FYI: If I had any influence at all whatsoever, I would INSIST everyone cover their events on video, process and post them. It gives bums like me halfway alltheway around the globe a chance to "experience" the environment / event / situation / bask in the fun. Hey, if I could travel and be there myself, I would dearly love to, yeh? So until then - go make them videos, folks!

Giant Robot is proud to host a "Choegal" release party attended by artist David Choe.
Raised on comic books, affected by street art, and inspired by crime, women, and music, Choe has developed a unique and restless style that is effortless yet meticulous and focused yet dirty. Since the artist contributed his first illustration to Giant Robot magazine in 1997, he has exhibited in solo shows around the world (at all three Giant Robot galleries as well as in Paris, Tokyo, and London) and also been featured on VBS-TV's popular Thumbs Up! series. Choegal is his first wood figure: extremely detailed, totally hand painted, and featuring a head that rotates to expose three facial expressions. This piece is strictly limited to 1,000 pieces @ US$45.
