Opening Night At The Circus: Highlights Reel One


The best conversation I had all night was with the dude from the National Portrait Gallery(we'd met at an earlier opening at the gallery):



Me: "Hey! Howsit going?"
National Portrait Guy: "Oh, not bad. I'm working at the National Portrait Gallery."
Me: "Dammit... I mean, these are all totally portraits, hey?"
NPG: "Yeah like that 'She's Imaginative' one...."
Me: "Yeah I'll totally show you a picture of that girl...Well I guess I'm not a very GOOD portrait painter."
NPG: "Well, Steven Harper and all his cuts means I don't know what's happening"
Me: "Shitty. So does that mean you're like a teenage girls who has been given a week to live and wants to do all kinds of BAAAAAD stuff. Cuz I'll give you a deal on buying the whole fucking show right now! That'll show him."
NPG: "hahahahaha. Actually they froze my budget"
Me: "Your name is Craig, right?"
NPG: "No, Chris...."
Me: "Shit I gotta get a drink"

From Studio to Gallery In 3 Days Flat

Eyebrows plucked.
Monkey hair trimmed.
Suits neatly packed.
Ties carefully selected.
Dealt with how to refer to my academic education in the press release for the show. "Studied painting at ACAD...."
Last trip to the studio to hold me over until Monday.
I leave for Ottawa tomorrow, for the opening of my show on Saturday.
