the back has its whole own other world happening too

needless to say i was super impressed and even more so by the fact that Dustin wants to turn this big beautiful building into a Kunsthalle Red Hook

Photobucket
there is nothing i am drown to more than bounding ambition that goes for it and makes sure things work out at the last second to the benefit of the community
he and i signed our leases almost the same time, 11 months ago, or rather he BOUGHT the place when i signed my rent thingie, and it was a huge gamble for him and now its working out

Photobucket
that makes me happy
i talked about all the artists that have screwed me over in different ways over burgers and the different ways that i forgive them
and their vaulting ambitions…

Photobucket
ugh red hook might be too cute already

i’ll never get a satisfying picture of my favourite view of NYC, on the BQE just south of the brooklyn bridge when downtown looks like the Death Star
i bet Dustin could make a compelling inter-paned rendering…

  1. >”awesome new ramen place on 5th near B”
    – that’s adding to minca and that french cafe style ramen? but it looks like good old minca to me!

  2. love that atacamitic god shaking hands with the empty air down in the lower right of one of the yellin photos.
    Hey!
    Is that why they call it kouros(ion)?

    And the other one which seems to say

    “What then is the heft of our collective vomitus, O Haruspex?”

  3. Red Hook finally someone who knows what to do with money and glass and beautiful old buildings with plenty of cosmic vision.
    Another great look at real time art.
    Thanks
