Rubbish Ocean

I've got three solo art shows in the next three months. I gotta do alot of work every day or else... i have to show old stuff, but that's not what this is about. I've been thinking alot about ART & the ART world & how it just isn't appropriate for my stuff to be shown in proper galleries. The audience is all wrong, this is a cultural thing, this isn't for those gallery people.

The Breakfast Barbarian: Breakfast is the best meal of the day, but i don't like to eat in the morning. Lunch should start at 11 & last until two. The work day should go from 9-11, then brunch, then work from 2-5. You'd have happier, better workers.

I know what you mean about being in a gallery. To be honest I dont think smallish comic-ish art really is best seen in a gallery, but it doesent matter too much if you get good attention. I dont think my work would suit a gallery, but I'd take the chance just for the attention.
Just like some sexploitation and arthouse films didn't suit a wide cinema release, but the directors would have been mad to turn it down, even if most people could not appreciate it because they were taken on the wrong terms.

Be sure to post picks whenever the shows happen!

That's true Robert, it seems inevitable that i'll push towards more legitimate gallery shows & representation as i go along, because i've got mouths to feed & a mark to make in the history books, but i just have a hard time with it. Aeron, you got it, i'm working on a ridiculous series right now, hundreds of characters all duo-chromatic.
