Christina Murphy

I shot with Christina Murphy almost a year ago. She's an amazing actress and just so happens to be incredibly funny. Who would have thought this time last year she'd be one of the newest rising stars in Hollywood?! Apparently the Wayans Brothers did because she plays Nora in their new satirical comedy “Dance Flick!” The film is in theaters tomorrow, May 22 and it's already getting great reviews. I'll be there with camera in hand. This movie is gonna be hilarious, I hope to see you there!

iPhone Photo Exhibition

Last night I had my first solo art show in LA featuring my new iPhone photo series, "Perspectives." The turn out was amazing. I met some great people, saw some wonderful art at the neighboring galleries and really had an awesome time. I was so busy this whole week editing, preparing all the prints and trying to figure out how to hang the show. I feel like today is the first day I can actually relax a bit. I finally settled on hanging unframed prints on the wall for a photographic installation of my iPhone images. I ended up hanging them with small magnets and washers. This way the prints aren't damaged by clips or adhesives. I was very happy with the final results and now have a cool new hanging system that I will use for future installations. So many of my friends come out and support me. I am so thankful to everyone who came out to my show and also to those that sent their wishes from afar!

Also, I have received some great press write ups lately from two of LA's top photography and art blogs as well as one of the best indie music and art mags on the scene: We Can Shoot Too , PIX FEED and Redefine Mag so check them out!

I have posted some photos for those of you that couldn't make it out to the event. You can also go to my Flickr page to view the whole exhibit from start to finish! It's an exciting time for me right now and I am definitely thankful for all the blessings!

Perspectives

"Perspectives" is an exploration into the idea that a photograph of the finest quality transcends the bounds of manipulation. Instead, one must depend on the heart and soul that lives within the composition itself. That is the true inquest the observer must face.

EVENT:
What: Koury Angelo's 1st Solo Photo Show in Cali!
When: Saturday, May 16th 7-10PM
Where: The Santiago Art District: Loft 910 Gallery on 910 East Civic Center Dr. (Santa Ana Blvd. just off the 5 frwy)

This photographic installation consists only of images I've taken using the iPhone as my camera. This new found freedom to explore and create has led me to wonderful discoveries within the medium. "Perspectives" is my first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.

Santiago Art District

Every third Saturday of the month, residents of the Santiago Street Lofts host the Santiago Art District--A community art walk event. Their website is www.santiagoartdistrict.com. Galleries open at 7PM and usually run until 10PM--and sometimes even later! I will be showing my photography in one of the galleries. Thanks to Ryan and Nate for inviting me to have my first solo show in Cali! Ample (free) parking is conveniently located across the street at the Santa Ana Train Depot on the southeast corner of Santa Ana Boulevard and Santiago Street...also, word on the street is that the Kogi truck will be making a cameo appearance as well, which I hear is kind of a big deal. You can follow them on Twitter @kogibbq or their website www.kogibbq.com! See ya there!
