JULIAN WOLKENSTEIN

The horses called, and said they said their are reclaiming what is rightfully theirs.

I guess on this Martin Luther King Jr. "birthday" celebration, everyone is reclaiming their rightful place in society, and the horses are doing taking their fair share of the pie.

We have to thank for this wonderfully ironic art the person of Julian Wolenstein, who is an Australian photographer. He works with clientele as common as Burker King to those as upscale as VOGUE Australia.
I guess that mix of humor and art is demonstrated in his photography. My favorite is "Yawning is Contagious."
Truely it is. "YAAWWWWNNNN." Peep the rest of his works in his virtual gallery.

And another little token that should claim its rightful place is this little sneak peek from the "This Charming Mixtape":

...but, I hope you movers and shakers out there will create merriment that will indeed be merry.

2009 holds great promise for a lot of people, and a lot of resolutions to be made and then broken. But one thing I know that will definitely be broken is glass.

Currently there is a exhibit called "Broken Glass: Photographs of the South Bronx by Ray Mortenson” that is at the Museum of the City of New York 1220 Fifth Avenue(at 103rd Street)New York, NY 10029. For only $9, and only $5 if you are a student, hahah!!!

It is a photographical documentary of the downslide that began in the Great Depression of the 1930s and accelerated with the construction of the Cross Bronx Expressway in the 1950s and the fiscal crisis of the 1970s. Remember you got to know your history, in order to know your future...

...and my future consists of me watching BScott destroy my dreams of marrying that handsome man that is Marcus Patrick.

Peep my 2009 Diva...

You Are What You...

...LIVE???
Well according to artist, Todd Selby, such is the case. He is starting a new project that I am so interested in. It is called the My Home, My Self Project. He is shooting good looking people, in their natural good looking habitat.

I'm good looking, can I be in it too???? Nah, just kidding. The results are posted on his website, and they will be will be exhibited next spring at Colette, the Paris boutique.
My favorite part, is when he writes down some kind of random interview in markers, and has the participant fill it out, illustrations and all. I love it!!!

You may/may not be familiar with some of Todd's work...If not get familiar...

The streets are watching....

Leaving it for the artist to translate.
