From Ich Habe Genug | Maira Kalman | 2006

Checkup | Donald Burgy | 1969/1970

I wouldn’t usually quote Carly Simon, but I’ve had a long day. New Motor Queen City by Patricia Seamen and the people I love are keeping my spirits up and alive.

My current obsession: sensory deprivation/ dream poetics by damian lopes.

Perhaps it’s my love of gruesome fetish, or just my lust for gappy-toothed models like Lara Stone, but I love last year’s La Fiction Noir editorial spread in Vogue Paris by Steven Klein. This PG selection really makes me wonder how delicious this shoot could have been. Blood, bondage, and face-paint with a minor in [...]

I am officially and madly obsessed with Maira Kalman. Exploring her work has truly been one of those prize experiences of vast and calamitous emotional movement. I love her bright colours, simple charming captions and beautiful bareness. She moves from existential longing to mundane musing with grace and ease, possessing an honesty that is remarkably [...]

I met award-winning avant-garde composer/Professor Ted Dawson just over year ago in February 2009 at the opening of the Permeate Exhibit at the Music Gallery in Toronto, an art show exploring intersections between music and visual art. Before then, I knew nothing of avant-garde visual notation (I still can’t say I’ve performed any, though I [...]

Ginette Lapalme is a wicked illustrator from Toronto that I recently stumbled upon while searching out more work of the much beloved Michael Comeau. I’m obsessed with her obsession with cats.

During today’s ritual e-digging I came across simone lueck from L.A. - a woman whose small portfolio of photographs, mostly of glamorous older women, really clubbed me over the head. “Making pictures in LA is good” she writes on her main page, “It’s like sifting through an old trunk filled with worn out fan letters [...]

I love the Purple Journal out of Paris.

Today has been great: I’m nearly done the first chapter of my thesis, I already handed off my intro for scrutiny, and I had a great meeting with Esscain, who tossed me a bunch of books he edited under the implosion imprint with Insomniac Press. Very fucking cool. I’m feeling really focused and on top [...]

I really should be working on my thesis - honing my first chapter to toss under Esscain’s scrutiny tomorrow - but I’ve hit a hump and am entirely side-tracked looking at art by Michael Comeau. A friend of mine recently acquired an amazingly rare (and huge) mixed-media piece from this wicked local artist, and I [...]

Ugh, I’m so sick AGAIN this winter, sitting around sniffling with Bijou, looking at French pin-ups, Terry Richardson boob shots and paintings by Arshile Gorky. The retrospective of his work is just winding down at the Philadelphia Museum of Art - I wish I could go! Alas, I’m sick here and stacked with schoolwork, so [...]
