Equestrian glory

Later today we are going to Auckland to see the exhibition Beginning in the archive: Giovanni Intra 1989-1996 at Artspace. Anyone who knew Giovanni would have had drawers full of his distinctive graphics on invitations, letters, small magazines and Teststrip publications. His spidery, surreal exhortations to become involved in CRIMINY or to contact 0800 ANALGESIC were as distinctive as your own handwriting even though designed by exotics like crushed honey and sex checks. The invitation to the opening show of Teststrip in the Vulcan Lane space was typical of the seriously insane fun being had then, and hopefully in Auckland tonight.
