How to get your art displayed at the Met Okay, my favorite new guy is "a shadowy British graffiti artist who calls himself "Banksy,'' as profiled in yesterday's New York Times. A fine artist whose work (like this unusual use of Mickey Mouse and Ronald McDonald at above) has been shown at major European galleries, he prefers to think of himself  as a "quality vandal" and focus on stunts, such as slipping into museums and affixing his work to their venerable walls. All it takes, he says, is "the judicious use of a fake beard and some high-strength glue." Which really gives one pause about high falutin' New York security.  Never mind: he hung a small portrait of a woman wearing a gas mask on one of the fancier walls at the Met, and graced the Museum of Natural History with a real, glass-encased beetle "equipped with fighter jet wings, missiles, and a satellite dish." I'm thinking the Cannes ad festival. I'm thinking getting some trick video snuck into the big final award show—which would make it even funnier than it (inadvertently) already is. For instance, there was one German agency guy last year who kept shouting about work that was "breast-taking. It takes my breast-away."  And just imagine what he'd say if had fighter jet wings, missiles and a satellite dish! —Posted by Barbara Lippert

®A
HumanBeingFlag

The purpose of this Flag, is to go Beyond, Color, Prejudice, Inhumanity and Injustice to All Human Beings.
We are All Human Beings.
We are All connected.
Our Soul, Spirit, is either All colors, or no color, or both.
I cannot debate that issue.
The flag has the four Human Being colors,,, White, Yellow, Red, and Black.
The triangle in each color represents our connection with the other Human Beings.
All pointing to the Centre, The Circle of Life.
The Centre represents Our Soul, Spirit, also the Circle of Life.
The symbols represent Man and Woman. Equal, but different.
And the symbol for Infinity, reminds Us All, that we will Forever be Connected as Human Beings, (Soul-Spirit)

As Human Beings, we were All born with Equal Rights. EQUAL RIGHTS. NOT EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES.
And for that,,,,,,,, I am saddened.
This is an invitation to go Beyond, Color, Prejudice, Injustice and Judgment.

This is an invitation to Share in Unity and Peace.

Purchase a Human Being Flag, and Present the world with another option.

This flag represents a Reach for Unity and Peace.
