October 2002 : Mini-Pizza at Ray's...


Before Ray sold the Belgian fries that are so popular today at his candy store he made a brief attempt to sell a peculiar small mini-pizza . The pizza which never sold well , most often sat rotating in the display case turning an un-appealing brown color.
It was though only a dollar a slice . When a slice had turned really , really brown , it could be had for even less .

The New "New Museum" on the Bowery ...






With all the architectural finesse of an industrial warehouse with some peculiar detail including heavy-duty expanded metal screen covering the entire building ...including the high-up windows ( will an angry rabble really hurl rocks and bottles that high ?) ... the new " New Museum" is now a major Bowery sideshow .
With 3 floors of galleries , a theater below grade , some administrative areas , and a mixed-use ground floor all manner of contempoary art is on display . While flat-panel monitor displays , constructions of all sorts and drawn and painted things might befuddle some attending , a resource center and an in-museum book-store provide a possible path for anyone interested to an enlightened understanding of contemporary art confabulations .
With faith and hard work there is the possibility of "coming to know" for the uninitiated . Indeed if one choses to devote a few days to study in the downtown contemporary art scene there is right next door to the museum ( for the time-being at least ) the Sunshine Hotel where one can take residence and every day continue late into the night with one's aesthetic lucubrations .
