VIVA NOLA


My dear friend Takashi just emailed me and his installation, Social Dress New Olreans: 730 days after..., is going to be included in the first International Art Biennial in the US...Prospect .1. (yeaaahhh!!) Seventy five artists were chosen to participate. The event will be in New Olreans and its directed by Dan Cameron. When we were there this summer, the buzz about the show was just getting started. Actually, it was just a rumor at the time, but it's for real now. I'm booking my room already before the shit hits the fan. Already it's estimated that over 250,000 will visit the biennial. http://www.prospectneworleans.org/


I'm so proud of Takashi. It was a great experience working with him and everyone else who volunteered on the project. I'm glad our efforts to bring attention to NOLA are being recognized.
