Jack Spicer
3o January, 1925 - 17 August, 1965. The Collected Books of Jack Spicer, "The Practice of Outside", an essay by Robin Blaser - "At first this was short and simple - about Jack. But that became a reduction which every twist and turn of the work denied - a biography without the world poet earned or a split between the man and the work which drank him up and left him behind."

The Changing Face of Childhood
Dulwich Picture Gallery - "The writing of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau and painters such as Gainsborough and Thomas Lawrence, changed the perception of childhood forever. They were portrayed as individuals in their own right and not just little grown-ups. These videos, presented by Ian Dejardin, Director of Dulwich Picture Gallery, chart the change in portraiture of children during this important time in history."

"It took time - too much time - for the magnitude of Diebenkorn's achievement to be fully recognized in New York. For entirely figurative artists, of course, it was harder still."

"Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced."

"The images in my art inspired by basic human needs: shelter, food, clothing, work, and intimacy. They take the form of the human body, human artifacts and architecture, and vegetable and animal life. In my sculpture, prints, and drawings, the nutural world connects with the human-made world.
