The paint’s low quality made me develop my technique out of necessity — thin layers on layers — to coax out of those miserable pastes the brilliance and saturation I craved for; which worked perfectly, given that after forty years they look as if painted yesterday. Its (enforced) outsider status, its hidden agenda, its resuscitative energies, seem to “narrate” something that waits to be decoded and properly judged. On my desk for quite a while now is Other than your own works, finished or in process, do you keep any art or reproductions of art in the studio? What about stretchers, canvases, staple guns, primers, solvents, easels, sand papers, spatulas, bottles, scissors, rags (one of the most — The first-ever ones were given to me as an encouragement in what must have been 1979 by the abstract expressionist painter Heiko Hermann, an acolyte of Asger Jorn and the COBRA group. Opinions.

Given the all-pervading acrimony amongst practitioners of painting back then, the brotherliness of Heiko still resonates with me today as exceptional.

De Gébelin first asserted that symbolism of the Tarot de Marseille represented the mysteries of Isis and Thoth. The inherent problems of translation aside, the most damaging effect, it seems to me, is that as soon as something gets recast in that idiom — that relentless, corrosive idiom, the all-pervading illusion of accessibility, the reduction of meaning through the privileging of “story,” of literal content — it is at the expense of musicality, rhythm, sound, vision, and sense, and the implications of different idioms, historical and modern, demotic and literary, ecclesiastic and erotic, of varying topographic and social provenance, which suffuse Cavafy’s poetry.

I was on the lookout for a city to move to after Düsseldorf. They met to make deals and ignore everything already crushed and continuing to be crushed by their relentless power grabs, all of it assisted by the endless toadying of too many officials around them.

My building's management has spent the past year, using terminated leases, trumped up claims and the court system to try to get us out. This led, among other things, to the seriously mistaken and consequential view according to which I went to Istanbul a) to get fucked by the gorgeous mustaches called Mustafa and b) to suck out inspiration for my work and c) the two of them together.That’s why your fishing for Levantine jewels is prickling my indignation. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. It was the start of the recent infection of New Age “philosophy,” which led otherwise bright and exploratory intellects into dead ends like homeopathy, reflexology, numerology, astrology, crystal therapy, UFOs, New World Order, the Illuminati and more recently chemtrail conspiracies and anti-vaccination cults.My obdurate skepticism and need for empirical proof of any claim has kept me from falling for most of this claptrap, but nonetheless, I read a lot of it out of sheer fascination.I really didn’t know much about the author of TSTOAA until this year. And what 2) My work has been mostly associated with things past, placed, if not altogether outside the western contemporary, at least in an oblique or obscure relation to it. How does the literary operate in relation to your art? Skepticism. De Gébelin first asserted that symbolism of the Tarot de Marseille represented the mysteries of Isis and Thoth. He makes a lot of claims like “According to the mystics…” or “There is a legend…” that are not backed up any source reference.

This deplorable attitude simply reaffirms Sedgwick’s insight that common, popular knowledge is simultaneously disowned and reestablished in the construction of otherness.

Satire. I’ve had my share of gay imperialists, royalists, converts to the Catholic Church, even fascists and racists and, indeed, orientalists, so whenever someone comes close to that abominable realm — like ppp-Mamsel — I just kick off my heels and run! The rocks and earth correspond to the bones and flesh; the water to the various fluids; the air to the gases; and the fire to the bodily heat. )4) In “The Clay Hen,” the short story in the publication that accompanied ‘Undoolay,’ there is this sentence, in the very last paragraph of the tale, a few lines from the end: I have many other questions, about Seurat and Florine Stettheimer, but for now, and perhaps for I hope this note and these questions find you exceedingly well.I’ve returned from Athens five days ago and am now forced to fight a bacteriological infection, meaning I remain without, I went to NYC in 1990 for the first time in my life, to visit friends and find out how it felt to be there. Because, there being in the armed man contempt, and in the unarmed man suspicion, it is not possible for them to cooperate.” Too many don’t know that L.A. does, indeed, have seasons; they’re just not as dramatic as other parts of the world. At some point today, Donald Trump and Recep Tayyıp Erdoğan shook hands. According to Manly Palmer Hall (March 18, 1901 – August 29, 1990) was a Canadian-born author and mystic. (I settled for Berlin instead.) Exceptionally erotic. Before coming to an end, I want to thank you for the unbelievable Nureyev kouros: how many men he must have made dance on the ceiling, their bodies screaming. Culture. But I wish Avedon was still alive (and his times) to do a picture like that of my thirsted-for Hamdi Ulukaya. The documents remained in his hands for nearly a year, but no information is to be had concerning what occurred in that time. He is perhaps most famous for his work The Secret Teachings of All Ages: An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic and Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy, which is widely regarded as his magnum opus, and which he published at the age of 25 (or 27, 1928)A Canadian “mystic”?
