Read-Only-Memory
Organized by Stamatina Gregory
January 8 - February 13, 2010
Opens January 8 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Read-Only-Memory brings together works by Anthony Campuzano, Graham Dolphin, and Molly Larkey, all of which incorporate acts of analogue transcription. Characterized by the meticulous, almost devotional labor of recreating found, journalistic, pop, or literary texts, these works stand as extreme acts of obsolete protocol, investigating the lapses of time and information between reading, writing, and reception.

Independent curator Stamatina Gregory recently completed the Whitney Lauder Curatorial Fellowship at the ICA in Philadelphia and curated a large group exhibition of contemporary photography at the FLAG Art Foundation. She is also a doctoral candidate at The Graduate Center at the City University of New York.

The Curatorial Research Lab is a project space within

Shane Macgowan's new teeth

I guess I missed this story a few months ago, but...
Apparently Shane Macgowan has replaced his bloody nubs with a new set of choppers.
Looks bizarre, but anything is better than what he had going on, for christssake.
The first pic is from the Frank Skinner show in 2004 when he tried on dentures on air for a laugh:





Which inspired him to get permanent ones eventually in 2009. This is supposed to be a pic of the new ones, although it looks somewhat suspicious like it's photoshopped, but there it is.
