it'll hurt .I'll bleed. badly. scars? for life perhaps? need I feel everything so bodily, inside me? Angela Ellsworth's installation at the MCA: pearl pin bonnets: I watch on in silence: imaginary blood trickling down my face : Louise Bourgeois' bronze sweaters and red ink drawings, a vase with a dead bouquet of flowers inside it, stands lonely near her works.Christian Jankowski, Bill Viola, Biennale ferry to the Cockatoo Island, a former convict site. Oh Australia. I have never seen your convict sites. I want to learn. I am thirsty for your true dark veiled history, my adopted one. Russian aes+f group, Love it. A Requiem for Capitalism in digital format and 9 channel circular installation, Happiness Island is being built as we speak: yes, it is actually happening to all of us: enslaved hanged convict piano, bringing culture?, cars under the ceilings, fireworks fireworks, tin roofs of the poor, see? Deeper and faster I sink into fearful contemplation: the world is f.u.c.k.e.d.....Yvonne Todd's uncanny fake-toothy staged photo-performances, Yayoi Kusama singing her sad song on video, surrounded by mirrored dots and obsessions, she sings about antidepressants and greatness? fresh ocean air fills my lungs. Pier 2/3: Paul McCarthy's Ship of Fools is going nowhere and is adrift in the fatty over-consumption of empty idolisation of our age: hooray hooray hooray, Thank you Paul. We are: mentally ill-advised, deadly and overpriced. Welcome to here. Acrylic white paint on Aboriginal skin. Take a picture, take a picture: Just for you, Darling....
