LEFAVOR – MARIE – COMPARETTO: ANDENKEN

By: JoyEngine

Scot Lefavor, Amanda Marie, and Vincent Comparetto put together what we’re calling one of our favorite Colorado group shows in recent years. Merge, held this past Friday at Denver’s Andenken Gallery was tip-top. All three participating artists elevated both their craft and their content for this show. They all pulled off some brilliant collabs. And, everyone in attendance was blown away. The show is gonna be up for a few more weeks… we highly recommend stopping by if you missed the opening, and if you didn’t, well, all the work is worthy of a second unimpeded look. Nice work guys. We were all amazed and totally inspired. Awesome!!!

Vincent Comparetto – Amanda Marie – Scot Lefavor

By: JoyEngine

Hey Folks, Lefavor here. Been a while since I’ve posted up. Vincent Comparetto, Amanda Marie and I have been busting our asses getting a swell show together for y’all. The show is hung (wait, no last minute lefavor?) and I gotta say that their is some super dope work in the show. Vincent’s mixed media light box style pieces fly off the wall, while Amanda made these 2 large interactive puzzle pieces that are a throw back to the old thumb puzzles. It’s amazing, you must see to believe. Dang, sounds like I am promoting a circus or something. Well, it kind of will be actually. We got Experiment and DJ Idull on the tables and MPC’s as well as drinks, ping pong and even a long awaited special appearance of my twin sister Lynn, in Colorado. So on top of all the dope art and good times, there will also be a girl there that looks just like me, like whoa. Anyway people, hope to see you all out this Friday evening at Andenken Gallery.
