ASUPREMENEWYORKTHING

I think this is still going on right now. He’s a small man and he looks like his art. Seriously, I need to get a new goddamn camera. Anyway, yeah, he’s a small little man who doesn’t speak much and has some feminine mannerisms. He’s part of the early 90’s Beijing art movement “Cynical Realism.”

Being there, standing near all this art makes me wonder what will happen to him. I hope he gains more notoriety in the US. I hope he doesn’t become kitschy. Look at the piece below with Garfield and that other comic character, I don’t remember his name. What is that? That piece feels forced and out of place.

I noticed that all his pieces is him in this pink color and with his eyes closed. Maybe I should have waited for him to turn pink. He started drinking alcohol while I was there. But if he’s from Beijing, he probably has high tolerance. Okay, look at the pictures and leave me alone.

So a funny thing happened at work. Yesterday, oh, and I’m still at that bullshit job I’m trying to quit, but yesterday I totally fucked up. Well, it was last week I totally fucked up, and what happened was that I had to file this application for some client. Anyway, I filed the wrong file and there was a deadline and I had to redo it yesterday. Anyway, my supervisor was talking to me today and was asking me about it and was trying to figure out what had happened. She’s really nice and she was all, oh, it must have been because of this… or that… but not really implying that it was my fault. In response, I was just like, “no, it was my fault.” I think at this point I just don’t really give a shit and I saw this mistake really as a way of convincing them that I’m not that great of an employee and maybe it’s time I should leave. They are convinced that I’m this great worker. I mean, I take the work seriously but I’m trying to get out of there. Anyway, if you’re interested in this exhibition, it is there through January 6, 2008.
