Posted by juggernut3, April 28, 2009

Last week when Aiko opened her dynamic show “Love Monster” (covered) at Joshua Liner Gallery, we noted a great installation created out of hand painted, stenciled and collaged spray paint and gallon paint cans.Â Since the doors opened, there have beenÂ numerousÂ inquiries and requests, butÂ these little gems were unfortunately not available for sale.

Viewpoints: Murakami, MOCA & Louis Vuitton Sued by Disgruntled Speculator

Posted by juggernut3, April 24, 2009

Last summer, the MOCA was sued by a disgruntled speculator, Clint Arthur, over the sale of some lithographic prints from Takashi Murakami’s retrospective.

The judge quickly dismissed the charges of fraud in the initial case. Also, the MOCA has offered Arthur a refund with interest (which he refused, of course) and a certificate of authenticity for all their customers who wanted one. Now, Arthur is […]

Shoot more pictures. If you think you’re tired of running, you probably do not especially if you have a digital camera. There is no additional cost to take more pictures, so why take a photo when you can just take? Even the daily scenes can be memorable […]
