It's a cowboy weekend! Check out the Oakland Black Cowboy Association parade! And swing by FM Okland for our October/November exhibition by local Berkeley native Paul Thompson. Thompson's work focuses on the romance and excitement of the wild west as he plays with paint, line, brushwork, and composition to depict various scenes and portraits. His imagery highlights a range of cowboy life, as it shows the somber loneliness of ranching, to the rowdy and rough “fight or die” culture of bar fights and shootouts. Within that range one underlying aspect remains: his love for the wild west.

Paul Thompson: Life of a Cowboy
“I always played cowboys and indians with my brother as a kid , and our father loved westerns. He would often play with us and eventually lived in the middle of the Nevada desert. We fantasized being cowboys and when we went to Nevada, I enjoyed meeting real cowboys. It is still romantic and engaging to visit old western towns and imagine living as one. As an adult, I took a tour of old western towns dressed as a cowboy. My mother used to draw with us and encouraged us to draw things that we imagined, so I have been drawing and painting western themes ever since. I don’t make art for money. It is my therapy and as my mother says, we share a healthy addiction.”

Tomorrow is the last day see this amazing show and they are off to Tokyo!
Samples from UltraHive 4; a traveling art show with over 100 artists making original cd cover art! This vibrant and eclectic exhibition showcases artists from around the globe, each contributing unique works that explore the CD cover as both canvas and concept. From reimagined album art to sculptural pieces crafted from actual CD cases, the show celebrates the cultural legacy of physical media while pushing the boundaries of contemporary art. By transforming these once-ubiquitous objects into personal and provocative expressions, the artists revive nostalgia, challenge format, and reframe the way we view music, memory, and material. Together, their works create a dynamic visual mixtape that pays homage to the golden age of the compact disc—remixed for a new era.
