On the subject of art, I’ve been meaning to post a link to my friend Clare’s portfolio page for a while. She has reminded me that it is a work in progress and I am always surprised when I look and see there is indeed something new there. Have a look at all of her…

Art gallery loses its head, displays plinth
This story is hot off the wires and I haven’t yet heard about what the critics were saying about the fabulous slab of stone…we can imagine it was something like “This piece is marvelous in its simplicity…complex for all of the modern issues which it represents…” Mink Hippie asks “How did they discover the error?…
Do you believe in magic?
Cirque Hawaii recently debuted in Honolulu – it is sort of a local version of Cirque du Soleil. I use “local” loosely, since most of the performers are from Central Asia and Mongolia. It must be kind of a surreal life to train as a circus performer somewhere in Kyrgyzstan and end up in Waikiki…….
Lifestyles of the Despotic Dictators
I just came across a short blurb about Dictator Style in Esquire this morning in the, ahem, reading room. From what the reviews are saying it is a book like no other.

The Case of the Missing Munchs – New York Times
Longtime Incredible Fukn.us readers may remember the bungled attempt at stealing three reproduction Munchs’ last year…that article made mention of this crime but didn’t go into quite the same detail about the ‘brutality’ the thieves showed in smashing the painting from frames…. I would like to point out that there are actually 2 versions in…
Kailua Second Sunday Gallery Walk 2/12
Was reminded by the radio this morning that this Sunday is the Kailua Second Sunday Gallery Walk, here in lovely Kailua on the island of Oahu. The manager of the Balcony Gallery at 442A Uluniu created the gallery walk about 6 months ago now. The Lodestar Collective, next door to the Balcony, plans an “anti-Valentine’s”…
