Off to Kyoto for the weekend -- sporting a gaudy new eyepatch, rowrrrrr -- for an art opening, a museum show of Modern Style in East Asia, a somewhat crappy matsuri, and a film festival. Plus of course visits to the Cafe Independent and Keibunsha Books.

Date: 2004-09-18 08:40 pm (UTC)momus (the artist) is a true winner, but i have still not forgiven him for the day i spent lying in the drug park, listening to his music, feeling awful, but somehow not being able to turn it off.
however, my excursion into unfair criticism of the musical gods has failed. it has not brought me any satisfaction to compare his face to that of a cold rotting skeleton, deep beneath the earth. maybe if my criticism were more heartfelt, i would be sated. momus actually looks quite sun-drenched and healthy in most of his pictures. i wonder if he has a lazy eye, though. or maybe Mal Occhio. maybe its some nietzsche-inspired homage to the evil hearts of pirates.
my name is not kajiu, i am not japanese.
i wanted to see how he would respond to someone who appeared to be japanese.

Date: 2004-09-20 07:01 pm (UTC)I briefly considered entering the next door "Art Zone" which would have meant stumbling upon that opening party. However the last exhibition I saw there was pretty lame. The Mammoth thing looks pretty good though. What I was after in Media Shop was a volume of Bonnard's paintings. But as usual I was distracted by other books and when I eventually made my way to the back of the shop where books on painting are, it was time to leave for a machi-awase (another nice word).
