Isn't This Lovely?

Hand me my shank, some artist-type is fucking with our Crackie of Camden. Nobody fucks with Wino, but us! We're the only ones allowed to make fun of her ass! Can you believe this shit right here? Artist Marco Perego created of a statue of Wino, dead in a pool of blood. There's a statue of William Burroughs near her, carrying a gun. It is selling for $100,000. Good fucking luck selling that mess.

The hos at NYC's Half Gallery said Marco made it as a tribute to Wino and Burroughs. They explained this shit: "In September of 1951, William Burroughs, playing a dangerous game of William Tell, shot his wife Joan Vollmer in the head and killed her. This sculpture is a re-creation of that event which is conflating timelines and literary history to create something that's fantasy but is totally lifelike."

Lifelike?! Wino hasn't looked like that for years. The sculpture is too clean, too fat and Wino wouldn't be caught dead (pardon the pun) with nails that shiny and new looking! She doesn't leave the house unless her fingers are covered in crack dirt and ciggie smoke. And what the hell kind of GD outfit is that?! Is that Wino or a soccer mom? And I'm going to pretend I'm not looking at that Minnie Mouse mask. That shit should've been a box of ice pops instead.

There's no need to get my shank. This obviously isn't our Wino!

Okay, halt the presses. After overly staring at this mess of a photo I've come to this conclusion:

Disney mask/Red bell pepper with apple stem/white skin-dark hair
........

Take the apple = death
Just like Eve, the fruit of temptation.

Burrough's wifey had a daughter too by her first husband. She was sent to live with her maternal grandparents. His son was sent to live with his parents in Florida while he lived around the world and did as he pleased. He died early from damaging his liver. He was also an alkie like daddy and a writer as well. They didn't get on very well.

Also never understood why Bono of all people had him in a U2 in a video. Since Bono is opposed to violence and murderers.

Wino won't die in a pool of blood. Pool of vomit, maybe. Pile of cocaine, maybe. But it won't be a pool of blood. She doesn't have any.

Its not a bell pepper, its an apple.

Burrough's did a Willaim Tell on his wifey. Put an apple on her head and shot at it...but missed the target.

And he got away with it too! He skipped Mexico while awaiting trial for his crime. I've oftened wondered how his son felt about it?
..........

I didn't know he had one! Where's ESE when you need him. He'd probably know.

And why couldn't this pic be of Wonky. I want answers dammit!!!

That's some rotten artist you are correct MK - warm pink skin tone and not a speck of blood (or one stray hair) out of place. Wino should look as healthy as this thing that just got blasted in the brain with a bullet, on a daily basis please.

I think only a statue could have nails that perfect. Which is not Winehousey at all!

Uh huh.

What he meant to say was: "Wino (inexplicably) is a hot commodity right now and if I make her look dead on the floor I'll get lots of publicity"

LoLo, as far as I can figure he was very drunk that night when it occured. She his wife who was addicted to bennies was probably smashed to. When he was writting Junky and trying to get it published this happened. His publisher wanted him to write about for the book but he refused. And I don't think he ever wrote or talk about it.

KD, I considered that too but the shape and coloring and indentations look like a red bell pepper and NOT an apple. Apples don't grow with those kind of indentations. The artist [if he was trying to convey an apple] is obviously a confused fucktard. lol

I think it's snowing here too, but I work in the dungeon far away from windows. Aliens could land and I'd be clueless about it.

Okay, to make this post relevant...

I feel as cold as a corpse if I don't bundle up and "modern art" is a middle finger to the face of REAL artists who know perspective, compostion, color, emotive response etc. The dumb fucks who pay exorbitant prices for paint blobs get what they deserve. CRAP on a platter er canvas.
