Film industry veteran Bobbi Thompson (who created the concept of Producer Rep while installing William Morris Agency with her brand of independent film representation), is creating an Andy Warhol inspired, site specific visual arts center combining arthouse cinema, gallery and studio space.
A weekend-long Pop Up Art & Movie show at Bergamot Station launches the nonprofit with a group show titled Brain States, featuring artwork from Dtla’s Ecf Art Centers, Project Onward of Chicago, Il. And Little City Center for the Arts in Palatine Il.
Opening Night's Reception, free to all on Saturday December 5th 6pm-8pm, honors the directors of these three Arts Centers dedicated to advancing the work of artists of exceptional talents living with cognitive and developmental disabilities.
The evening concludes with a screening at 8:00 pm of the controversial “Jason and Shirley," recently acquired by Moma. Filmmaker Stephen Winter will be on hand for a Q&A led by Pitzer College Professor of Media Studies and film critic Alexandra Juhasz who is also an expert on feminist cinema.
Known for nurturing the careers of James Cameron, Tim Burton, Ang Lee, Gus van Sant and Trey Parker, Bobbi Thompson championed the films of maverick talents like Robert Altman , Stephan Elliott, and John Cameron Mitchell, Bobbi states, “When I have a clear vision of what is the best in each artist and their work,” says Thompson, “I want you see what I see -- and to respond to it actively. I am excited to continue to present radical cinema, 2-D art created by some of the most extraordinary creative minds today, and I hope you will come to build your contemporary collection.
Right now I’m working on all the last details for the show. I cannot believe I am really doing this, but here it all is and people are being incredibly generous with time and goods, actually donating money on my nonprofit site and being very encouraging about the concept. Tomorrow I am meeting at the gallery to go over tasks for installation and at the reception with some of my volunteers who have been introduced to me from three programs that provide transition-to-employment skills training for young adults living with autism and other brain-based difference. They are all emerging artists themselves.”
Gallery hours on Sunday are 11:30-5pm. Sunday’s Matinee screening begins at 2pm.

Pahrump - Call it Hof Vegas. Dennis Hof of HBO’s Cathouse no longer wants me to warn readers that his Bunny Ranch empire is in only Reno and not Las Vegas. He’s bringing his style of adult fun to the outskirts of Sin City. He called up the hotline from the middle of Crystal, Nevada to spread the news. The sounds of hammering and drills came from his end of the phone.
“We’re moving around here and getting some things done,” Dennis Hof said. “I bought two 35 year old rundown, rat trap brothels. What you’re buying is the licenses.”
The two old names were Cherry Patch Ranch and Mabel’s Whore House. The new places are Love Ranch and Dennis Hof’s Cathouse. “Those are name that are synonymous with good times.”
There are no good times for the former owner. He got arrested for bribing a county official.

The cast of the former Comedy Central series Reno 911! got together for a night of fond reminiscences and moderate pornography. Members of the Biggest Little City’s police squad, including Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, and Niecy Nash, gathered earlier this week watch a porn parody of their comedy show, a potentially dubious distinction that Lennon nonetheless dubbed “the highest honor.”
Clearly, the Reno crew, many of whom already knew each other from the great sketch comedy show The State, has a good sense of humor about stuff like this, but it got us thinking: What other shows’ reunions could...

Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her fashion-conscious gal pals are back, and they’re taking the girl-power hi-jinks to a whole new level. First things first, though: the gay, gay, gay wedding of bestest friends Anthony Marantino (Mario Cantone) and Stanford Blatch (Willie Garson), where chorus boys sing ‘Sunrise, Sunset’, swans frolic among the guests, and Liza Minnelli officiates. Watching that queerest of queer icons risk her umpteenth hip replacement by performing Beyoncé’s ‘Single Ladies’ (dance moves and all!) is as suspenseful as a Hitchcock set-piece, and a difficult act to top…read more [TimeOut]
