We’re proud of you MCASD.

A month after bringing Fallen Fruit down from LA, and a week after a sold-out screening of Beautiful Losers (which was apparently a difficult sell to the institution’s higher-ups, but don’t get us started), the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego had the wisdom to highlight local artist Wes Bruce’s Evidence of Searching at last night’s TNT. Here’s a photo journal from the install & exhibition.

Wednesday:

Early AM on Broadway on the way to MCA for the install day 1, we saw the man with the coolest suit in town.

Wes eyeballs the gates to the fortress.

Right this way…

A pickup full of 4′x8′ modular walls, designed and built by Sanctuary143′s Jeff Faeth and Wes for his MCA edition of Evidence of Searching.

Some beautiful light in the early morn. Zack was hungover from night golf but charged ahead in full force.

Jeff’s mockup. A-Team style.

Jeff surveys the west wing, about halfway there!

Thursday:

Backstage during TNT. That’s a 10′ wall people!

More backstage… Joel P. West on the iPod.

A room within a room!

While people browsed the installation, others were busy cutting & pasting.

A group Evidence‘ fest ensued.

Friends, family and strangers gathered thoughts side-by-side in deep concentration.

A good time was had by all.

Writer and Joel P. West played sets across the street. Photos are lacking here because I was busy listening.

On the walk to the car… a few peeps were still snippin’ away upstairs.

Thanks for having us Wes!
