Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition

I went to the Art Exhibition yesterday with my eldest. It has grown over the past few years. Just about every inch of Nathan Phillips Square was occupied. The artists also seem more temperamental as well. At least Sally Milne's husband seemed to have been pissed that I was taking a photo of her booth. I think some of the more pretentious few seemed to have forgotten that they were in a public space -- regardless, I still think Sally Milne's art is cool -- especially her rudely shaped lemons. (Yes, I'm bitter.) Other artists of note:
  • Shawn McPherson
  • Bonnie Brooks
  • Jan Peng Wang
  • Anita Niemeyer-Archibald
  • Paul Turner
  • Sandra Tarantino
  • Yana Movchan
  • Alejandro Rabazo
  • Thomas Hendry

    Civil disobedience is called for

    In an act of desperation, Tim DeCristopher chose civil disobedience to disrupt the bidding process that saw 149,000 acres of public land leased off to oil companies in Utah. The lease of the land to oil companies, to allow drilling, has been contested by many who wish to preserve the pristine land, located near Arches National Park, the White River, the greater Desolation Canyon region, Labyrinth Canyon, the benches east of Canyonlands National Park, Nine Mile Canyon, the Book Cliffs and the Deep Creek Mountains. It is one of the final sell-off by the dying Bush administration. DeCristopher showed at the auction, registered as a bidder, and started bidding -- and winning -- with no intention of purchasing or paying for the auctions he won. Way to go dude! You're a hero!
