If you live in the San Francisco area, you know the University of California’s Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive has a great program, and in great news, the BAM/PFA was awarded a $100,000 grant from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts for a Barry McGee retrospective exhibition in 2012. Can’t wait. (info via rvca)Barry McGee

i hope it kept the part about $100,000 and Andy Warhol because I was gonna segue or outro with the thing in the times today with berkeley getting reamed about losing a million dollar Johnson, Sargent Johnson carving that they sold for surplus for $150 which also reminds me that my chair in my office is from Charles Linder from his MFA at Berkeley reclaimed from surplus something about Bear Chair Lair I use it as an actual chair not part of an elaborate and hard to explain art project — i can insert my recent Linderism here — also I guess it doesn’t hurt or warp fabric of universe to add bit about meeting Barry at Claire show and him saying he would tag Palo Alto Caltrain station as public art commission if we get green light from that agency and PAPAC.
I also need to luck up that thing that Blake said about Brian Bosworth coined the neolism Johnson as men part? Neologism. Did I just write neo low gism?
