kdays was super fun, happy in the best sense, expensive, but i will be getting some of that back.
john burrows, an artist, attacked and yelled and abused me verbally beause i said his paintings were shit, his paintings are shit...you can see them here and his "folk art" here. on brown wedge next week, i am planning on writing about the conversation we had, commerically, poltically, aesthetically, and personally.
more about british art now:
the chapman brothers did a series of etchings, modifying, often violent, sometiems cleverly, something called the big giant colouring book. the work was yellowed in such a way that i thot it was his infamous goya paintings, and of course it wasnt, maybe a preview of that work. the chapman brothers are treating goya and the giant colouring book as synonomous texts. i thot about that for a while, and i realised something--i should find the work, cheap, easy, lazy, badly construted, adn shocking for the sake of shock, vapid in the worst ways--and i do, but i still like them, and im not sure why. its like douglas coupland, who wrote the introductory essay, who i know who is a shit writer, but who moves me emotionally, who makes me feel bad in a good way.
tracey emin, i dont think i like her, ive been annoyed with her for a decade, for no real good reason, mostly i think for extranous ideas of romanticism, or offputtign misogyny, or because i dont think her work is elegant enough, but i keep returning to it, it sticks with me...the work on teh show, is a large, embroided wall hangign, of a nude woman, (scrawled, but with dleicate care, because the stictching is perfect) with a hundred or so coins pouring out of her cunt. the coins are sewn with similar coloured thread, the background a mushroom brown, the coins copper, the hread almsot chocolate...and the stictches go in several directions, acting as a delicate pocket...for something that was supposed to be clumsy, or broken, or falling apart, or scrawly, there was so much work into making it work, delicately, adn with much prescion. that irony is central to emins work, or if not irony, then tension, but its a tension that bothers me on a gut level, and i dont knwo why. talking to ashley about emin, i said to him, ive spent a decade being annoyed by her, and that means here is power there, but i cant get over the block into admiring or liking her work. (i am talkign about the embroidery here, which i think is what she will be famous for. the drawings i hate, the writing i dont bother with, and the neon i am fascinated with---usually i can divorice an artist from their work, the autobiography of emin makes it difficult)
here is the peice i saw:
i cant find a clsoe up of the coins
Sarah Lucas had the same collection of self portraits. the same ones ive seen in london, toronto and vancouver, they have a visual sedution, adn sarah lucas looks like the butch, anglo women ive always found incredibly exciting (tilda, or rachels friend sam, both have the same bone structure). the pyschosexual symbols are both modern adn ancient--the skull could be hamlet or the ambassadors or some goth kid, the fish could be constable or van eyck or any of the performance artists, but i wonder if they are too slick, too obv
gillian wearing makes me happy. that is all.

an online exhibiton on themes of voyuerism and photographry, advertising a book by the name of voyuer. the photos are the usual noirish, black and white, which adds a visual cohesiveness, but makes it a bit cliched. the combo of known and unknown fotogs, artist studies, papparazzi, porn, and fine art photography are wonderful, as is the timeline (about 90 yrs) though. some excellent examples though, esp:

