Berkeley Arts Today




From the razor-edged fine art
to vernacular forms,
Berkeley leads the art rat pack





Whichever way you tastes lean




Live in California long enough
and you may find yourself
in a few Mexican films noir




Abstract quilt
at the public library



Blue screen effect



 Dennis Hopper
Sat next to him in temple
Allen Ginsberg memorial
 in San Francisco,
Where's Bruce Conner 
he asked me





Utility box green-wash



Falling staple
in birch wood



Appropriation
in film arts



The world is so
if you know
where to look


The Period Approach Movement
Berkeley has long been
a center for early music







Traditional arts
exhibited
all over town





Oil painting
of an eastern-European
Jewish wedding



Well, it's not
the ten commandments,
Side walk guerilla frieze






Don't forget
to boycott, divest and sanction
to end the military occupation
of Palestine



Another American Civil War?
Troglodytes may love to fight
But we don't let go of
freedom

Drive-By Mania




1.
On Broadway

The 51 runs right by my baby's door












 


 The driver is captain of the ship,
He steers through the hazards






 Art Deco masterworks













 A new place to be



 So that's why Jessus
is looking so buff lately




 Always plenty of traffic
on Automobile Row



 The place on the corner
is a cafe where
they let cats
walk all over you



 Former domain
of the American
Automobile Industry



 Cars are a good way
to end up in the...



 Hospital




 Hospital

Another good way
to get a room there
is to eat at 

 A Butchery Restaurant


They slaughter the animal
right at your table





  Hollywood high

 2.
I'm going to oogle-map
the entire #12 bus route
 You leave the inner city
for the high streets
of Piedmont



My favorite tuxedo shop
they have a great selection
of colors
