... when your email address is on some mailing list, and then all the other people respond to some email, asking to be removed from the mailing list by using "reply to all" - so that instead of just one spam email you get dozens and dozens, and it won't stop? And then people get angrier and angrier and demand to be taken off, only to add their own personal spam. Amazing. It's like a room filled with people with someone [...]

Video, performance, and installation artist Kate Gilmore often draws on pop culture and musical lyrics to frame her work. We think, then, that she might not mind our saying that the elaborate, yet beautifully and sophisticatedly straightforward challenges she designs for herself might best be described by reciting the first words of the theme song for perpetually syndicated sitcom, Cheers: "Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got." This melancholy refrain is the perfect truism against which [...]

Art Basel redux! Photograph AFC Several sources tell me the really ugly overpriced art at many of the larger fairs isn’t selling. Normally statements like this wouldn’t be a conversation piece, but today, it inspires the question, “Is the party almost over or are collectors just not that dumb?” Given some of the prices around here I’d like to say it’s the latter, but then again I saw art sell last year I never thought would find a home. I guess [...]

Unfortunately, it's very hard to find much about Hiroh Kikai's photography online. His portraiture is amazing, whereas I find his other work a bit forgettable. If you live in New York, you can still (until 7 Sept) see some of his portraits, which are part of ICP's Heavy Light (which, for me, was by far the best photography show to see in New York this Summer).

Need some art supplies? There's a 30-percent-off coupon for one non-sale item (time to buy that expensive one thing) in today's Philadelphia Inquirer, Section B, page 7, for the new art supply store in town, Blick Art Materials, which is having a grand opening sale through Sept. 7. There are prizes listed in the ad besides the coupon--all most appealing if you ask me. The store is at 1330 Chestnut Street, lower level.
