Artist List 01 Couple of nights ago I watched High Fidelity. Here's a quote:

It's not so much what people ARE like, it's what they like that's important.
Books, movies, tv -- these things matter! Call me shallow!

Couple of weeks ago, I made the mistake of agreeing that yes, I like Tracey Emin. But I was tricked into it! 'You like Tracey Emin, right?' was the question. 'Yes' was my beer-n-weed induced answer. It was Moffat that I was thinking of! Moffat! It's Tracey Moffat!

This is Tracy Emin

In the spirit of Christmas I am making a list. Something about the end-of-year blues that only be eliviated by the complete comfort of compulsive list-making. You can check it twice. Tracey Emin is not on the list. The first one on the list this guy:

Kcho, or Alex Leyva Macado. A Cuban artist living and working in Havana (b.1970). Personal friend of Fidel Castro. Uses books, glass bottles, wooden boats. Builds piers in galleries. Makes drawings. Looks like Fidel Castro, or a member of Al-Queda.
