Philadelphia-based artist, painter, photographer and stand-up comedian Andrew Jeffrey Wright just closed a wonderful exhibit at Domy Books Austin. Last night I watched his dvd of "art jokes" and I can honestly say it's the first time I've laughed that kind of delighted, involuntary laughter in a while. Which was sorely needed. However, no one is laughing about this:
Read (via The Art Collectors) about the blatant, unauthorized, uncredited and unpaid-for use of Andrew's work as a dress for teen catalog Delia's and weep for humanity. Or, actually do something about it on his behalf. What in the wild world of sports is wrong with people?Andrew Jeffrey Wright's website