art i saw today:
landscapes by phyliss anderson
mostly nafls, with one exception--a small canvas, maybe a foot by a foot and a half...over framed, and badly framed, but beautiful...i really like painting, the formal way shapes and colours interact, ground each other, and frame each other, its retrograde,but it works, this time in this small landscape there were two small sections of green, one in the foreground, a bright, grassy, yellowish tone, in the back a deep, aquamarine, more blue than green, it was a prarie scene near red deer, so the rest of the coloours were browns, beiges, tans, tawny yellows, and dark oranges, some grey, really not very exciting colours, in clearly delinated section--here is a field of wheat, here is a field that is just tilled, here is the sky, but the two greens, framing the rest of the prarie, were really exciting, because the signifier floated--by that i mean, there was nothing clear, they were not lawn or river or lake, and it might just be lazy painting, but it made the work pop.
other things i saw
a chinese fotog at douglas udell, whos work was too precise and too clean, obv fucked with digitally, and printed as bright, oversized c prints, kind disappointg (also an ugly olitski, some bad conceptual fotos, farafard foals and coyotes (which were really strong, i really love farfards work) and some schermann works (hes painting dead sheep right now)
ashleys friend tim at front--she jetissonned most of her collection, which im t hankful for, because the woman was kind but her work was shit---tims work is complicated, the space was wrong for it, sometime he is muiuch to gestural for his own good, and osmetimes hes too cute, sometimes there is just too little presence, but spending time makes the work ingratiing--i think that she wants to get into stranger, more political, queerer, and darker work, so i should send ashley her way.
douglas clarkes intense, sexy photocollages at the aga (and a doc where he was quite bitter about street photography, those his work where he takes pictures of odd things in store windows was some of the more interesting street fotog lately)
jesse sherburnes art bar==jesse is an excellent interior designer, and should continue that practice, he knows exactloy what trends are popular. as an art work, i am unsure
and a best of the yBa with emin, wearing, lucas, the chapmans, and others--i am going to be writing about this at more length later, but the catalog essay written by coupland is well worth picking up
(snap had a retrospective of bc print makers, some of the work was witty, but none of it was really interesting, though i really think that the three they used in their subscription series (one called lacunae, a bright red one of a boy looking down his pants, and another) are much stronger and maybe worth purchasing.
other stuff
peter at xtra was kind enough to send a large crit of the camp peice, telling me how to outline and what to plan, i think he wants me to engage in narrative, something ive been avoiding for years, but something i doubt i can stop engaging with anymore...which reminds me, for that queer catholic anthology, i think i am going to write 6 narratives, about visual culture that pushed me further into mother church, and about bodies/dicursive pleasure avoiding the fear of autobiography...and im feeling a little more comfortable with the meritt essay, but remain confused and undecided about the wedding...blairs work at the word and mascluinity show at the cambridge gallery in ontario remains the strongest work of his career, esp the work related to the theifs journal, and a good lesson about the tension b/w symbolic and literal, about the fears of being too literal.

watching young by chesney on cmt this morning, i figured out chesneys sexuality, its entirely about himself, and nostalgia. i dont know the word for it, but im pretty sure kennys now ideal sexual partner is kenny at 18.
-- anthony easton (anthonyeaston@gmail.com), July 18th, 2006. (later)
onanopostpedo? Has he ever sung about actually being horny, though? "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy," but what does he think? Great great video, but the girl's doing all the w-o-r-k, slinking down the cabbage rows climbing up to git him, grabbing, twisting,unbuckling, starting to unzip him. He's exultant, but is it just the attention? Anyway, he doesn't touch her, or look like he wants to. Maybe he'll do dairy when the camera stops, but meanwhile, total boytoy bottom! (If Mary Gaitskill can tell the convincing story of a femme top,they is *he* macho enough to be a butch bottom? Would you please ask her, Frank?) Also, I really like "Anything But Mine," cos finally his nostalgia is for something recent, and for something more interesting than standing around in his high school parking lot etc. But the song, though done cool, is really more bout he's satisfied cos he put his mark/logo(not brand, that would be too hotte) on her, not that he had such a great time doing it.
-- don (rudyparkaz@yahoo.com), July 18th, 2006. (later)
thats what im saying, his work really is this obsessive, preening, masculinity, that seems to be above sex, or at least sex with the past...not quite safe but that whole point, of pleasure adn desire, being not connected to bodies but some arcadian construction of space adn time strikes me as the key to his success...
or to put it another way, people want to fuck him but he doesnt want to fuck anyone, (but his desire not to fuck anyone isnt that elegant glacial, refusal, because that being in sixth gear schitck is, in addition to homosocalism, drinking, etc)
there was always a sublimated homoeroticism to the frat boy nonesense, but i never got anything sublimated in chesney...
that said every major male country performer has more of that beatlemania, audience/performer sexual frisson then chesney.
i dont think hes a bottom boy, and i dont think hes butch, i think that he is a really slippery sexual signifer, the binaries we use to talk about people (audience/performer, gay/straight, butch/femme, top/bottom) all fall down around kenny boy.
(how would he be in bed?)
and where would i send this essay if i was to write it

24 Casino Royale
I was shocked how much i loved this, for its writing. action drags a bit, racist and misogynst in places, but the writing is amazing (oddly, the set peices, which are usually reserved for death or sex in crime fiction are reserved for gambling or cars. i dont care much about cars, but there are several sections on people playing baccarat that are as close to holmes as ive read...i want to read more.

