"…the female narcissist is dangerous to patriarchy because she obviates the desiring male subject (loving herself, she needs no confirmation of her desirability from him). in the case of an artistic practice that performs female narcissism (such as wilke’s), the threat lies in its making superfluous the arbiters of artistic value. already presuming her desirability, wilke obviates the modernist critical system; loving herself, she needs no confirmation of her artistic “value."

In researching fashion films for a story on… fashion films, I found this early Richard Avedon clip of Lauren Hutton c. 1973. Questions raised include: were models better actors then, or were they simply older, with stronger personalities? Was this maybe a beginning or a sign of the beginning to our obsession with the curated behind-the-scenes of fashion showdom? And why can’t I have that dress?

Saw one of these Dan Colen tar-and-feather paintings at the Venus Over Manhattan opening last night. Jenna curled her nose a little, but I love it; it’s innocence and beauty and freedom mired in evil, like art itself, I think.
Also I’m stilllllllll hungover from absinthe, UGH. Life is as hard as we make it.

“There is nothing like talking to somebody IRL, it’s true. There is also nothing like body language or like the feeling of being looked at when you want to be. But when it’s good there’s really nothing like sexting.”
