Wouldn't it be refreshing to wake up in a room with pictures like these on the walls? Here are some snaps from Susan and Michael Horts guest room, the greatest guest room in the world.
I couldn't care less about Elizabeth Payton's work but I put it in the pic below so to show the scale of the beautiful little Neo Rausch next to it. I've never seen Rausch work on a small scale and thought this painting was a gem.
Simon Watson gave a tour of the collection which he rehangs once a year. The Horts have over 2000 works, he picks out about two hundred to show. Their collection is far and away the greatest contemporary collection I've seen.
A Jim Lambie drawing hangs in the stairwell.
Felix Schramm made the instalation and sculpture below. The wall looks like it got wacked by a wrecking ball. The small sculpture has an off center record playing and it sounds insane. Thumbs up Felix Schramm, whoever you are.

I don't need to go to Peyton Place ever again--if you catch my meaning.
As for the Rausch--so beautiful. I wanna see it. It's like a lucious little corner of one of his huge paintings.

Oh, someone just told me to see that. I will go see Mamma.
I am have to say, I have been thinking of "Progress..." a lot these last couple of days. I'm gonna take a friend to see it next week.

corny, would you PLEASE tell mr. and mrs. hort about the "adopt-a-sloth" program that is also a BRILLIANT WORK OF CONTEMPORARY ART... i really don't want to go live with Saatchi, and the fucker is breathing down my tufted neck. Thank you.
p.s. were there donuts?

Sloths there was a donut palace the size of the Taj Mahal, it was glistening and beautiful and radiant on the outside, claustrophobic on the inside what with the jelly filling and all.
that installation looks exactly how I feel right now--aka wrecked. spent the weekend with my new bipolar "boyfriend." I use quotes because I don't think boyfriend is the exact word, when he walks down the street and tells me about all the beautiful women in NYC he wants to fuck. opps, soory. is that dirty word allowed on this blog? Manic people are so exciting. it's hard to stay away, despite the danger he poses to my fragile psyche. We spent Saturday in PA driving down to see his psychiatrist. fun third date.
Dear Gentle Readers,
As a kind of salute to mainstream media, we here at ABCN engage in factless reporting whenever possible. I have no idea who painted the images I posted, I forget names of artists unless I've seen their shows and they make a big impact. I got an email inquiry this morning asking who painted the picture of the pirate leaning on the wood wall with the smoke face coming out of the bottle. Does anyone know who painted that one and what gallery they show with?

ps--
the Mutter museum in Philly is a must-see: cojoined triplets, a real-live human face with a six inch horn, fetus skeletons from every gestational stage, a gouty big toe, saggital brain slices, eyeball specimens of every shape and flavor, shrunken heads, detailed anatomic models from the 19th century. many more beautiful exhibits of organic and non-orgainic media...

Hey Anon, I LOVE that crazy museum! Did you see the tumor the size of a medicine ball and the flatfiles drawers full of stuff people swallowed and passed
i.e.,
glass
nails
rubber balls
teeth
fishing hooks

the doctor of that tumor patient let the lump stay in her so it could grow and break a world record. He got some noteriety...
I missed the tumor. I get a bit too much of that stuff on a daily basis. the ear bone collection is what really brought me to my knees. so clean and shiny! no yucky earwax to extract. I just wanted to take a whole bag of them home to put on display in my apartment.
maybe a phd in the history of medicine will be a legit way for me to curate my own "Anon museum of medical curiosities." better than the slave work I'm supposed to be doing right now...
I remember freaking out at the world's largest colon at the Mutter. I guess it was only a model, like a soft sculpture, but still. It was like the size of the whole room. And the soap lady, too.
you'll be happy to hear that the colon is still hanging in there, dominating that whole room of the museum
I love the colon as interior design element. Thinking swolen lymph glands as been bag chairs would really make a room.
Yes Corny! That is why I had my colon removed and it is draped over my sofa. It is a squishy pillow that I nestle in when watching Tony and Carmella.
Please check out my new line of decorative innards at Kmart. Have you ever tried sleeping on a pancreas?
Oh sapphire I know that place! Puttis made out of baby skulls with hip bone wings over the doors. Really expands the idea of how to live inside our bodies.
or something.

My grandma has an intestinal couch, but she keeps it covered in plastic so that there is no leakage.
I suspected it might be disgusting, but this is all I've ever known. I just thought it was part of my grandma's many "sacrifices" for her grandchildren.
The national police reassignment task force is coming to enforce bitter stings on my tongue. They are threatening to replace me with a bra.
PD, my grandmother had an apartment in brooklyn, every inch was covered in plastic. She had china piled up in display cabinates which shook when you walked by them, really the most oppressive apartment of all time. The chandelier was chrystal and I'd get totally high staring at it for hours during passover and stuff. I woulda much prefered your grandmothers apartment. Is it too late for your family to adopt me?
I'm so imbarassed, while I'm waxing on about my stupid childhood tramas you kids are having a hoedown
Corns, I had everything but the traumatic, creepy crystal. Your gramps had creep conciousness?
I will adopt all of you!
I will adopt all of you!
Geez, Corns, I don't know 'bout that. There are some creepy-crawlies down there. But I guess I'll sacrifice the huge sunny room for you special folks. Just don't touch the rifle under the bed.
stop your worries. That seems like a non sequitur but it wasn't.
Steamy? you aint seen NOTHING madry. Now drop and gimme 20.

Hey pd, i got a tech question:
Do you or anyone out there know how to load MP3s on to the blog? I wanna post songs from my itunes that people can link to.

You so funny Corns! I know about mp3s, but when it comes to doing fancy links on the blogs...I am really stupid. I bet Slothers or FB know. Or Krixfort should know it for sure.
Anonymous 10:32 this boyfriend is bringing shame to both the polyamorous and batshit communities. He must be covered in plastic until he uses his OCD for good (organizing your spice rack) not evil (objectifying other ladies).
Anon, I somehow missed your comment...
thank you kelli for picking it out and responding. Anon 10:32, just remember, easy does it girlfriend. A third date to Philly to see the shrink might be a red flag? Though are you the same anon who went to the Mutter museum? Must be. That is romantic, I took Mrs.Cub there on our first weekend away when we were dating.

The Mutter museum always works I think. It is one of those aphrodisiac insanity places. Good luck anon, your new bf sounds like a real something.
