This video by Tokyo writer/editor Jean Snow dispenses with the former, presenting the uncut fantasy with peotic results.

Photo’s from the installations of Momo Kawakami’s Tento Exhibition which launched earlier this month at Umu in Roppongi Hills Tokyo.

The artists created 3 tent installations for the show,  so she could have the oportunity to sleep in them while also sharing her dreams with her audience.

Displayed at the mesuem of Frankfurt. Don’t even bother checking the link its about as boring as a site can get. Heres  monkey washing a cat, way more interesting.

There is nothing better than watching right wing journos making tremendous fools of themselves.

Just goes to show that you can get political through art without reverting into a self righteous pussy hippy clutching a folder full of George Bush stencils. Saber rules.
