The Los Angeles County Museum of Art has bought a sizeable collection - 46 pieces - of Oceanic Art. Evidently, according to an AP story, LACMA didn't have an Oceanic collection and felt the gap was significant (no link -...

Mes Amis Terrifyingly, that is me being talked about up by there. Which makes me deeply honoured that yet another blurb has been added to my small pile.

Pow Wow at the Guggenheim (VENICE, ITALY) Last evening there was a Pow Wow at the Guggenheim here in Venice, Italy -- a phrase coined by the artist, Ludovico de Luigi, for a vernissage where the whole town gathers for a bit of conversation and wine, based around an art preview. As one guest put it: "It seems like everybody is here. I don't even see these people on the street!" Well, that's not entirely

"Hancock" has a terrific action-hero premise, a nifty plot twist halfway through, and the always-charming presence of Will Smith. What could go wrong? Plenty.

BARCELONA - This exhibition aims to chart the artistic and personal relationships of three of the great figures in early twentieth-century art, Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray and Francis Picabia.

Death is overrated. Even despite your collection of Italian horror films depicting bloody ghost decapitations and creepy little girls trying to suck your intestines into the teevee. Munk, this German dude who is apparently obsessed with Man Ray judging from his MySpace , understands that the junkies who live fast and die young are stinky, stupid and gross, and that living fast and dying OLD is obviously...
