Supertouch's own TIM BISKUP showed what he was really made of tonite at his JJ ABRAMS- hosted VIP friends & family preview of his newest solo painting show "Ether" at Culver City's BILLY SHIRE FINE ARTS, sponsored by Helio and Vanity Fair. Dealing specifically with the subject matter of loss & pain, Biskup's work has matured dramatically in the past year and his imagery has developed into a very sophisticated series of narratives that speak of the core of the human condition. Of course an all-star cast of art allies was there to cheer him on and the 15-foot-tall machine-gunning orange dragon in the middle of the room kept things more than interesting. Peep game:
