Fluno vs Silvercloud in a Paint Fight Fundraiser

The note card opened in its own window after I’d accepted the inventory offer from Mia Kitchensink. I scanned through it quickly and noting my friend Filthy Fluno’s propensity for creating “out of the ordinary” events, I decided that I needed to see this one with my own eyes. So I took the Linden taxi [...]

Farewell, Arthole

It is with regret we announce the closure of Arthole on September 30th 2009.
We are unfortunately unable to dedicate the necessary time to the gallery anymore, and for a number of other reasons feel it is time to move on and go our separate ways.
Get your [...]

Celebrate Life

I came across this piece, “Hand Holding Pebble” while doing some research for an article. The hand and fountain are the creation of Christian Sandell. The location is Karuna, a SIM “devoted to HIV/AIDS education, research, and to the collection of stories by those dealing with HIV/AIDS”. The SIM, is managed by Jenaia Morane who [...]
