Mr. Arjona will also be presenting his latest collections of “ICONS” titled AT PLAY where the artist reveals through out a series of twenty one water color drawings all about his experiences in the fashion district working and creating next to a music recording studio, painting along with the melody of rock and roll. â?o This is where I'm at today; NICOLAS AT PLAY.â??

” As people say there are no random happenings and there are random happenings, hence, a series of artistic performances and presentations are titled Rated R for Random.

I'm excited about the paintings and artistry of Agni Zotis, her passionate philosophical life statements, her outrageous aesthetic senses and her unique persona of a great hostess. The AGNI Gallery is among one of the best enthusiastic art scenes in happenings of downtown New York today. It is a great honor and pleasure to participate”. – From: cypriajolie@aol.com

exhibition!

Thursday night opens the "rated R for RandOm" exhibition, where vagina vérité™ will be exhibited for the first time in book form!

That means putting the v-portraits in page-order...haven't considered that up to now. I don't think that people open books of photographs to the first page necessarily, but still, at some point, the first page will be checked out as the first page, and I don't know what to do about the project eschewing order in terms of hierarchy–and a book being linear and so, having an order that could be interpreted as hierarchy...hmmm. All I can say at this point is hmmm, until I try it out.

The salons have been going well [meaning lively conversation, lots of questions and sharing of experiences; interest in the book]–a good time had by all. The next one is for women and men on designer vaginas.

Spending hours revising vaginaverite.com to use the book-cover logo [waiting on trademark registration to come through]. Really must find someone to, or learn how to, automate questionnaire-response posting. The architecture of the site is a sloppy mess.

It's all about the details of the work today. Task completion. Where will I get a pedestal for the book?

re-entering vv-world

My hiatus from work on vagina vérité™ is finally over. To plunge back in, and try something new, here goes on blogging.

It's definitely time to exhibit the v-portraits again, get the word out, keep the conversation expanding...make my way to publishing the book.

How many more do you need in order to publish?

Always the question, last night again. I do have a number, a range, in mind. Not that there's ever going to be a representative set of the unique...I'm figuring somewhere between 80-100. In any case, it will be wherever it lands so that the v-wall comes comfortably represents the full spectrum of our skincolor, which it currently doesn't.

Where can I exhibit?
