"Chocolate-Bourbon Cake Rich and fudgy, with an intense chocolate flavor, this cake gets its incredibly moist texture from frequent basting with coffee-bourbon syrup during baking. A grown-up dessert with a delightfully boozy kick, serve slender slices with a dollop of homemade whipped cream. Recipe: http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes..." - RAPatton

"In 2008, Murakami was named by Time magazine as one of the year's 100 most influential people, the only visual artist on the list. Perhaps the defining message of his work is that high art, low art, pop art and any other art, are all just art. Like Warhol, he uses images from popular culture and sells them to collectors. Unlike Warhol, he also sells his work in more accessible markets - on t-shirts, posters and even mobile phone accessories. When asked if he straddled different spheres of art and business, he said: "Japanese people accept that art and commerce will be blended; and in fact, they are surprised by the rigid and pretentious Western hierarchy of ‘high art.’ In the West, it certainly is dangerous to blend the two because people will throw all sorts of stones. But that's okay—I’m ready with my hard hat."" - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

"The Norwegian architects of Fantastic Norway have recently designed the architectural framework for an exhibition in Oslo, displaying young Norwegian design talents. The exhibition open this week end. The installation resembles a large pixilated cloud, constructed by more than 3000 hanging cardboard boxes. The architects´statement: ‘Being that the exhibition is set to present brand new design objects, we decided to base the architectural concept on the thrill of unpacking. The installation consists of over 3000 hanging cardboard boxes resembling a large pixilated cloud, hovering over the exhibited material. The construction creates a large variety of spaces, from cave like to lifted and open areas, inside the 350m2 exhibition hall. The objects and design concepts are exhibited both inside and outside the boxes. In an environmental perspective the ambition was to create an exhibition with focus on reuse and low material cost. The cardboard boxes will be recycled at the end of the exhibition, which only leaves wires as leftovers.’" - Cee Bee from Bookmarklet

"Let’s face it, the phrase “it’s nice and colourful” can often come in handy. It brings us back down to the lowest common denominator of art. You can apply it to anything from primary school messes to peerless Old Masters, and it can prove terribly useful for all those modern abstracts. You may not have a clue what you are supposed to be thinking but at least you get back to basics. You can start by responding to the colour. Surely, colour means something to all of us. Or does it? A new exhibition at Tate Liverpool sets out to challenge such preconceptions and put traditions to the test. Colour Chart: Reinventing Colour, 1950 to Today, which opens next week, brings together works by some 40 Post-Modern pioneers — ranging from Ellsworth Kelly and Andy Warhol to Richard Serra and Damien Hirst — and chronicles a fundamental shift in attitudes that has taken place over the past 50 years. Colour, to these artists, is not a vehicle for mood or emotion. It does not evoke feelings or frames of mind. It is not a conveyor of metaphysical meaning. It is simply a matter-of-fact element of the work." - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

"John Keats famously accused Isaac Newton of unweaving the rainbow. But he was not necessarily right. Newton’s factual explanations showed us a new way of looking at universal wonders. Science reveals new facets of the shimmering prism. Can the artists in this show do the same for colour? They certainly explore a lot of alternatives. Colour escapes from the strictures of traditional... more... - RAPatton

"According to NASA, the three astronauts in the International Space Station have been chilling out watching J.J. Abrams' Star Trek. Watching the Enterprise in the ISS, people. It doesn't get any better than this: They just ended their crew day, so they're watching it now, or just finishing it up. They can go all day without seeing each other, so this is a good chance to get together." - Helen Sventitsky from Bookmarklet

A lot has changed in the LA underground art world in the last five years. While a frighteningly huge array of marginal painters popped up during the unprecedented art boom of recent times, the rather small contingent of the town’s heavyweight talent scaled back, seemingly hiding out until either the false-as-fake-tits art bubble burst or the scene purged itself of wannabe “street artists” and “lowbrow” rejects, or both. Luckily, we’re in the process of seeing that last option coming into play and the timing for the re-emergence of one of Hollywood’s foremost painters in the form of one Mr. TODD SCHORR couldn’t be more welcome. Unveiling “The World We Live In,” a small collection of staggering large-scale new works at MERRY KARNOWSKY GALLERY last weekend, Todd left hanging the collective jaws of his legion of loyal fans that have been wondering where exactly he’s been all this time. - Cee Bee

While the Chinese modern art market of recent years with its fast rising cult-of-personality art stars was ultimately born to fail—and with the recent economic meltdown, fail it has—the shining light of the red country’s art world continues to glow in the form of CAI GUO-QIANG. Drawing freely from ancient mythology, military history, Taoist cosmology, extraterrestrial observations, Maoist revolutionary tactics, Buddhist philosophy, gunpowder-related technology, Chinese medicine, and methods of terrorist violence, Cai’s art is a form of social energy, constantly mutable, linking what he refers to as “the seen and unseen worlds.” His newly unveiled retrospective, “I Want to Believe,” at the GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM, Bilbao (the second stop on a global tour that began in 2008 at the Guggenheim NYC), presents the full spectrum of the artist’s protean, multimedia art in all its conceptual complexity. - Cee Bee

"I’ve been watching Jessica Doyle’s online art career now for quite some time. When she sent me a bucketful of stuff in the mail, I was so excited and surprised when I tore open the package. I’ve been eying her beachy urchin print now for quite some time, and I’m honored to own it along with its companions. I plan to put them in my bedroom in my mom’s beach house." - Nurse Katie from Bookmarklet
