Hi Readers,
It looks like I have forgotten you.

I'm putting my online efforts at fineart.about.com, so please stop by and take a look.

Roberta Smith on Jeff Koons' art of simulated sex

Roberta Smith's biting, emasculating, but insightful take on Jeff Koons art of simulated sex with Cicciolina contains great gems such as:
