my wish for the art world, going forward !!
more . . . Mojo Risin !!
“If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is: INFINITE.”
‘WHEN YOU’RE STRANGE’, DIRECTED BY TOM DiCILLO (2009)
the most superlative film on JIM MORRISON, and The Doors, if not the most superlative film / documentary . . ever.
I’m surprised – not more people know about it.
a ‘riveting’ time-traveler, using real footage, it’s . . a mind-blower.
WATCH: THE TRAILER / ‘WHEN YOU’RE STRANGE’, 2009 & turn the music up – full BLAST.

you say . . . bananas ?
I say: JIM MORRISON !!!!
& while we are on the topic / of how clueless – the mainstream art world is:
Y’all . . . can call art: visionary, rebel, formal / even theory, skills & functional, but please leave
‘practice’ . . . to the doctors who take out your appendix / thanks.
