A filter system for online dating

December 20, 2012 by Jeanette Joy Harris

My friend Shannon Tipton had her essay “A Filter System for Online Dating” posted on shaunaglenn.com. Here is the intro: “I’m 49 years old and a single mom with two kids and a full-time job.  I’ve been trying to find a good guy out there to date (my age or a little older) but I keep running into problems I didn’t see coming.  You see, there doesn’t seem to be that many good guys left in the cyber dating world.  […]

Owlcat featured artist: John Calabrese

December 14, 2012 by Jeanette Joy Harris

  As most of y’all know, I have accepted a position at Owlcat Press as Art Editor and Director so you will be seeing lots of Owlcat content migrating to this site. The lovely and talented Jessica Browdy will be working with me as an editor, as well, and we make a fantastic team because we can endure infinite art fairs and foreign train stations together. Part of our strategy is a regular content area that features artists – giving […]

Bomb Shelter Museum

Wynwood.. Friday Night.. Miami Art Week

December 7, 2012 by Jeanette Joy Harris

In addition to the fairs going on at the Beach, Wynwood, Miami’s art scene, has a ton of galleries and alternative art going on until the wee hours of the morning. Here are some things we saw around 11 pm tonight. A small yarn doll hanging from a random tree whose tag claims he was murdered. At first you might think this is a pawn shop sign, but look again. Bomb Shelter Museum was unexpected and cool. An in-between-place where […]

Not sure where you should go tonight: Ask Gypsy!

December 7, 2012 by Jeanette Joy Harris

Have a secret desire? Want to know whether it will come true? Ask Gypsy! As JB, LS, and I were strolling down Collins Avenue last night, post-Verge show, we saw a scary creature erupting out of Lords Hotel (at 11th Street). BOFFO (a NYC non-profit) and Perrier partnered with Lords South Beach and Desi Santiago to create “The Black Lords,” a public art installation that allows participants to ask the multi-story, inflatable gypsy their deepest desire. My lovely friend LS […]

Verge Art Fair, Miami Beach (2012)

December 7, 2012 by Jeanette Joy Harris

Essex Hotel has been taken over by Verge Art Fair this weekend, and the opening party was a blast. Hotel rooms on the mezzanine and second floor were rented out by artists and collectives (with a competition on who landed the most visible spot) while guests buzzed from room to room to see works from artists from all over the world. Verge focuses on lesser known artists, most of which are quite young and enthusiastic. Pieces ranged from canvas to […]
