BMW GUGGENHEIM LAB OPENING RECEPTION

When two colossal entities such as BMW and Guggenheim get together to transform a vacant lot in New York City into a fully-functioning event space for an evening of music curated by Thurston Moore, long-lost footage from TV Party (1978–1982) presented by Glenn O’Brien, and summer fare by Roberta’s, you know THE INKWELL is going to be there to support. I popped in on the festivities after a long day at the office to unwind, listen to some cool vibes and catch up with old friends while making new ones. Here’s a taste of what Eye Spy’d down on Houston street.

EYE SPY: WALL ART

I popped into this club, DROM, down in the East Village over the weekend and Spy’d these two pieces.

EYE SPY: HACULLA

Skater, Graffiti Writer, Artist, Fashionista and Lady Killer. And not in that particular order. If your not in the know – your in the “not” so here’s your chance to get in the know.

EYE SPY: WALL ART

Eye Spy’d these at PANDA on Chrystie Street down in LES, where you can find anything from good art to good music to a good swift kick in the – well, you know.

EYE SPY: Sleepless Knights

In case you were caught up in feeling sorry for yourself, here’s a little reminder that there’s, literally, “no place like home” when your fortunate enough to have one.

Haiku #69

sex and opiates:
the copious conundrum
of life, spiraling.

Haiku #633: THE SLEEPLESS KNIGHT

a dead man walking,
moving through life without light,
captured by the night.

Haiku #216

the corner-hugging,
star-struck, chasers of a knight
that dies come morning.
