Interesting, too, that large animals were posted. I was thinking about posting these up yesterday:

Uh . . . penis? I know it's not real, but still. . . .

I can only guess what that woman is thinking. . . . .

Hmmmm, I was just debating that one. Maybe I'll find a less "revealing" shot.

Did you see the article yesterday about Ron Mueck in the NYT online? Pretty cool stuff. Kinda creepy.

Okay, no penis in the edited version, but now you can't really tell that the sculpture is what, 10 feet tall?

Ah, the death of art...

I liked the first one better. with the girl...gives a better indication of size. Just pixelate the puppy out...

Jman · 01-03-06, 03:18 PM

Well, it's not a *real* penis, and after all, it IS art, so maybe put both in until Woody or someone else complains?

*35% warning if you're uneducated and might be afraid of "art" -- but if you click on the pregnant lady sculpture, be sure to look for one where there are people in the photo for scale.

LOL.

Who AM I?

If I'm not mistaken, Charlie Sheen's character says this right on cue in Wall Street while he's staring at NYC from the balcony of his posh new apartment. I started laughing out loud in the theatre because I fed the line to my friend mere seconds before it was said. I don't think that line can be used by anyone, anywhere on the planet without being laughed at.

Doug did you realize how much that clown looks like Michael Jackson? I think I am going to have TUT induced nightmares.

Holy crap. I took another look at that thing, then I realized that I had seen it before. I visited that park (the "Magic Forest") in the 1970s, I have seen that clown up close.

Mommy. I'm frightened.

I'm crawling all up in your head now

That clown is still there...waiting for you to return...

I hadn't noticed the resemblence before...but given how Michael looks these days...I don't think it's much of a stretch...

...oh Micheal...what have you done?!?!

There's a Dar WIlliams live album where she has a good laugh at herself, art students in general and Yoko Ono, and it all culminates in that very line. Gives me a little giggle everytime I think about it - with or without Charlie Sheen.

On a side note, I discovered that art is NOT dead this weekend. I had the pleasure of speaking with an artist from Kilkenny, IR, who is working on something absolutely brilliant - or, in his words "it's fucking brilliant, yeah!?" -- he was working as a school teacher for the last three years and documented a huge amount of corruption and crap that's been going on. He's using the documentation to create a "sculpture/installation" piece to expose the whole deal. Very nice. (I like it because it's a direct life statement, it's localized, it's important on a very local level, and it's authoritive. It'll frustrate and tip the balance of power, but not in a blind way (it's no Piss Christ) - it's rare to see real innovation in art, rarer still to take issue with authority on such a personal, localized level and direct art at it in such a way...I was very impressed.)

Vintery, mintery, cutery, corn,
Apple seed and apple thorn;
Wire, briar, limber lock,
Three geese in a flock.
One flew east,
And one flew west,
And one flew over the cuckoo's nest.
