all art lovers this is a must attend, asap! KEITH HARING! nobody does it better!
Keith Haring: The Ten CommandmentsDate: Sunday, December 21stTime: 2:00pm - 8:00pm
Location: Deitch Projects in Long Island City (4-40 44th Drive, Queens) Cost: Free
The Ten Commandments, one of Keith Haring’s most powerful series of paintings, will be presented at Deitch Studios, Long Island City, from November 8, 2008 – February 15, 2009. The works portray the Ten Commandments from Haring’s point of view, combining a traditional Biblical interpretation with the artist’s liberating spirit and apocalyptic vision. The Ten Commandments were painted for Haring’s first solo museum show, a 1985 exhibition at the CAPC, Bordeaux, a reconverted wool warehouse with a span of twenty-five foot high archways supporting the roof. Thinking about how to best use the space, known as “the nave,” Haring had the inspiration to order ten tablet shaped canvases to fit within the arches. While on the dance floor at the Paradise Garage the day before leaving for Bordeaux, he had a vision to paint The Ten Commandments.

AARON DOUGLAS (Modernist/Philanthropist/Educator/SuperDOPE!)
Aaron Douglas is a gem of the Harlem Renaissance. His artwork personified the resiliency and tenacity that was the essence of African America in the 1920's. He was born just before the turn of the century, 1899 in Topeka, Kansas. He used his love for the arts to establish himself as an local painter, later attaining a M.F.A. from University of Nebraska in 1922.
Be that a success in itself, he began to teach arts in nearby Lincoln High School and soon after moved to Harlem, then epicenter of black thought, to test the waters. He left with no inclintation as to whether he would find work as an artist or if he did, whether his work would be accepted by those who had namesakes. Joining the New Negro Movement of the Harlem Renaissance, he flourished and his pictures last as both relics of that era and examples by which many artist follow to this day.
As a Modern artist he put the art world on its ear by combining the themes of slavery, black empowerment and the more contemporary ideas of industry, self image and racial and social identity. His work was featured in publications from Langston Hughes, James Weldon Johnson, social magazines of the period and his work has been prominently displayed throughout Fisk University and its varying departments. I visited the Smithsonian this summer and was blown away.

AUTO-SEX... Best... Kicks... Ever!
Jim Greco’s signature model, the Suprano High, gets the royal treatment with a tonal metallic purple upper. Staying in tune with Supra’s production of more color friendly high top sneakers, the Suprano surely holds it own with the arrival of Terry Kennedy’s signature kicks waiting on deck. Fully equipped with SupraFoam cushioning, mesh ventilation and Velcro support, this special colorway is set to release in early January 2009 at select Supra retailers including Factory 413.

yeah my Gz!
So im out her in a smalltown, MD... thinking to myself... wow NY is really an awesome place. I ne'er knew I could miss home so much. As my mind begins to ramble (and not roam) I find myself thinking of the last year I have spent in my hometown, NYC. The familiar odors of a train ride through Harlem @ 4 AM. The blatant yet veiled racism in most public eateries and elevators. The sheer delight on the jubilant homeless mans face when he knows he'll have a beer in his stomach before nights end. I know this feeling...I call it HOME.
In a very short time I will be lieving a place called HOME. (and yes its spelled like that on purpose). I hope to see you when I return to the HOUSE. peacington my Gz.

I want an honest and fallacy free statement. pause, no Gilz. You all remember this triumphant moment in contemporary film and/or cinema. The unification of a diverse American family, for its time- a wellspring of change and progress. But look we are not too far removed from the olden times.
Are WE?

Marc Jacobs X Louis Vuitton
This dvd has been entertaining me for the last 3 weeks and I thought I share it with you.
MJ x LV=Undeniable Swag
Since Louis Vuitton was revamped into an international brand in 1989 and brought Marc Jacobs on as its creative director and head designer some years later, it has shared in the success and brand cult following that is Marc Jacobs. Marc has an undeniable niche for melding the creative, destructive and chic... So much that the LVMH company sees profits increase at least 60% annually. He has taken the brand far beyond any expectations and brought its once exclusive fashion to the world.
My best friend Terrell and I have been die-hard Marc fans since '04-'05 because of its versatility and comfort. From its sneakers to its shirts and book bags all the way to its runway based apparel, you can find something you will love. If you haven't become acquainted yet with the man- please do. Be sure to visit www.marcjacobs.com and check out the DVD @ any of the links below.
(very cheap dvd! cheap in price not quality)
(very expensive! same quality)
and be sure to check out...

what up my Gz?
Many have one, but few know how to use it...
Can u tell me what it is?
Welcome all to what I hope is your first of many visits to a world built on the unconventional, vice-filled and eclectic mess that is my mind... which has become to me: worldPHOUR. It is a place that you too have been past or through but never made your residence.
LETS HAVE SOME FUN!