John Money who gave english phrases like gender identity and gender role died this week, at 84. Though beginning with radical ideas of inclusion, ambiguity and otherness, with his later work at johns hopkins, he viewed those who didnt correspond to the proper gender identity as dangerous enough to be corrected by surgery or other manic interventions. I dont want to get into the case of David Reimer, because the story is too sad, and has been too manipulated by everyone on everysaid, but his genitals were corrected by Money, and he considered this correction a tortue. Money's later work reminded people that intersex, transgendered, or other gender constructions should be given autonomy over their own desicions, and that it should not be considered a pyschological or physical abberation when those descions become impolitic. Butler writes about Money and Reimer in her book Undoing Gender, which is well worth reading. He is a man we should thank for new words, but should be worried about how those words are used.

speaking of grave robbing, this article about Ralph Reed in GQ is one of the best peices of political reporting ive read in ages. Stil doesnt answer the question: If he basically won it for Bush in Flordia for 2000 and 2004, why isnt he getting something better in the deal than a pissiant LG position in Georgia. Why is he running for election at all? His best work, has always been as a choirboy with a meat cleaver, those sort of back room bullying that has none of the subtlety to be called manipultion. he gets people elected, he doesnt get elected himself.

India is blaming Pakistan on the Mumbai bombings. Its really frustrating, these bombings were the best cordianted, and the largest in terms of impact, with 7 in a row, of all the recent terrorist work, and it lasted one news cycle---russell simmons dida great peice of reportage in the globe and mail this week, but that was all. England, Spain, America, can get years out of their sucide bombers and i think its because of the whole isreal/hezbollah hissy fit.

John Money who gave english phrases like gender identity and gender role died this week, at 84. Though beginning with radical ideas of inclusion, ambiguity and otherness, with his later work at johns hopkins, he viewed those who didnt correspond to the proper gender identity as dangerous enough to be corrected by surgery or other manic interventions. I dont want to get into the case of David Reimer, because the story is too sad, and has been too manipulated by everyone on everysaid, but his genitals were corrected by Money, and he considered this correction a tortue. Money's later work reminded people that intersex, transgendered, or other gender constructions should be given autonomy over their own desicions, and that it should not be considered a pyschological or physical abberation when those descions become impolitic. Butler writes about Money and Reimer in her book Undoing Gender, which is well worth reading. He is a man we should thank for new words, but should be worried about how those words are used.

National Musuems"> Liverpool has agreed to give the skeltons they stole from the Maoris in the 19th century back. Isnt that nice of them. There is something ghoulish about how many corpses are festering in the back rooms of musuems, taken from colonial waves. Graverobbing it is.
speaking of grave robbing, this article about Ralph Reed in GQ is one of the best peices of political reporting ive read in ages. Stil doesnt answer the question: If he basically won it for Bush in Flordia for 2000 and 2004, why isnt he getting something better in the deal than a pissiant LG position in Georgia. Why is he running for election at all? His best work, has always been as a choirboy with a meat cleaver, those sort of back room bullying that has none of the subtlety to be called manipultion. he gets people elected, he doesnt get elected himself.

Monsieur Le Ciffre made two million. He played his usual game. Miss Fairchild made a million on an hour and then left. She executed three "bancos" of Monsiuer Le Chiffre within an hour and then left. She played with coolness. Monsieur le Bicomete de ccillorin made one million two at roulette. He was playing the maximum on the first and last dozens. He was lucky. Then the Englishman,Mr Bond, increased his winnings to exactly three million over the two das. He was playing a progressive system on red at table five. Duclos, the chef de partie has the deails. t seems that he is perserving and playings in maximums. He has luck. His nerves seem good. On the Soiree, the chemin de fer won x, the baccarat won ya and the roulette won z. The boule, which was again badly freqented sill makes its expenses."

about the merritt peice:
i'm working on another draft (i have made really elaborate notes, fleshing out an outline, just quotes and what i want to say, and random lists, and bullet points, and odd exegesis, and all sorts of other things... its going really well, i have no idea how it will g ell, but i just want to send them the notes, like this helen cixous piece i read on manet and jesus, or her book stigmata, but its more raw then that, so i know they will say what the fuck, so im going to have to batter it into submission...the weird thing is that the piece that isn't battered is fucking alive (not the piece you've seen, but this monster no one has seen yet) (its not like bangs and thompson is really quite polished, i'm proud of it, but what do you do...)

