I am...
a multi-media artist with focuses on mixed media painting on paper, electronic music, illustration, and concept production.

i work under the name James Beckman for the fine art projects, like painting and sculpture

with electronic music, i use the name drmlgcc(short for 'dream logic")

the illustration work is under the name Shiku Garu projects

and i have websites for each...
About my artwork
each branch of my work hits on 3 central concepts. History - both personal and universal. Time - How information is preserved. Layers - how quantum events change us, M theory in this respect, and how these layers create the patterns we know in any given moment.
Artists I like
culture and concept producers like Yves Klein (and the noveau realitsts). Those who fuse art and pop culture, like Takashi Murakami and Fisherspooner. And phenomenon creators like Olafur Eliasson and Jeremiah Barber.
Interests
abstract painting, live electronic music, artist as shaman, asian art history, Chinese scroll painting, japanese pop art, german expressionists.
The centre of the artworld is
Beijing, nowhere and everywhere

conceptual painting, illustration, music, photography

i execute the same central ideas through multiple media - below are an example of my painting, photography, illustration, and music (a video), .. i have more examples of each on this site, and throughout the web...clicking on each image or link will bring you to each website where i post a certain project's images.

James,
did you get my email. you can copy that to your proposal when you send it if you wish. also i noticed that they have very specific formats for images and what not, so check their website before you put your project together. I got into artropolis again so we can work together if you want to help out. until then...t

Hi,
Thanks for the add.
Like most I’m here for networking and camaraderie, domestic and abroad.
Feel free to post any recommendations on facilities accepting exhibition proposals.
Peruse my website. My associate in Berlin and NYC (oder24.com) has very nice galleries and specializes in international artists.
Christopher.
