mark just posted this show to his photo file on the abaton fb web page. i recall they are mostly oil and wax on canvas.

the model artists are using for web presence is based on bands or performers (and other cottage professionals) use of myspace. i personally dont require the gif option which harkens back to message board avatar identities. in my drag to desktop world jpegs are just fine as a universal format. once anyone has uploaded any image to the net they no longer control it. if its an attribution issue then the publishing party should watermark it or embed it with pertinent text.

The top of the (now way top heavy) art-world has never really embraced transparency and the artists in vogue during the (blog era) 00's boom seemed reluctant to rock the boat with substantive opinions. im enjoying the shift from status quo ive noticed since the crash, creepy saltz factor notwithstanding.

every one is going to have their peeves though, i personally have no use for twitter.
