  This image which is a crop from a painting I never finished or was unhappy with that has been flowing about online thanks to Stu Mead and some pals of his in London. It is a large web of associations of artist who nominate other artists to be in this swarm. I at first was hesitated because it seemed like I had to name sevral artists I like, and the tech part was daunting. So I only nominated Stu Mead who had named me, so it seemed like a dead little cell save that Stu named Pakito Bolino and another artist femme at least. I like this piece with the 3 Frank's weiners and nombre, and Klossowski (sp.?) his quote is great esspecially for bi-polars  like yours truely. Stu Mead has been in Berlin for 10 years. I think it has helped his art and his carreer being there. Young Europeans are more permissive aesthetically than Amerikan critics and artists. It's more progressive at least on the outskirts of big success in the suburbs of marginality..

{The Walker Survey of my art opens a week later than announced on Thursday January 26,2012 and runs til May 6.}

  That Thursday will be the opening, free night. But a cash bar will be available (one of those nights the Walker is a bar.)

  Note -  A retrospective can be an awkward time in the works being retrieved from other parts of one's life can create some odd dilemnas then again the gallery is not as huge as I thought so I can be discerning merely by skipping certain of my works in the hands of people I don't wish to have an dealings with you know I have nothing to prove at this point in my art life. I think my work will have an afterlife.  Indeed I know so, because this is what I do what I think about what seems like my only life that runs through all the people who have been in my life and all the struggles. I hope my art can inspire kids the way I was inspired by Paul Cadmus and Stuart Davis and the Sunday Comics - Dick Tracy , Katzenjammer Kids, Nancy, et al. You know you start being an artist when you starts loving other art. And Picasso that was when you knew you were hooked. Art increasingly is the subject of my practice. I really know that art can make us much better,happier and more aware of the unfairnesses all around us. The scream of art is the same scream always heard for freedom and justice and fun.
