~FUNNY/NOT FUNNY?/HOW’S MY DEALING !!

oh. oh. oh !!

FILE THIS UNDER: WHAT GOES AROUND – COMES AROUND – LIKE BLOW-BACK VOMIT – IN YOUR FACE !!

aka WHERE THERE’S SMOKE – THERE’S (USUALLY) FIRE !!

It’s not so much that it’s mean-spirited, though it has its share of sour grapes, NOR !! .. is it making a case for gallerists to start making their employees sign – confidentiality agreements !!

as much as it seems to be forum & only resort – for those who’ve been ripped off – or got bounced checks.
it’s a toss-up who uses it more – pissed off artists who are owed for work that was sold – and sometimes can never collect !!
. . . and gallery workers who issue warnings about galleries that make you wait forever to get paid, or worse bounce checks, or worse – are trust fund entitled snobs – who treat you like dirt !! !!

BECKY SMITH of BELLWETHER seems to have accrued the most comments – 20.

JACK THE PELICAN, and FREIGHT+VOLUME are UP IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, too.
and, 303 seems to have attracted a super ferocious – anonymous – web foe !!

THE WORST PUT-DOWN & ONE WE FEEL FREE TO HIGHLIGHT – AND VOUCH FOR – WITH 100% CERTAINTY – FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE – FROM HIS EARLIEST OPENINGS – & – WE HAVE NEVER WALKED – INTO THE SPACE – SINCE – !! – IS THE BITTER ONE – MICHAEL STEINBERG – HAS GARNERED.

so if that makes the other stuff credible – so be it !!
though obviously – there are just some sore losers in the mix, so don’t take it all at face value !!

the wish-washy takes on critics and curators – is the weak point.

the best rumor so far ?? !! – posted JUNE 7/2008 – by anonymous – “i hear nates leaving her” !!
with her – being – MICHELE MACCARONE !!

the YouTube offering at the top of the DEATHWATCH – is the most brilliant touch !!

so, ladies & gentlemen of the stodgey, street smart, unformed, or just plain uninformed, informed, inspired and wannabes !! – for better, or worse – I give you the link to the ratworld’s – oops, typo !!! I mean artworld’s dirty little secret – but one that, has everybody – on their toes !!

see: HOW’S MY DEALING !!!

and don’t miss the soundtrack – to their ‘DEATHWATCH’ – hit that FORWARD/ARROW – on their site, dumb-ass !!
