很多人來讀我的Blog,很多人來買我的作品...

可以在blog上說謊嗎?或稱它為鼓勵性的期許吧!
到了年底怎麼有想跳過這一截的欲望?
懶懶地努力創作,希望忙碌的新年慢點到,又希望拖累進度的節日快點消失,
像拖著壞掉的火車頭一樣,
辛苦緩慢又不情願地行進著...

白色的聖誕節最美了

冷冷的冬夜裡燃燒的松果啪啪啪地說著破裂的故事

有時候我想我對都市的生活已經疲倦了...

US artists, where are you?

Berlinde De Bruyckere, Wezen, 2003-2004, at the Düsseldorf Quadriennale 2006.


International Herald Tribune has a wide coverage of art happenings around the world. One often gets the pleasure of reading them on the international flight... what a refreshing smell.
I shall not criticize the homogeny of contemporary US art because i myself am also one of those who are still trapped in the trading of traditional sculptures and paintings. Great thinkers in the art world are actively performing in the euro market, I want to bash my head against the wall for one, I wish i can be that good; two, our "art costco" has not yet learned to appreciate art with content. The vicious circle of conservative collectors and fearful artists cultivates mold in young artists' hearts.

anyway, IHT offers slide show with major articles on art. What a feast when you can't get real Chinese food in Chinese restaurants any more!!
and talking about Chinese, don't be fooled by the hot tamale Chinese contemporary art market. Most collectors are real estate developers who have too much money laying around. "let's do art today," they say, "until renewable energy or africa becomes the next investment babe."
