ALFREDO . . wants BENICIO DEL TORO to play him in the new ‘WE LIVE IN PUBLIC’ flick.<\/p>\n

APART FROM from his huge & fully functional shooting gallery installation at ‘QUIET’, Alfredo is also famous for his real . . ‘FAKE BASQUIAT’ caper, which merited him 2 years in the ‘THE BIG HOUSE’ \/ Metropolitan Corrections.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nthis is a recent one, from late last year 2017.
\nhe’s just born that way. he can Basquiat standing on his head.
\nhe can do Basquiat better than Basquiat can.<\/p>\n

ps: if you look at the ‘texts’, swirling around in the background, though . . you will see references . . . to stuff that is happening now<\/strong>, so they can’t possibly be . . by the real Basquiat.<\/p>\n

except now, he signs them off as his own, as the ‘REAL FAKE BASQUIAT FORGER’, instead of pasing them off for the real goods – to unsuspecting big ticket collectors, phony artist ‘certificate’ and all.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThis is one of Alfredo’s newest pieces of his own . . work.
\na portrait. he usually does guns, but he’s actually a wild portrait artist & he takes great photo head shots.
\nit is done in the collaged \/ hand-made Elmer’s white glued paper diy technique he perfected in prison, because he wans’t allowed to have any drawing or painting materials. he did portraits of the mobsters & con men around him, using coffee packages and jello as pigments, apparently he was a huge sensation.
\nthey are quite lifelike.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Alfredo has this portrait, and maybe more . . in a show opening tonight.<\/p>\n
