Il Cimitero della Ragione, the build up to the opening AND the opening: Mega-Post.
Breakfast of Skateboarders.
Posters around town...
Once again, everyone else making "my art" but me...
Deanna,
Biancone, and Vincenzo painting it black.
The museum desk...
Hanging the bubble.
Making the bubble meander...
On Gaurd!
Finally nailed it.
The finished installation.
Looks like someone is bootlegging Toy Machine in Italy. Our bloodsucking lawyers are all over it. The day of the opening there will be a skate jam for the community.
"Hey, what's it like being the New Warhol?"
Deanna 'posed' me for a portrait. What an honor being
shot by the master.
Deanna shot me
shredding the ramp. But someone else got a better shot of my
'stunt,' a taildrop from the gaurd rail.
Creating new Loyal Pawns in Sardegna. This guy is the one who let me borrow his board.
Did some 'street art' on someone's van.
The girls look very cute today, especially Deanna.
These guys hooked me up. Vincenzo and Biancone.
Getting gas might be worth a digital photo, no?
The elevator has a DVD screen and we are showing the sketchbook video Kevin and I made.
More of an elevator shot...
The text in Italiano.
Kids hiding out.
The skateboard-check.
The opening was going off. Free booze and a DJ outside. Inside, people and stuff to look at.
Even young kids were getting amongst the artwork.
The Timster and the Tempster.
The aforementioned DJ...
Not neglecting the Sock-Team. Sect-sock makes a grand appearance at the opening.
The general atmosphere was happy.
Elke attacked Deanna.
Signing a book for a kid's aunt.
The top floor.
The Emerica/Cemetery of Reason shirts were a hit with the skaters of Nuoro.
