It's sad, in the sense that the Basquiat painting represents something that shouldn't be saddled with a pricetag and clout..also in the sense that high priced art creates and extends the tired high art/low art dichotomy, which every art student should be sick of discussing by third semester. Still relevant, but tired.
Look on the bright side..at least it didn't sell for, like, squillions and squillions of dollars.
Also, I think that dude in the front row was so belligerent because he was outed as a Madonna fan:
Something in the way you love me won`t let me be
I don`t want to be your prisoner so baby won`t you set me free
Stop playing with my heart
Finish what you start
When you make my love come down
If you want me let me know
Baby let it show
Honey don`t you fool around
Just try to understand, I`ve given all I can,
`Cause you got the best of me
Borderline feels like I`m going to lose my mind
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
Borderline feels like I`m going to lose my mind
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
Keep on pushing me baby
Don`t you know you drive me crazy
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
Something in your eyes is makin` such a fool of me
When you hold me in your arms you love me till I just can`t see
But then you let me down, when I look around, baby you just can`tbe found
Stop driving me away, I just wanna stay,
There`s something I just got to say
Just try to understand, I`ve given all I can,
`Cause you got the best of me
Borderline feels like I`m going to lose my mind
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
Keep on pushing me baby
Don`t you know you drive me crazy
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
Look what your love has done to me
Come on baby set me free
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
You cause me so much pain, I think I`m going insane
What does it take to make you see?
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
rock. i think i have a few freelance design jobs lined up... so i should have money secure through the fall. feast! time to pay off the debt i incurred during famine.
i can't believe how ass out i was the last few months. living off of like a sandwich and some noodles a day, losing weight that i don't have to spare...
i really truly wish i could somehow force myself to never ever drink more than like 6 drinks in an evening. i think i turn into The Riddler after about 7-8 drinks. evil, confusing, and diabolical.
i've slept all i can sleep, and now i'm in the mood for absolutely nothing other than death. its not even that i'm so hungover anymore, just waaay depressed.... Read More
Hey nice to meet you as well. So I accepted your friend's request and then like the computer illiterate I am, I accidently deleted you. You have no idea how many time I have done this to people. I have done it to some people twice.
