I want to be like Tim Burton one day...

Emo kids and Goths aren't the only ones in love with dark humor and horrifically beautiful animation thanks Tim Burton.This guy has to have the best dreams ever because his art is crazy! His Studio films with their independent vibes make me ALMOST not hate commercialized media. Never before has morbid looked so good... Here's a montage of all his work.



After all who doesn't love a good montage?




With wife and female co-star of most of his movies, his very own Corpse Bride Helena Bonham Carter(Fight Club) by his side, I believe his artistic visions will give me great reason's time and time again to actually pick up my remote and turn to something other than Sundance or IFC or force myself inside a theater.

Here's some classic Chuck.

Kehinde Wiley

There is a Current pod about my man Kehinde, you should check it out. He juxtaposes past to present, blacks with whites, high society and low brow for an effect that is truly like no other y'all.








"RECOGNIZE! Hip Hop and Contemporary Portraiture," opens at the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution on February 8, 2008, and runs through October 26, 2008.

Will be there soon, look out for pics, and if you are in the area, come support true art.
