10/5 "Simonetta" Exhibition

Hello again.

I'll be participating in group exhibition "Lovely Shimoneta" at the Gallery kopis in Kiyosumi Shirakawa (清澄白河) a station on both the Oedo line and Hanzomon line. Though the station is little-known, it is only about 20 minutes from either Shinjuku or Shibuya.

"Shimoneta" translates directly as "lower gag" but basically means "dirty jokes".
I'll be displaying pieces based on the pin-up humor of men's magazines from the 40's and 50's. Prints will be available for those who are interested.

The show is from Sunday October 5th to Saturday October 11th.
The hours are from 12 to 7pm EXCEPT for the first day which starts at 2pm and the last day which finishes at 5pm. Also the gallery is closed on Tuesdays.
I'll be there all day on Sunday the 5th and Thursday the 9th.
Hope to see you there!

kurukuru

SO! You ask... What the heck is kurukuru kamishibai? It's an adaptation of traditional Japanese storytelling. Where traditionally you have a box and a number of picture cards you use as you tell the story, kurukuru (spinspin) kami (paper) shibai (performance) uses a long roll of paper and a box with handles that you turn to advance the paper. I've made 4 stories so far and I plan to show off a new one at the show starting on Wednesday. The ones I'm making are mini-sized for the smaller boxes. To get to the gallery, just get out Takeshita exit in Harajuku, cross the street , turn left and go up the hill. The gallery is on the right. 2007 kurukurukamishibai exhibition 3 Location: As every year at the Harajuku Sekiun Gallery.

It’s not easy being sidekick to the stars This is why there aren’t any peach-colored costumes for white superheroes.

awww, mannn!!!

The K-1 event that took place in Hong Kong had some great KOs, but poor Musashi was kicking ass until he got his nuts kicked and kicked again. Man! That's why they shouldn't let amateurs fight! Grrr... I hope they fine the bastards $10,000 for each nut that was kicked. There is a special reason that I root for Musa, but I can't really talk about it online. Let's just say, he's help me get some good exposure. Since I was gone a few days, I made a series of three pics. Nosferatu. Or should it be Nosferathree. The first vampire flick. Good stuff! The movie about (kind of) the movie "Shadow of the Vampire" is pretty good itself!
