The above image is an extraordinary gift about a dozen of my pals pitched in on to buy me for me birthday. Inspired in part by the legendary Lelila’s Hair Art Museum in Independence, MO this work was discovered and purchased at New York City’s own Obscura Antiques & Oddities.
Hair art was a common practice during Victorian times. It was a means to record family histories, given as an intimate gift between loved ones as well as a way to memorialize the dead. Most families constructed their own pieces hiring a jeweler to add only the final touches. These beautiful crafted works come in a variety of designs and constructions from hair flowers and wreaths to braided bracelets and brooches.

Last night I attended a Stranger then Fiction series screening of the excellent How to Draw a Bunny. My pal John Walter investigates the life and death of pop artist Ray Johnson. The film is a mix of hi 8 video, helicopter shots, interviews with icons from the pop art scene, readings of Ray’s letters by Judith Malina and an original music score by Max Roach.
Director John Walter’s new film Theater of War, about the staging of Bertolt Brecht‘s Mother Courage, opens at Film Forum Dec. 24th, 2008.
