Michael Worful put the above animation together.

There is a new issue of Esopus Magazine! As always, it looks terrific. There is a piece on the film Killer of Sheep by Charles Burnett in the magazine. Bill told me about this film a couple of years ago and I like it a lot.

Travis Millard is an outstanding drawer and so is Mel Kadel. Mel has a show up right now at Nancy Margolis Gallery.

The creative people at Full Life made a DVD compilation of some of their films. If you would like to give things a look before purchasing they have videos on YouTube. I recommend getting the DVD. There are four films on it!!

The new drawing exhibit at The Museum of Modern Art is impressive. I was excited to see a lot of the pieces, especially some Robert Crumb drawings, a big Marcel Dzama painting, and some Ray Johnson works.

From what I hear, this is one club that we all want to be in (Nancy took that picture!).

I am excited about these Jean Painlevé science films. Yo La Tengo did the score.

There was a nice mention of Partners & Spade in The New York Times Style Magazine yesterday. If you look very carefully, with a magnifying glass, squinting, you can see the drawer with my drawings in it. If you are in the neighborhood stop in and check out some of the things there.

This looks like fun. When else are you going to have the chance to be a billionaire!?!

There was a whale in New York Harbor!


There is a new Jacob Ciocci and Shana Moulton film showing on TV! It is an Acid Rain Production. If you are in Raleigh, Durham or Chapel Hill, watch! If you are not in those places you can watch this!

François Vuilleumier will be signing copies of Birds of North America tomorrow, 1:00pm Saturday, April 11, 2009, at The America Museum of Natural History. There are some of the 132 Birds at The American Museum of Natural History prints still available. There is one big bird drawing left right here. Also these!!!

Leslee Frumin does nice work.

There are copies of The Every Piece of Art in The Museum of Modern Art Book and McSweeney's #30 that are signed and drawn in at the bookstore at P.S.1 right now.

Brian Rea is an excellent artist.

Mr. Michael Worful has a nice new series of photographs on his website.

A bunch of 20x200 things happening right now! and Monday night!

There is a new Jim Gaffigan DVD that is out. THERE ARE PALE FORCE CARTOONS ON IT. On that note, Paul Noth has a funny cartoon in the New Yorker this week. He is one of my favorite cartoonists.

The Park Life Animal Stack T-Shirt is now available in their store.
