With Snowmageddon aka Snowicane aka Snownami outside, and every other bloody facebook-event driven happening tonight cancelled, it seems appropriate to watch… THE MOSQUITO COAST!
Who’s with me!?

If you can make it out tonight, in just less than 11 hours from now, will be Flux Factory’s inaugural exhibition, HOUSE BROKEN. We’ve been working since last April converting a former greeting card warehouse into a workable arts centre. We’re opening with over 80 artists’ installed works and performances. It’s going to be a mad house! These pictures don’t begin to show the half of it. The place is chock full of art almost to the point that you don’t know what is art and what is part of the building! Artists have designed our doorbell, tiled a bathroom, built chandeliers, installed NO SMOKING signs, and laser-etched kitchenware, designed table cloths, painted pipes! SO MUCH ART!
And yes, we have birds! In an aviary!

Great photo from yesterday’s Snowmageddon moving up the eastern seaboard and surrounding my home, NYC. the near-solid white line on the southern edge of the storm is particularly impressive. You can visit the MODIS web to see a larger version.

I know I should be posting my “art” online more often. I often gloss over the process of scanning and resizing and uploading and tagging because there’s only so much time. But this drawing is especially meaningful to me if for no other reason than I think it’s a really good drawing! I also had a really nice discussion at Heathers with some Turkish bird whose name I can’t remember right now – has a C and an O in it – about the accessibility and immediacy of drawing. Which was nice because the conversation emerged after I made this drawing, in a sketchbook in my pocket, and my mind was already buzzing around these very ideas: about how an artist can be anywhere at anytime and drawing is always at their dispose. Including sitting at the bar by one’s lonesome, surrounded by young hip people – all it takes is pen and paper. I plan on donating this drawing to Heathers the next time I’m in the East Village, so if you happen to be there (everybody goes there at least once I reckon) give it an ogle, and salivate as I did over this Whisky at Heathers (Maker’s Mark, Neat), pen on paper, 2010.
