Reader review:
I have been witnessing the miracles that would be benny’s artistic endeavors for the past two or three years, and let me be the first to tell you that his writing is truly amazing. there is wine, there is sex, there is love, there is joy, there is drama, there is pain, there is sensuality, and there is a depth that is impossible to fully grasp. his writing is sultry and you will never ever stop wanting to read it. even his “boring” blogs and “boring” poems are a good read. Benny is truly an amazing person and it shines through in his fantastic writings. the price is cheap and the quality is top! please, please support him! he deserves more than what this book costs! plus he’s going to be famous one day and won’t YOU be sad when you realize you didnt buy that super rare and out of print poetry book? so you’d better snatch it while it’s here!

Artist’s Statement:
In the water everything is invisible. I promised you sex but we didn’t have any, not a drop, so call me a liar, i am a liar yes. “are you ok?” becomes just a statement to which i agree, or so it seems but i’m sick of you asking, and i’m sick of you not knowing that i’m not. In the water i fall in love with giant arms wrapped around these limbo ribs. “are you in love?” - “yes but not with you”

Publications: Castle Illustrative Magazine #9

Playboi blog is always a great source of info on all things interesting. Today I learned of a new issue of an e-zine I had not yet seen. Hard to keep up with those guys. Castle is a great visual feast and with forward thinking editorial direction.Â
Another favorite e-zine is Destructed.info, also originating in Germany, but also with a completely international feel and focus. I always find fresh, vibrant, loud, powerful and just great artists every time I scroll through the pages of either one of these publications. Both are really worth checking out.

Shop: Placemats by Vik Muniz @ Printed Matter
Posted January 31, 2007 Comments(0) 
I couldn’t resist. I recently saw the Vik Muniz exhibit at the Seattle Art Museum. Muniz’s real genius shone through in this exhibit and was truly accessible to art lovers and everyone who can appreciate magic of any kind. He is the master of illusion, allusion and great art. I even bought the poster of Mona Lisa rendered in peanut butter and jelly. Should I splurge for the Muniz placemats?  I will follow up with some more on Muniz at a later date, but for now… the placemats!
