Extraordinary art must be tamed.
Simon Grindberg is the world’s most illustrious children’s book writer and illustrator, but his next masterpiece is a decade overdue.

A Journal of Poetry, Prose and Art
Engaging revival of Terence McNally’s 1971 near-monologue comedic memory rant of “Where Has Tommy Flowers Gone.” David Gow is charismatic as the dreamer & schemer in a time of great flux, one in a long line of fast-talking, sex-crazed, man-child rebels without a cause. Several set pieces stand out including Gow imagining himself as a child meeting James Dean, where Gow plays Dean to a tee (pun intended), and a stunningly funny and pathos-filled daydream where he plays Marilyn Monroe, the happy birthday Mr President boozy and insecure but still vivacious Marilyn. #offbroadway #theater
SWEET INDICTMENT - Randy Rainbow Song Parody
We met only once, at some magazine launch party years and years ago: he was quiet and gracious and yet a commanding presence...
Among his many honors, Mr. Ashbery was the first poet to win the Pulitzer, the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award.
We were torn when we saw the show in late Spring. Humor, brazen reconstruction, at times haunting, close to the melancholy that David Salle refers to in his appreciative essay. But on reading this piece I may have to reconsider my initial overall nonplussed reaction. A memory-based rethink could be in order.

Wonder Woman: The Weird, True Story
Wonder Woman was an explicitly feminist creation. Yet younger generations of feminists have lacked an awareness of the degree to which this is so. So Wonder Woman is also the symbol of a culture-wide amnesia…
