Crack City, USA"},"content":{"rendered":"

left behind on the cutting room floor – a bit of a contrarian himself – WALTER ROBINSON didn’t always tow the celebrity line.
\nwhat the F, you cut: Marco Brambillo ?!!<\/a> that’s harsh, dude.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\non the right: art world hustler – KENNY SCHACTER.
\nwith him MARCO BRAMBILLA, the director of Demolition Man, the movie – starring SYLVESTER STALLONE.<\/p>\n

the event that captured 3 pix on artnet that summer of 2003<\/a> was produced and curated by KENNY SCHACTER, then based in NYC. it was called ‘ART BAND: A NIGHT of MUSIC and ART’.
\nit took place at CAPITALE, JULY 24, 2003.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nCHARLIE FINCH, artnet scribe – scribbling away. bookcased by 2 beauties.
\nnote the ‘knee’ action. classic.
\ndon’t mind me girls, I’m just doing my job.<\/p>\n

p.s. if Walter branded me: artlovers – Charlie called me ‘Crackula’ – ‘crack’ for short !! now you know, why !!
\nand btw: I like Crack, better. as opposed to artlovers.
\nCrackula, of course – is up there with dingleberries. the height of art criticism in NYC – ca. the 21st C. ha.<\/p>\n

and whose gonna be shooting dingleberries, now, that’s what I’d like – to know. I’ll take one dingleberry, even if it’s going in the wrong direction !! over 10 pretentious academically anemic snots, twittering about work – we already know is no good, duh. any day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nfrom left:
\nEMMA GRAY<\/a>, now based in LA, who was then the Features editor for Art Review, with Art Review’s then marketing Director, EMILY BUTLER, and, yes – that’s how marketing directors have to ‘present’. don’t get me wrong, she is p–r-e-t-t-y. pop culture journalist, CHRIS LEE is on the right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nMELISSA BROWN, one of her tree ‘code’ – time atravelin’ paintings behind her.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nTAYLOR McKIMENS, summer of 2003. KENNY SCHACTER was a big early supporter of Taylor’s.
\nbut Walter was not. summer of 2003, not yet for TAYLOR McKIMENS !!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nearly TAYLOR McKIMENS cheeseburger painting – all dressed !! but not making the . . . cut.
\nomg – was it those sesame seeds on the bun that gave rise – to the later ‘drips’ ??!!
\nart history in the making – on the top of a cheeseburger bun.
\nnot to forget the . . . greasy hamburger meat droplets.<\/p>\n

p.s. in the old Amish ‘hex’ paintings – those ‘drops’ – they added to their iconic rural American imagery, plastered on many a barn door – stood for: fertility.
\nraindrops, not. sperm – yes !! but, hush that’s a secret – don’t tell anybody.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nTAYLOR McKIMENS hadn’t quite hit his stride, til he dumped junk food for Southern white trucker trash !! – but the seeds of his rise – were there for all to see, except that – this time they fell on deaf ears. the Robinson cut – could be so cruel.
\nbut, how fun !! instead Walter posted a photo of Taylor’s then girlfriend MISAKI KAWAI !! <\/a>
\nha.<\/p>\n

hey, whatever it takes to make the site rock n roll. . . learned it from Walter. it’s called: spite and cut.
\naka . . . don’t believe your own press. he who puts you up, can surely take you . . . down.
\nthat’s what they used<\/em> to say, bout Walter. but, hey, also just between you and me – he beat Artforum, 100% pants down. 24\/7. and, ain’t that the truth.<\/p>\n

as for me, it was<\/em> fun – being in the middle of that way sexy Walter \/ Charlie sandwich !!
\nhey, why wouldn’t someone who knows how to stitch, not know how to ‘spin’ – ?<\/p>\n

case in point.
\nlike Charlie liked to complain, and quite often. does the world revolve around Nancy ?
\nhell – yes. crack, so !!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nNANCY SMITH . . . on the beat for artnet. NEW YORK CITY. NOV 2, 2002.
\nwith SCOTT the doorman – at Gavin Brown’s notorious and long gone, and oft lamented – Passerby.
\nsomebody grabbed my camera, I think it was . . . PETER COFFIN ?<\/p>\n
