Blasts from the Past

Anyone in Atlanta who recalls Lisa Fischman’s 2002 “Paradise in Search of a Future” show at the Contemporary will be delighted at the chance to see Walid Raad’s video work on November 6 and the man himself on November 7 in ART PAPERS LIVE! at Emory University.

Details at http://www.artpapers.org/special_events/live.htm

Raad is remembered here for the Atlas Group project, featuring a full typology of all the models of automobiles involved in car bombings during the long Lebanese civil war, itself an event which has since gone through re-runs and sequels.

I saw Raad’s stuff first at the Contemporary, then a few months later at Documenta 11.

This visit will be different, and will include screenings at Emory University’s White Hall that you will not see elsewhere in Atlanta, and in very few locations anywhere else outside the inner circles of the art world.

this blogspot conversation, which I keep forgetting to check to forward to my e-mail, must read like surrealist prose to any outsider not aware of the other posts to which the replies refer.

narnia, check out the conversation your post has elicited over on joculum.livejournal.com.

hushpuppy gallery, I'm going to try to get by again today to see if you're around. your website appears to still not be fully launched.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a thing, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For quite a long time, I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my blog to get additional info.
