Great Fiesta, the weekend was fabulous.
Slice Of Slice, Fink writes: “Slice is a tribute to Americana as well as my friend Jasper Johns and his recent painting of the same name in his retrospective at the Whitney, which depicts his vision of a slice of the universe.” The scale of the painting (60×84-inches) emphasizes the significance of the watermelon in both art history and cultural history. Also on view will be a number of smaller paintings on paper from the Slice series, and a limited Edition print. A selection of works from the exhibition can be viewed at: https://www.janedeeringgallery.com/aaron-fink-slice .

While I didn’t get a lot of Fiesta time myself this year, I am so appreciative of the amazing coverage that other GMG contributors worked so hard to provide! It isn’t nearly a matter of being there to take photos, it is also rushing home, sorting, editing, writing, and beating deadlines (often with iffy WiFi) to post things while also getting them to you in a timely manner. Not easy to keep up with when the fun events are back-to-back for days in a row.
Three teams of young men took on the challenge of seine boat racing and made it all the way to the finals. Salty Seamen won the championship and the other teams were Family Strokes and Apostles. It was well worth sticking around for following the Greasy Pole! I imagine many of these guys will continue racing and training and we will be seeing them out there long into the future. Congratulations to all the trainers, coaches, parents and team members.
Here are some memories from Sunday’s Greasy Pole Championship which once again saw 2 near misses before Derek Hopkins took the flag to the water early in the second competitive round. He also loosened the flag in the previous round along with Max Allen who experienced the same heartbreak. That made 3 nights in a row where the flag did not fully detach from the pole when grabbed. It was “unprecedented” according to the announcers. Another Fiesta is in the books! Viva.
I hope these photos give you a little idea of the excitement the seine boat races generates on the beach. KAOS, ZFG and Merger battled it out Sunday afternoon in a repeat of last year’s race though the title goes to KAOS this year. Great job by all. I know I’m hooked!
