COOL Brooklyn ARTIST ALERT: Linda Zacks


Linda Zacks' work is self-described as "part poetry, part paint, part zip and zoom." Once the Design Director at VH1, this local artist now works solo, creating mixed media work for big-name clients like Sony, Newport Beach Film Festival and INQ Mobile, just to name a few. Her work is bold and beautiful, and manages to look both haphazard and deliberate at the same time.

CREEP CENTRAL: ANDY WARHOL AT THE BK MUSEUM

Okay, okay.  Am I the only one who finds Andy Warhol totally creepy?  The high voice, the fact that he looked like a cross between Skeletor and the guy from Tales From the Crypt

I get that his contributions to art were important (viva la soup can!), but goddamn! Creepy!

Regardless of my opinions, the Brooklyn Museum has a show on him running from now until September, showing 50 of his works from the last decade of his life.  It's called "Andy Warhol: The Last Decade."  

Who's gone?  Who's going?
