I have just been reading the always great but lately really fantastic Open Space blog that Suzanne Stein curates at SFMOMA. I highly recommend checking it out right away. Norma Cole is among the current columnists. She posted a poem today with a film clip, images etc. as she has similarly done at various other times in the last few months. There are also some wonderfully depressing comments by Jasper Bernes in relation to Stephanie Syjuco's multiartist project Shadowshop, descriptive and also depressing comments by Erika Staiti and other delights. Reading through these posts has slipped me nicely into an appreciative warmth of community art feeling which is lighting the tunnel at the end of Friday.

Just got this link to Alan Halsey's excellent Beginning to End, along with this lovely interview of Alan by Gregory Vincent St. Thomasino.

This blog is waking back up. More soon.
