BACK TO THE FUTURE'S 25th ANNIV.
7-3-10 POST KEYWORDS: back to the future, marathon, anniversary, biff, thomas f. wilson, my week with biff, thomas wilson, delorean, art sucks, cojo art juggernaut, artsucks.com, cojo

I guess this story could be seen as sort of embarrassing. About a year ago I re-watched BTTF II on cable (even though I own the box set) and realized that it came out in 1985 and that we were very near the 25 year mark. I checked IMDB and discovered that Back To The Future was turning 25 in just a few short months (Part 1 was released to theaters July 3rd 1985), so decided that I wanted to do something special for it. By something special I mean, I wanted to meet Biff . . .<< CONTINUE READING / POST COMMENTS AFTER THE JUMP

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY FROM ART SUCKS
7-4-10 POST KEYWORDS: fireworks, fourth of july, independence day, thomas dougherty, chris caruso, molly roberson, art sucks, cojo art juggernaut, artsucks.com, cojo

First I have to thank photographer Thomas J. Dougherty for the great shots in this article. Molly and I played it low key this year for the fourth. Inspired by our stop at South Of The Border in June we decided to skip the usual passive NYC rooftop party / fireworks viewing from the sidelines for some good ol' fashion do it yourself blow yer hand off American fun.

Before you 1984 narcs out there start ratting me out to the cops. . .

ST. AUGUSTINE'S ART SCENE
6-24-10 POST KEYWORDS: st augustine, florida, art, art crawl, art galleries, rembrandtz, butterfield garage, butterfield too, absolute americana, rev art shop, worley faver pottery studio, p.a.st.a fine art, st augustine art association, metalartz, mullet beach gallery, st augustine gallery, cojo art juggernaut, artsucks.com, cojo

St. Augustine, Florida is the oldest city in America, so it could beg the question; is the art scene similarly ancient. . . or is it state of the art? Pictured above is the interior of the Absolute Americana Art Gallery, which was my favorite stop in our one day art crawl around St. Augustine Florida's Historic District. Albeit it was founded by the owner of Absolut Vodka, I'll get more into the details of that gallery later on but first I would like to start with some of the other galleries we had the fortune - and in some cases misfortune to visit earlier on.. . .<< CONTINUE READING / POST COMMENTS AFTER THE JUMP

After a hard day of art crawling the streets of St. Augustine, Florida, Molly and I were hungry so we started off with pizza and beer at Pizza Alley on St. George Street. They have a great deal where if you buy one slice of pizza you get two free beers, or something like that. . .<< CONTINUE READING / POST COMMENTS AFTER THE JUMP

This blog rarely highlights architecture because I am not schooled in it and couldn't tell you the difference between a portico and a flying buttress. I do however have a good eye for composition, so I decided while playing tourist to photograph any interesting buildings I happened to pass by while touring the historic city.. . .<< CONTINUE READING / POST COMMENTS AFTER THE JUMP

Driving route 95 South on the East coast it's impossible to miss the signs for South of The Border. It's even more impossible not to stop there. If not for the fireworks and ice cream, then for some of the best in kitschy (borderline racist) sculptures and signage you would ever want to stumble across. . .<< CONTINUE READING / POST COMMENTS AFTER THE JUMP
