I got a serious lump in my throat during the episode "Why we fight" of the television mini series Band of Brothers. The guys come across a concentration camp for the first time and to see that, even if it's just a representation of it, strips you bare.

The art friends (or their parents) have kept from when they were a child that they decide to reveal now that we're all older. Words from young ones are always original and the art we make while young is sweet, shocking, profound, and always beautiful.

This is so weird. I happened upon this post with a lump in my throat currently. I'm watching Ghost Town. I know, it's just a cheesy, hilarious movie, but he was able to help people after being really selfish. I guess I'm just a sucker for the idea of helping people, especially when it goes against what you tell yourself you believe. We try to achieve goals, but do they really matter for anything unless the goals are impressed upon a person in a way that builds them up?

I saw the film, The Hairdresser's Husband," for the first time last week. I had some bumping going on during his dance scenes. I had to find them on youtube and posted them, all of them, on Facebook. Do you want art as in object? Okay, the last time I got me some real gravy groove was at a Robert Grosvenor show at Paula Cooper, the one with the silver ball on top of a stone wall. Sticks to me like dead slug goo.

I was pretty overwhelmed when I walked into a room that was full to the brim with French Impressionism. Seeing Monet's Water Lilies hit me like a ton of bricks.
I think it was like seeing a celebrity in the flesh. No one likes to admit to being star struck but it's hard to deny being struck when you can't move your feet and you stare like a zombie for the first few seconds until you regain control of yourself.

I saw a picture of a slum in Spain in the early 1930's.. and it made me inexplicably happy. The way these children are playing together in the rubble, every single one of them having a smile on his face, oblivious to the misery of the world in which they lived.

You can't tell online, but the red in the background is stippled very distinctly. You can really tell that our man Vincent is experimenting with pointillism...which is very cool! Van Gogh has such unique brushstrokes anyways, so that coupled with pointillism made my heart sing. I really loved this portrait, even though it's full size is a little bigger than a post-card. :)

About two weeks after this picture won best picture for the month at the local camera club, I bought an enlarged print of it. Two weeks after that, the crypt was vandalized.

Brueghel's Fall of Icarus is my desktop, so it inspires me everyday when I see it.
