In Short Jabs to the Head, the jabs are my words (each 1000, more or less) after being rope-a-doped on the Internet, and now aimed at your head, hoping to make an impact. I don't expect a knock-out every time-but I'm hoping Left Hooks, are essays and stories of the leftward persuasion, hoping to achieve the same objective.Short Jabs to the Head should give you detailed close-ups of various aspects of the Bush Administration, like looking through someone's photo album who lived it.No Storm Troopers here, no Gestapo, no Sturm und Drang.In America, fascism creeps in on little cats' feet.But bit by bit Constitutional guarantees are erased by our sterling leader and his immoral shysters, more and more of them in secret signings under the claimed cover of National Security.And every day more government malfeasance is revealed (albeit reluctantly) by the timid media, Congressional investigations blocked with no or little outcry. How much longer can we stand it?This White House doesn't give a damn about written law. No, they just make their own, just as they claim to make their own reality.Worried? You damn well should be.

Madison Museum of Contemporary Art

Return to Function surveys contemporary artists who make functional objects that verge on "the designed"--from vehicles to clothes to mobile studio units--which happily confirm that the once-firm line between fine art and the applied arts is indeed dissolving. These artists--Jules De Balincourt, Claire Fontaine, François Curlet, Fabrice Hyber, J. Morgan Puett, Michael Rakowitz, Joe Scanlan, Franck Scurti, Ricardo Miranda Zúñiga and others--make objects that are simultaneously critical and practical. By choosing to create objects that meet utilitarian criteria, they show that artworks can be a part of the larger social, political and economic fabric. This volume features an in-depth discussion of seminal artists working in this vein, including Lucy Orta, Andrea Zittel and Jorge Pardo.
