      bruce nauman carousel 1988. saw this at the 95 moma retrospective that changed my life. i believe it resides in holland. looking at this image today, i saw why i'm obsessed w poell. </p>

      with the motor on, it slowly rotates dragging the taxidermied animal bodies, there is a slow creek that goes around for a duration. a small leg of an animal leaves a trace behind. its the darkest piece i've ever seen. </p>

        the setting for the work in that particular photograph is also especially powerful, far more so than a vanilla box space would be. and poell, yes, absolutely, even down to the color scheme.

          i saw it too. do you remember the clown on the looping video?</p>

          i thought the animals noses were made of graphite in order to create the sqeaking sound it made? </p>

                        In what respect? Kind of a very open question, no?

                            i like him. i dont always like everything that he does, nor do i understand it all. but the 1st act of the opera Ren that i saw this past may was pretty spectacular.

                              have only seen part 1 and 2 of Cremaster 3, haven't had time to see the other ones. in the movies he has a visual language that I really appreciate. but I can't say that I'm totally down in the whole mason-thing and knows what everything is about.

                              but I've also seen a documentary where he shows the props from the movies in guggenheim, and most of the things you see are very well done sculptures, and is of course amazing!

                                I saw Drawing Restraint 9 at the IFC center. Beautiful, but damn I wished I had done one or more letters of the alphabet before entering the theater!
