Today i got up at 9 after 3 hours of sleep. I hung out with David , watched price is right , had a peanut butter sandwhich, rushed my philo. paper down to my profs mail box. ( Its a drunken ramble) . Got a cab to the gym, had a shower, met Ashley and Geneve for lunch. Went to Chinatowmn, had shrimp wrapped in cocunut cakes , cucumber salad, green onion cakes , cocounut rice . We bought a telephone that consisted of a womans legs ( you talk into her ass) , made art from porno mags. Everyone else added , i obsfuctated , made lovely abstractions till you saw the bicep or the cock. No woman either though these were het magazines . I raided his cds so i could burn them and had supper before i went home . It felt right .
WE ARE AUTONOMUS

Last night i was supposed to go to an opening and then go home to finishalot of writing , but no , we went to the bar at 6 and dint leave til it closed down. There was much dancing and drinking and just general fucking about . I couldnt go home, so i stayed with my editor, and i spent most of the night writing . I stink, my back hurts , i need more sleep then i got , i have an interview sometime today and it doesnt matter , i am happy .
Last Night 5 people told me i wrote well, that i was clever and funny and a good guy. FIVE. I dont know what to say except i am pleased . I am missing my classes , claled iin sick, listening to the new billy bragg and just killing time .

i am worried that a peice i wrote for the gateway is too angry, too viscous, too much like s[pitting nails till they stick like a crucifix , i cannot explain it and i sent it off , but it is the angriest i have been in a v. long time and when i started this peice as a little 150 worder about and ended up as this screed against proper faggotry , it scares me when words take over .

Their has been a confession found where Brigham Young admitted to the Mountain Medows MAssacare. For those who aren't or weren't part of the morg this is a bit of history
120 settlers from caliofornia were killed by Natives under the direction of John Lee. This was a time fo great worry, early moromns were already forced violently out of the East ,then Kirkland Ohio and then Navouh Illionis. The early "prophets" of the church founded both kirkland and Navouh as safe havens and it was deeply disappointing that they failed at these locations. Utah looked sucessful but Buchanan who was the presdient at the time was threating to replace Brigham Young with a non mormon Andrew Cumming. He sent in martial forces w/o telling Brigham what was going on .About this time 120 emmigrants heading to California stopped in Utah for supplies , the morg was reading for a seige and didnt have much to spare. There has been controversy to this day about how much Brigham knew , now thanks to these documentts it seems everything .

- being directed by Preminger in a role that got her kicked out of hollywood ( St Joan in St Joan),
moving to Paris ,
hanging out with the Cahier de Cinema crowd,
making the most brilliant film of the french new wave entirely yours ( bout de souffle )
becoming a Maoist ,
supporting the black panthers ,
fucking a black panther ,
getting pregnant by a black panther,
having a semi legal abortion ,
be harrassed internationally by Conterlpro ( ie the FBI) ,
trying to kill yr self every birthday
succeeding on a field beside a tree lined blvd. outside paris .
Having yr corpse stay in the open topped black automobile rotting for eleven days before a local farmer finds you .
i think the warhol book i am in the middle of ( title's warhol , one name only darlings)
its good, writen in like a camp nasty arch bitch style that is barley contained by an academic interest
talks loads about the films and the superstars and the lovely gold boys in the early 50s .
Less gossipy then holy terror , less sex obsessed then kaustenbaum , more about Holly and Edie and Paul America as artists .
Not nearly enough about Candy Darling but thats that
And there is all this dish about pop and the ny gallery scene that i didnt know about .
Best Tidbit : When Japser Johns first saw andys studio he ignored the paintings and focused on a stack of polaroids were the first of their type , made on the legenday Landform Camera. The paintings were silk screens
The polraoids - all mens rumps . a taxonomy of hot fag ass
The Paintings- the first lizes , Gold Marylin, the Soup Cans
Second Best Piece of gossip: Most of his early work was v. v. cheap . You could buy a painting or sculpture now worth millions for 150-200 dollars . The first Brillo Boxes failed to sell at all , same with the first soup cans and the electric chairs . Only 20 people showed up to the first screening of flesh , he was the last "pop artist" to get a major ny solo show , even Wesselman got there before him

Gertude Goldschmidt was born in Hamburg , moved to Caracas sometime in her adult life . She went by the name GeGo , was in 6 of the Sao Paulo biennels . She made art from at least 1925 to at least 1975 , working in installation, works on paper , paintings and sculpture.
I have looked thru 26 books on contempary art , the web and perodicals i can only find a paragraph in an Edward Lucie Smith book , Two reviews of the Whitney Latin American Group Show two years ago (one in art forum, one in world art review ) and the Harvard Gazette Website .
Why do i care , because they are amazing . The installations are made out of aluminum and are like a martin painting crossed with a fern , they grow organically till they choke the place . Fucking amazing . She may be the next Louis Bourgeosis .
