Home Education & Two Dogs

HBO has been airing new HBO Documentary Films every Monday.

That's how I learned about the artist Chuck Connelly.

A contemporary of Basquiat and Schnabel in the 80's art scene.

Scorsese featured his paintings in his segment of "New York Stories".

And now, after years of alienating every collector and gallery owner, he's back to being a schnook like everybuddy else.

Check out the fascinating,

"The Art of Failure."

It ends a little abruptly and you wonder what the point was, but still fascinating.

Connelly's got a pretty awesome website with a well-designed virtual gallery. Check it out if you're stuck at work waiting to get fired. Be my friggin' guest.
