    Two slightly' out there ' news items

    1.
    Magic Ink, by artist Gianni Motti, is one of the main attractions at Londons Hayward Gallery. The public are being charged 8 GBP [$ 12.50 ] to see it. Called Invisible Art, about the unseen, the exhibition consists of 6 empty frames, hung on the Gallery wall. Visitors are asked to see beyond " material objects" & " set their imaginations on fire" by looking at the empty gallery spaces. But wait, theres more, , included in the 50 " invisible works " is an empty piece of paper, an empty canvas, and an empty space. And more, another highlight is Andy Warhols invisible sculpture , from 1985, which consists of an empty plinth on which he had once briefly stepped !! Breathtaking stuff.

    On a different note, a Florida tour boat captain has had his hand bitten off while feeding marshmellows to an alligator to entertain his passengers.The gator was killed, & hand retrieved, but could not be sewn back.The punchline? The skipper faces a fine of $ US 500 because feeding gators is an offence. boom, boom. Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    1. I love art and painting myself but The public are being well and truly conned and should be asking for refunds. Apparently every manor gallery has a white canvas and a black canvas that could be painted by anyone who possesses a hand and a brush but is painted by a well known artist who got away with stealing a bucket load of money from the public coffers for the honour of producing said art.
    2. As they say in the entertainment business "never work with children or animals"

    Obviously, if you can't see the images you are a philistine — or does the first story remind you of the Emperor's new clothes?
