Text for Mimi Lauterās beautiful show āShekhina,ā on view at Matthew Brown till 6/6. Writing this was special for me ā got to dig up old thoughts about Jewish mysticism and relation to place from an art historical perspective. Go see the show!
Jon Pestoni More Bermuda Than Pizza at Zodiac Pictures open 4/11-5/9. I love this show and I loved writing about it ā I just channeled pure Pestoni which I hope everyone is able to do at some point in their lives. Tyyyy Kate & Zodiac pictures!!!!!
My great grandparents were Bundists. My great grandfather and namesake served multiple prison sentences in Poland for his fight against antisemitism, nationalism, and the persecution of the working class. They vehemently opposed Zionism from its first inception, as the natural common sense conclusion of a humanist, egalitarian political party. For all my life, this history has been very difficult to explain to even my closest friends. Today, Molly Crabappleās heroic triumph, āHere Where We Live Is Our Country: The Story of the Jewish Labor Bund,ā is available for purchase. Run, donāt walk, to get this precious history in your hands. I underlined almost every sentence. More writing and events around this incredible achievementā¦ stay tuned šŖāļøā¤ļøāš„
Of the thousands of girls who have loved getting wasted at Taixā¦. Iām the one in the LA Times!!!! All thanks to Sammy. Hurts to think of how much Iāll miss this musty placeā¦.
