These sculptures are made only from plastic bottles and metal screws. For my readers in the Chicago area, the White Columns show is moving to Gallery 312 next.

Republican Babes

I don’t think it’s a parody site: JerseyGOP has a Republican Babes section including a former Playboy centerfold who says “I am incredibly conservative, I dress conservatively. I live conservatively. I have a very strong belief in God. I watch Rush Limbaugh on television.”

Art at Johnson on Orchard Street (LES)

I dropped by an opening tonight at my friend Kim’s shop Johnson tonight. She has an exhibit of photographs by Anthony Gasparro. If you’re on the LES, stop buy and buy a photo or two — they’re priced to sell — or if you’re a girl (or just girly) pick up some of Kim’s fashion stylings.

Bush out selling his plan in the key heartland red states, and maybe even in some of the blue bi-coastal states.
