I kind of wanted to do a Mondrian art car a while back, but my painting skills are not exactly elite.

You can buy models, which are easier than the real thing to display in your living room.

What do you call those little tilda v tilda flourishes between links? You need a catchy name like "vronksy ligatures" or something.

I'd really like to see Karen Finley get a shot at this.

Yes! we must discover a name for them brother b-han! They would make lovely ~v~ belt-buckles, or cattle-brands ;-)

Finley would bore me. She's stuck at, "ooh! lets shock the parents."

Besides... I saw Wendy O. write FORNICATE live on tv, what more do I need?

Video of the Formula One Boss, Five Hooker Nazi Scandal?

Vronsky you knew of my obsession with Robert Rauschenberg. Damn the restraining order.

Anyway. Great find.

My German (my French is worse) is not that good so I clicked on this one instead:

If Rothko had been included we might have seen a flame job.

Yo tk! The American Masters documentary on Calder is an all time fave! Get outta my head you!!

(Both the Calder and the Capa are exceptional in that series.)

Definitely an inspiration <>