email to kogan
notes sent to frank about a peice in orin hatches singing career
some things that i am not sure the dude who is writing the ariticle has approached but should, that i mentioned briefly on the site
1) the lds church has no formal choirs, and its hymns were written for our culture, the usual protestant classics found commonly in other protestant sects have the lyrics changed or are not part of the corpus (all of the hymns are on line here: a couple of interesting examples
a) should we hie to kolob, the most mormon of the mormon hymns (kolob is the planet nearest the sacred home of g-d) is sung to the tune kingston, which is horribly anglican (so anglican that it has been used since the 18th century).
b) the other is the textual changes to the ubqitious how great thou art--i cant find my copy of the big green monster, so it might be a copy of days before i can actually find the changes.
2) the lds church is hugely patrotic. i remember growing up and singing o canada in church, and the hymn book includes several american texts, including, if i am not mistaken. In thier statement of principles, the article of faiths, the 12th reads: 12 WE BELIEVE in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.They believe that when jesus comes again, he will come to a place called adam ondi ahaman (sp), which is present day jacksonville missouri, and which was the garden of eden there (D&C 78) (is/was?) a hymn ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam-ondi-Ahman_(hymn)); http://www.ldslastdays.com/talk_adamondiahman.htm ) to this place in the green book, and altough it a bit of deep magic (ie the handsome men in white shirts wont tell you it) the church considers it foundational. so when hatch sings such work as heal our land or any o the more patrotic work, it is a lot more ingrained the kinder kirche kuche work typical of the mainstream american republican protestants.
from miracle of forgiveness from spencer w kimball (lds prophet, 1973-1985)
America is a great and glorius land. It is "choice above all other lands" It has a tragic and bloody past, but could have a cglorious and peaceful future, if the inhabitants would really learn to serve their God. It was constracted as a land of promise to the people of the Americas, to whom God gave these conditional promises..." (316)
and he follows up with a list of 12 or so. I could type the promises out if you really want--but to understand Hatch;s culture, it might be worth a look at the work.
3) their is a long tradtion of people who are good singers (clear, clean, precise, and humble) to sing as a special musical number during such events as weddings, funerals, baptisms, blessings, missioanary send offs, homecomings, etc. to understand this, is to remember that the lds church does not have a formal calendar, a preisthood, a lirturgy. a service on sundays would go thusly:
opening prayer
ward buisness
hymn
talk
sacrament hymn
sacarment
talk
hymn
talk
closing prayer
the hymns are sung by t he congreation, the talks are given by the congreation, the opening and closing prayers are spoken by the congreation, and the sacrament, or the lords supper, is given by young boys, 12, 14, and 16 year olds. The third hymn is the one sung, often in harmony, sometimes accompined by piano, but v. v. plain, no mellissima, no ups and downs, just pure crystaline voices. its really hard to explain, because it has none of the explosions, and raw xtc of other churches, or the rigour of hi anglicans/catholics. the churches are all blonde wood, and the chapels w/i the churches have no pictures, no stations of the cross, no banners, nothing. i have found the unordained singing very close to the unordained churches. Hatch sings in this tradition. often they are not hymns but something else, there is a strong industry of sheet music, for example
4) the church really respects talent, there is much talk in sunday school (caleld primary) about using yr talents to glorify good, and their is a culture of participation, art shows, craft shows, home making lessons for the women, even the lds obsession with scouting, all centers around using yr talents to work for the lord (the road shows, annual ward and then stake wide theatrical revues, of skits, relgious movements, etc follow in this tradtion--as are larger productions (i once saw an entire production of joseph and the technocolour dream coat), the burgeoning mormon film industry (esp something called legend and a film version of johnny lingo, a mormon obsession that you have to see to believe) , the annual fine art contests put on by the brass in salt lake, et. al) it is one of the most under rated and misunderstood qaulities of lds membership, and though it is often mocked, hatch's sincerity, earnestness, etc all fall strictly into the mormon love of hand crafted theater. im sure there have been soc articles written about it, and i can send links.
(side note, i am obsessed with morg art, because almost all of it is illustrative, and the most popular work was comissoned by pulp artists from the 50s, the politics of it are fascinatiing)

6) the lds hymn book
http://www.lds.org/cm/display/0,17631,4650-1,00.html
