OT - Rev on TV Sunday
NOT BASEBALL RELATED
In my day job as an art critic I was interviewed for a documentary that premieres Sunday night at 7 PM and repeated at 10 PM.
World Premiere of the Ovation TV original documentary Jeff Koons: Beyond Heaven
Ovation TV is available on DirecTV (channel 274), Dish Network (channel 157) and on cable and telco systems in major markets across the country
As part of its month-long programming event, "American Revolutionaries," saluting American artists who have changed the world through their art, Ovation TV is featuring an exclusive, original documentary exploring the life and work of fine artist and true American Revolutionary Jeff Koons. This in-depth documentary reviews his years of celebrated, and sometimes controversial creations, provides a rare and personal tour of his studio and looks at his most recent museum installation in at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago. In addition to interviews with Mr. Koons, the documentary also includes interviews with:
Gary Tinterow, The Metropolitan Museum of Art;
Francesco Bonami, MOCA, Chicago;
Michael Govan, Director LACMA
Mat Gleason, author and art critic AKA REV HALOFAN
R.C. Baker, Village Voice
Amy Cappallazzo, Deputy Chairman, Christie's

I met him once.
He’s not as good-looking as his pictures would suggest.

What happened to Art or Not?
My friends used to watch that show and couldn’t believe I knew the crazy dude.

I think it was a one-time thing … it seemed to me to have series potential written all over it.

SK8 did a mural on the outside of a bar downtown that I used to manage (Al’s Bar). O course it was painted over …

Sk8 meant A Lot to a lot of people. He was our West Coast Pioneer in many ways.

That's a relief. +1 in cred for you in my book.
Pretty much every time I see a Koons work, my initial reaction is “Why?”
Which is, pretty much, the strongest refutation of an artist I can muster.
Happy Birthday ladybug!!!

Hey Rev...I think this is really cool. I like to think of myself as an art fan, although I don't really invest as much time as I should. I am going to try to watch this for sure.
That being said, hopefully I can find it on my cable package. I have Time/Warner…i’m looking it up right now.
Dude…you’re an art critic and run an Angels blog….also, I remember seeing a pic of your old lady that involved bondage in a bookstore….she was a 10. Do you ever just sit back in the barcalounger and say “My life rules.”? if not, do so now!
Whatever dude.

Do you, like me, have this entire circle of artsy friends that don’t understand this whole baseball thing?

It was good, but it jumped back and forth between interviews too much and too fast.
It was hard to digest the points and opinions each person was trying to make before they jumped to the next one. It was too much Mtv and not enough Charlie Rose.
I’ve never seen an in person interview with Koons before. I was really surprised how Mr. Rodgers, from Mr. Rogers Neighborhood he looked and acted. It’s amazing to think of the money it takes to hire all those people to work for him and the shear expense required to fabricate those pieces. Quite an operation/racket.

I couldn't find it on Time Warner
I imagine it will eventually be on You Tube or Ovation tv. com
lol @ Mr. Rodgers. So True! (Split-Rocker)
