I give thanks for Yorgos Lanthimos. My partner and I saw “Bugonia” last night and really enjoyed it. The art direction at the end is stellar.

A foggy #evening in Portland, OR - for the #blueskyartshow - I used to be a regular at this place when I worked around the corner. That was 2016-2020. I was in the neighborhood again a few months ago to see a concert and took this pic.

I’ve been spending the majority of my art time cleaning up scans of my “Year Zero” series (2022-24) for an upcoming artists’ book. Not fun, but necessary. #art

One final post on this topic: Vincent Price & Edward G. Robinson were such avid collectors that in 1956 they competed against each other answering questions about art on TV quiz show "The $64,000 Challenge." They both missed the final question & so split the top prize www.nytimes.com/1956/10/29/a...
