Between Here and Here Zine
I've been wanting to make this zine for a while now. It's a collection of a bunch of abstract drawings from my sketchbooks. I wrote a loose story to bring them all together. Lots on growth, explosions, cycles and organisms. It's printed by 1984 Printing in Oakland who uses soy inks and recycled papers. 32 pages, 8 x 5.5 inches, offset printing with brown ink. See some sample spreads here.

Work in Progress
This last couple of weeks I've been fortunate enough to be able to work in nearby woodshop. Thanks to my new friends at NOOKTU plus all the other guys in the shop. This sculpture will be sent off to the Armory Show to be shown with Richard Heller.

Uncommon
This is a new company out of Chicago making custom iPhone cases. They've got lots of great artists to make iPhone cases with and the best thing is you can do the design work yourself. You can play around with my images here.

Another Update
This is in a sort of hidden spot on my site. I thought I'd put a few things up besides paintings and sculptures. Some things I do on my spare time. Take a peek in my 'info' section if you have a chance. Tables : Photos : Rings

Press Release:

Solo Exhibition: Brendan Monroe: Places Between Here and Here
Opening Reception: Saturday, October 17th, 2009, 5-7pm
Exhibition Dates: October 17th – November 14th, 2009

Richard Heller Gallery

Richard Heller Gallery, Santa Monica, presents Places Between Here and Here, a solo
exhibition of works by Stockholm, Sweden based artist Brendan Monroe. The show will
consist of a body of paintings on paper, a large wall installation on paper and a large
hanging sculptural installation out of wood. The title, Places Between Here and Here, is
meant to be about going to other places without ever really going anywhere, like into
ones own thoughts or dreams. The title also conversely refers to the idea of going to
somewhere completely different and returning to the place where you began.
Monroe received his B.F.A. from the Art Center College of Design in 2004. He is co-
represented by Faye Fleming & Partner in Geneva, Switzerland. Brendan recently moved
from Berkeley, CA to Stockholm, Sweden to live with his wife Eva Fan who is enrolled
in a graduate program there.
