Eyewitness Account of Barney/Peyton Collaboration “Blood of Two”

OK, so I’ve been reading this list of rules for bloggers that Kathryn pointed to recently. (I guess they’re actually supposed to be ethical guidelines, but given my Catholic/Jewish background I tend to think of such things as straight-up RULES Thou Shalt Not Break). One particular ethical guideline/Rule says that bloggers should link to other sites to provide a proper frame of reference for their own work. Another one says that if a blogger covers a story or issue they are supposed to continue pursuing it rather than just letting it go.

So, in the interest of being fair, providing multiple takes on the issue, doggedly pursuing my stupid obsession du jour, etc. etc. Regarding the “Blood of Two” installation by Matthew Barney and Elizabeth Peyton that I posted about last week: I just came across a link I should share with you all, a post on C-monster.net written by Sebastian Puig who was ACTUALLY IN HYDRA not just snarking about it jealously from afar like I was. Here’s his dispatch on the event. The post contains lots of great pictures as well.

Just get a load of that table.
