Come to hipster-shitty Williamsburg to an event that isn't artsy /hipster and not cool! Thus it's un-cool and pissing irony but fun and we just get down on the love for our guests and that is enough ands, and we are doing it because it's our amazing and not-amazing because we're like terrible capitalists. But in a really good venue, Pierogi 2000!

GALLERYBEAT VS ECOARTSPACE

March 30th, 2010 • Paul H-O
Everybody loves Amy Lipton and that goes 2x for me. She leads up Ecoartspace East Coast. Therein lay the rub. Ecoological art hasn't quite made it over the hump. At least as a form of documentation that will rivet me to what I'm seeing. It's a bit of a high school science fair with Birkenstocks. Lord knows I/we tried but it was just challenging. Our experiences with artist participants was mostly brittle but when we were left to our own devices then we had fun. It was like talking about a Prius, it's odd, a bit ducky, gets great gas mileage, the owners feel righteous, and we really want a Porche.

Dragbikes? Artist Tim Hailey @ Heist Gallery

March 30th, 2010 • Paul H-O
It took months to get this Tim Hailey show edited since, what, August 2009? It accidentally got run over by a bus. That's why it's so late. It was very spur of the moment, Tim calling and saying ,"hey man, I'm having a show down the street from your place!". So I said how long is it up for and he says "todays the last day!". WTF. I thought about it, and then it dawned on me I didn't EVEN know about the effin' S.O.B. goddam show and he calls me on the last day? FTS is my initial feeling.  more »
