FLIPPING OUT

Thursday, May 1, 2014

As with many, I sometimes find The Art to be indistinguishable from fashion, design, or decorative art, which is completely fine. However, the trend towards their sugary, whimsical ilk sometimes gives me one too many (hot)flashbacks of semi-reluctant jaunts around Anthropologie and its twee brethren.
When I first saw a feature praising Juan Fontanive, I spotted [...]

MUCKED UP

Saturday, March 1, 2014

Bored with the usual cinema fare?  Look no further.  L’Enfant (or I suppose now l’adolescent or l’adulte depending on your feelings towards said provocateur) terrible Matthew Barney returns to the cinema fray with his operatic River of Fundament, a collaboration between him, several powerhouse thespians, Gaspard Noé, Jonathan Bepler, and…Norman Mailer?!  Premiered at the Brooklyn Academy [...]

BEETHOVISION

Wednesday, October 9, 2013

While the craft of classical music courts notoriety for its mathematical complexity, its interpreters often express themselves in literary rambunctiousness and visual cues, relishing in matching timbres with colors, flourishing upon movements hippos and dancing flora a la Fantasia.  Floating above the soup of sentiments, Jorinde Voigt charts soundscapes according to an invented emotional notation, you [...]

SHRIGLEY ME DIGGLEY

Pringle of Scotland – Animation by David Shrigley from NeutralZurich on Vimeo.
Everyone loves David Shrigley drawings.  At least a lot of people do.  I really like this one (which by complete coincidence can be bought in various forms through mono.konsum).  If you like David Shrigely drawings, you’ll really really like David Shrigley animations; even [...]

Movin’ On

Friday, July 26, 2013

Life is good and full of options once again: Next week you can spend all that money you saved this weekend (because you didn’t dare leave the house thanks to that heatwave) on lots of fine Forward Motion lots (all for a good cause, of course), and even though taking off your clothes (or playing [...]

EVOLUTION

Sunday, July 21, 2013

Before and after: Tuba Babuna in 2008 and 2012
Some months ago antievolutionist show girls of Adnan Oktar in Turkey were introduced to the world by Amsterdam based artitsts Pınar&Viola in Dazed Digital. What happens when an antievolutionist evolves, and turns into a hybrid being without even recognizing? See, evolution exists! Whilst claiming Darwin was wrong [...]

THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED

Sunday, June 2, 2013

By following Tilda Swinton and Madonna, please keep spreading the word about a secular, civil revolution against Islamist fascist* prime ministers and neoliberal capitalists in the world…
For a short and effective summary of what has been done.
Protestors working altogether again to extinguish the fire that provocateurs lighted.
*The photo being shown here is depicting the poetic side [...]

THIS IS WATER

Friday, May 10, 2013

Now that the words by one David Foster Wallace have been tragically limited, we treasure each one of them, especially when they talk directly to us and about our lives (which they usually do anyway), as in his 2005 speech to a graduating class at Kenyon College. Prime Wallace with his pitch black humour that [...]
