Started in a vacant retail space in one of St. Louis' oldest neighborhoods, 1900 Park was born from a musicians desire to perform on his own terms and a curator's urge to create a unique listening environment for those that love music. Though still evolving, 1900 Park has become a place of immersion for appreciators of not only music, but also of art and photography as the curator pairs the visual and sonic together to create a distinctive experience. From the local and emerging to the national and touring, the musicians and artists are from all genres and mediums with one common trait; they share the vision of 1900 Park. When 1900 Park is not being utilized for these experiences, it is available for various uses; some of which have included plays and film screening to holiday and neighborhood parties. 1900 Park; a space for expression, experience and awakening.

The Des Lee Gallery is pleased to announce the exhibition Two Sides of a 45: Lisha Bai, J. Michael Deane, and Jane Fox Hipple. The works of these featured artists are tethered to each other loosely through geometry and a straightforward manipulation of materials and images. All three artists are alumni of Washington University in St. Louis, and are currently based across the country. Two Sides of a 45 is a purposefully misleading title, as there are not just two different perspectives represented. An interesting dialogue is created when the work of one artist is placed within proximity of another artist’s work, especially when the artists are not expressively explicit in their content. For instance, when Deane’s work is juxtaposed against Bai’s, it can prompt a different “read” than when it is viewed next to Hipple’s work. The title poetically references a 45 rpm vinyl record, a 45° degree angle, and a .45 caliber pistol. Gallery hours for this exhibition will be Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 1-6pm and by appointment. Lisha Bai Bai earned her BFA from Washington University in St. Louis in 2001 and her MFA from Yale University in 2004. She was awarded a Terra Foundation for American Art Fellowship in Giverny, France, in 2004 and received the S.J. Wallace Truman Fund Award from the National Academy in New York in 2008. She has exhibited work in a variety of venues, including the National Academy, Smith-Stewart at Krut Projects, Regina Rex, and fordPROJECT (all New York); Jolie Laide (Philadelphia); and Franklin Art Works (Minneapolis). Bai lives and works in Brooklyn, N.Y. J. Michael Deane Deane earned his BFA from Columbus College of Art & Design in 1999 and his MFA from Washington University in St. Louis in 2002. He has exhibited at Mount St. Mary’s College (Los Angeles); Krowswork and Hatch Gallery (both in Oakland, Calif.); the San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery; and White Flag Projects and PSTL Gallery (both in St. Louis). Deane lives and works in Berkeley, Calif. Jane Fox Hipple Hipple earned her BFA from Washington University in St. Louis in 2004 and her MFA from Tulane University in 2008. She also attended the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture in 2009.

The St.Louis Rams were established in 1995 after moving from Los Angeles, CA. The greatest owner ever Georgia Frontierre moved them because of a pathetic fanbase. While people in L.A refuse to admit it the rams suffered several blackouts in Los Angeles. Even though their the second biggest market in the world their just not capable of supporting a N.F.L team. While even the rams over a 5 year span have just a record of 15-65 their attendance numbers are still better then L.A St.Louis has always supported the rams L.A not so much. Is it me or is it obvious they belong in the greatest sports town in the world St.Louis, MO. In their 17 year history in St.Louis the rams have 6 playoff appearences, 2 conference championships, and a superbowl championship. How many superbowls did they win in L.A as many as i have ZERO. Did L.A ever have the G.S.O.T i don't think so all signs point to the rams staying just remember one thing STL rams forever and L.A sucks. Everyone in STL rams fans around the world join the cause.

Eagle's Wings helps to promote positive self-image and self-worth by partnering with school administrators in St. Charles County to help provide new clothing items & other basic neccessities to kids who need them.

Our goal is to see kids soar while at they are at school and believe that attendance, grades and participation will all go up when kids can focus on what is important. We will continue to update you as we move forward. Eagle's Wings is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
