This story goes exactly where you think it would - a guy named Mr. Frip, clowns, aggressive literature, and the movie New Jack City. We also meet the original gangster, Gertrude Stein, who joins the tertulia and handles some business. I try to figure out how art is sold and the status of Western art at the turn of the century, which includes a donkey named Lolo and an unnamed monkey.
There’s a number of ways Picasso could have been terrible to women. But life is short, why choose just one? We also explore the colonization and cultural appropriation of French Polynesia! How else would an artist find inspiration? Duh. Escape your art studio/makeshift prison and come join the story!
