We started getting the nytimes everyday. We usually get just the sunday (Florida) edition. It think it is free for a few months. I think the subscription is actually sponsored by someone/some company. And so, the nytimes gives us a free paper, but they somehow count it toward their subscription numbers. Anyway, we did this before a couple years. The only problem is that we end up with a lot of newspaper in and around the house. The nice thing is, of course, lots of good reading. Here are few images that I have scanned from this week pile of of paper. I think I’ll continue to add some scanned images every now and then.

The article profiled Jenny Holzer and spoke of her methods, her reading and her approach to the task of commemorating September 11. I especially like the fact some reading were of documents made avaliable through the Freedom of Information Act.

I am a fan of Ruscha.

I am a fan of the stage, especially scene and lighting design. I wish that we had the resources, so that we can attend plays, operas and dance concerts. But more importantly, I hope that our new Performing Art Center will be the venue for such good stage works. I attended a couple of operas by the Florida Grand Opera, at their current Dade County Auditorium location. And I remember being bored by the design and the mise en scene. I wish that the FGO will retire its old painted props, its uninspired costume and pasty make-up and entice us all to its operas with beautiful music and a lovely stage works.

This is supposed to be backstage at a fashion show. Apparently, everything goes. As long as, there are no pictures. The article is about Kate Moss’s woes. I really like the hair and the martini. I suspect that this image might be slighty staged.
