of the Night & Day section of the Phoenix New Times - and, my God, why wouldn't you be? - you've probably already heard about Michael Dixon's show, "Sambo Scatches His Navel and Watches His Crazy Sister" at West Valley Art Museum.With a title like that, it's really no wonder Dixon has already received some press.But I want to talk about an accompanying show at WVAM by John Battenberg called, "Critters - The Phoenix Years".

December 15, 2008Arty Girl: Argillaceous Art by Arizona Clay at West Valley Art Museum
By Carol Russell.Let's just get this part out of the way:ar - gil - la - ceous--adjective1. Geology, Petrology. of the nature of or resembling clay; clayey2. containing a considerable amount of clayey matter(Dictionary.com)Not only do I feel smarter for knowing this fancy word, but, man, I am freakin' thrilled to discover that "clayey" is a real word. Clayey? Really?Fun facts aside, the point of this blog is to pimp the latest show at West Valley Art Museum, running through April 12th.

April 27, 2000Geek Beat: Poetry is for sissies
Hey, did you know it's National Poetry Month? Ok, it's also National Sexual Assault Awareness Month, National Child Abuse Prevention Month and National Safe Digging Month (WTF??), but we didn't figure those were appropriate topics for a geek blog. Why do we care? Though poetry may not be in the same nerdolicious class as Star Trek fanaticism or cosplay, anyone who has a voracious appetite for verbiage or waxes verbose is most certainly -- and proudly -- a word geek. Slam p
April 16, 2009Arty Girl: A Couple Things...
Courtesy of West Valley Art Museum, by Gary and Leslie JannFor all you kitty lovers out there...In keeping with our postmodern or post postmodern (depending on your preference) world in which one must surrender to the idea of constantly referencing, well, everything that has already existed, it's only inevitable that I, Arty Girl, would come full circle and blog about preexisting blogs.First up, remember this? It's my blog from a while back reminding people to submit entries for West Valley Art
May 27, 2009Arity Girl: Painting Demonstration at Phoenix Art Museum
See how watercolor works like "Swimming in the Blue" are made on Saturday.Once again, I find myself in a position where there's a darn good Third Friday Art Walk to blog about, but I'd rather blog about an event on Saturday. Hmmm, what to do...Ok, here's the plan: I'll throw down some links to some sweet stuff happening tonight that you can click to your heart's content and then I'll explain Saturday's artist demonstration at the Phoenix Art Museum after the jump.So, if you're hitting downtown P
July 17, 2009Arty Girl: Cathy Breslaw at West Valley Art Museum
Courtesy of WVAM"Just Imagine" by Cathy Breslaw. Recycled, re-used or re-appropriated materials in fine art is nothing new. Especially with the whole Green movement and rash of sustainability enthusiasts, this practice is everywhere.I'm cool with the whole idea, I really am. But, sometimes, I really just want to come across an artist who relishes in aesthetics, not politics. After all, I want to see something that looks amazing without making me feel guilty for drinking out of plastic bottl
July 24, 2009Arty Girl: West Valley Art Museum is Closed
*Sniff*Just in case you haven't already heard, West Valley Art Museum in Surprise closed earlier this month.They say it's temporary. But a Magic 8-ball might say, "Outlook not so good."
August 19, 2009Arty Girl: Heard Museum West Sets a Date for Closure
Goodbye, sweet prince...I know, I know...so sad.The West Valley doesn't seem to be doing so well these days. Earlier this month, West Valley Art Museum "temporarily" closed (read my blog about it) and now, Heard Museum West is calling it quits.
