He subsequently landed himself and his issues on the front page of the Big Bend Sentinel Newspaper. I am happy to announce that The Open House is no more. The old format has been scrapped in favor of a more intimate gathering that pays due respect to the Actual Artworks...Hipsters go back to Austin, the "Spectacle" is over and Donald Judd can rest in Peace finally.<br /><br />~Kicball Jesus<br />June 1st, 2008</span></span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.chinati.org/visit/openhouse.php">http://www.chinati.org/visit/openhouse.php</a>Kickball Jesushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16855297594091173825kickball.jesus@gmail.com
