What’s Currenlty Inspiring You?... Part IX
From Blek Le Rat:

“I am in this time inspired by the twelve gods of the antique greece. For
the Greeks the gods did not create the universe neither the world but the
universe create gods. It was a time where the imagination was arousing and were
the reason did not controlled it. In those times anybody could see a nymph
escaping through the trees. The reason came later with the
christianism…. I was in Firenze in Italy last month and over
there the antique statues are outside in the squares of the city. This is
incridible. the Italian peolple live with those statues like the Romans lived
with them two thousands years ago. The time do not exist in this
beautiful country.”... blek

From Pure Evil:
“The photos of Nirvana by Charles Peterson ... he totally GETS the raw energy of the band…I love the destructive energy of Nirvana they FUCKING ROCK. I’ve been doing big paintings of Nirvana for a show Im doing in 2 weeks…. its going to kick ass
1. Sitting in the street next to silver mini’s drinking and checking out people…

sculptor and she has found thousands of animal bones by the side of the
Thames…They’re ancient, and they collect under the bridges… she uses them
for massive bone chandeliers. Its just WEIRD that rivers are supposed to bring
life to a city, yet they also bring so much death drifting in. (morbid
thought)
4. Art shows in independent galleries… this week I’ve seen the skull/motorcycle helmet (modern art), a massive sand zen sculpture machine (white cube), and a video of a vulture in an artists studio (haunch of venison) and theres a mountain of other shows out there…
5. Swedish girls who arrived in London a week ago are always a BIG Inspiration too.”... Pure Evil
