The Jumbo Bar From Jorge Najera: House Parties Will Never Be The Same



More on Leo Politi
A one day Jan 26 exhibition at the Pico House kicks off a year long tour of Leo Politi's works, some dating back to the 1930s.

The Jumbo Bar From Jorge Najera: House Parties Will Never Be The Same



…Richard Sajas does embroider-graffiti?
With a bit of creative embroidery, Richard Saja turns ordinary Toile de Jouy print into something extraordinary. Though TdJ print isn’t usually my style, I could definitely make a compromise for an embroider-graffitied piece like this.

Monday, January 14, 2008 Hahn in Review Summing up my 2007 isn’t easy. It was both an excellent year and a very difficult one. 1. In January, I reminisced about getting myself into trouble in my younger days when I couldn’t seem to date one person at a time. And, I was still replacing things from the break-in in November. 2. In February I lamented the fact I might end up like Murphy Brown having lost the first assistant I hired after six days. And, I shared my d

of public toilets: old ghosts and profligate chimeras
like almost every other public convenience in this city, the two facilities inside the 23rd Street/8th Avenue subway station, one of which is marked by this old whited-out tile sign, has been closed for decades Now once again [see this 2004 news article, and note that it was certainly not the first] we're being told that help really is on the way. The city fathers and mothers (who must never have had to pee, once they were out and about, since some time after World War II) have been tal

Quick Thoughts on The Sarah Connor Chronicles
I caught the premiere of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Unfortunately, I bought into the positive buzz I've heard around the InterTubes and set my expectations high. As a result, I was less than impressed. Here's why: ****** SPOILER WARNING ****** THE GOODCool premise. The idea of sending robots back in time to either prevent or maintain some future history is cool. (Of course, we all know that once there exists the power to do so, you wouldn't necessarily play out your strategies
