When are the Star tree huggers going to get that it is time to move on?
ReplyDeleteI guess Hoops will be the last person laid off there.
ReplyDeleteHoops will make an outstanding art critic.
ReplyDeleteAs long as all the art is either black or white, she'll do fine.
Yael T Abouhalkah has outlasted another staffer. What say ye, Yael T Abouhalkah? Oops, I will supply the answer for you :(
ReplyDeleteANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST AHEAD OF ME.
She must have been a Republican!
ReplyDeleteAlice refused to meet me one time, but then again what have I ever done for art in this shit hole of a cow town. If there is one thing you could say was definitively Alices' style was her tendency to focus on the same three artists in Kansas city, they must of been her pets. She will not be missed.
ReplyDeleteThere's such great art in KC. We need good coverage but there are places like KC Studio and others that are so much better than The Star.
ReplyDeleteHoopz first article as the Star's Art Critic: "The Velvet Elvis----Racist?"
ReplyDeleteThe Star had a "art critic?"
ReplyDeleteThe STAR is dying and almost dead. Start thinking about how to repurpose that new building!
ReplyDeleteJust think when the Star finally dies, the city leaders will push for a tax hike to fund an indoor entertainment district in that big green monstrosity. Or turn it into a parking lot for the friday hipsters.
ReplyDelete...and nothing of value was lost.
ReplyDeleteAlice will start her new position Monday at 10:00am at The Strand, video booth 14, Kleenex will be provided.
