JAY KAPLAN’S ART AT SECRET PROJECT ROBOT

On a magical night in 1970, Dock Ellis of the Pittsburgh Pirates threw a no-hitter against the San Diego Padres while trippin’ balls. (He thought he had the night off so he dropped a bunch of acid earlier that day, then got the call. Brain faht!) On a magical night in 1991, under similar conditions, I climbed so fuggin’ high up a tree that it took me six hours and three cries to get down. Guess which one of us inspired Jay Kaplan’s eye-popping new series of resin paintings.

The show runs from June 28 to July 24 at Secret Project Robot in Williamsburg (210 Kent Ave.). It’s called “Ellis, D.” Get it? Jay’s work is mind-blowing in person but you can also admire it online.

This is just as ridiculous as Beyoncé doing shampoo ads for “blondes.”

When I’m mayor, brass knuckles will no longer be illegal but short hair and flats will.

STREET CARNAGE is mostly a website that features street fashion critiques called STREET BONERS and compilations of bad television called TV CARNAGE. The site also has a blog, a radio show, and regularly features video shorts made by Gavin and Derrick.

STREET CARNAGE is also a live presentation you can have in your town where Gavin shows a Street Boners "Best Of" and Derrick shows his latest TV Carnage endeavors.

STREET BONERS will eventually be compiled into a huge book which will feature hundreds of pages of Boners as well as contributions from Chloe Sevigny, Debbie Harry, Fred Armisen, Tim & Eric and many more.

Derrick makes videos for various bands as well as his own movies. His most recent project is called "Cop Movie" and is comprised of about three dozen different cop movies and he also has a workout video coming out that is made up of a million disgusting workout tapes. Gavin does freelance writing for TV, film and magazines and they both do funny acting stuff as well as other hilarious video shit we'll tell you about later. They are both dicks.
