Goodbye Coretta Scott King

January 31st, 2006 -- posted in Goodbye

I thank Mrs. King for everything that she and her husband did for humanity. If only a small part of their sprit lived in each of us… think how close to perfect this world would be.
Goodbye Coretta… we’ll see you in the next life.

Shannon Hourigan

January 31st, 2006 -- posted in Visuals

I stumbled across Shannon Hourigan’s work this past summer. What caught and has maintained my attention are the series in her Art section which I see as very thoughtful studies. With punchy strips of colors, expressive lighting and suggestive yet mysterious subjects, were you to put her collection of series together, you will have modern […]

You can lie to whomever but you can’t lie to yourself. Hence, if you are up for the challenge hop on over here and take these tests. But let me say that once you’re done you might want to ring your therapist for a little chat.

The Notorious Bettie Page

We seem to be 2 for 2 in the loser circle on the biopics today folks. See previous post for sad biopic flop #1.
I always thought that when you didn’t hear about a movie until it magically appeared in the theaters, then that was a bad sign. According to this review I found […]

Edie Sedgwick Rolls Over in Her Grave

January 25th, 2006 -- posted in Word on the Street

I am sure that many of you have heard of the filming of “Factory Girl” - the story of Edie Sedgwick. Unfortunately Lou Reed is not in love with the idea of it.
As per Mr. Reed : “I read that script… It’s one of the most disgusting, foul things I’ve seen - by any illiterate […]

That Man - Peter Berlin

January 24th, 2006 -- posted in Visuals

This weeks celluloid excursion was to the Village Cinema for a late showing of That Man - Peter Berlin. Known for his continual series of self-portraits ranging from the 70’s to this day, Mr. Berlin is truly Narcissist incarnated. While he shamelessly dripped sex and raunch, in watching this documentary, you quickly understand his […]

The Drama of Kanye West

January 24th, 2006 -- posted in Visuals

I heard that they wanted to use this headline but their lawyers advised them against it.
Thank you to Nina4535 for the heads up on this one. Now… is it me or does that crown of thorns look like it is sort of cocked to the side? I do hope so as that is exactly how […]

Scar Wars

January 23rd, 2006 -- posted in Body Modi

Marisa DiMattia posted this one on her blog “Needled” and I had to share it.
For those of you who don’t find scarification to be a viable art form, I think this might change your mind. Some of these pieces are the most intricate, well balanced and precise that I have seen. I […]
