telemachus[and]eucharis

Now I was taught about this image by the amazing queer theorist Satish Padiyar. And whatta one for the guys it is! Fraternal devotion rules over heterosexual desire. He flips the outside world the v and connects their curly brains one last time as she clings to him trying to be all nymphish and sexy in her barely there pinnie. Then zoom -  he's using her knee to jerk himself up and outta there.
LOVE SUCKS Eucharis...but there'll be others.

HANS XAVER MESSERSCHMIDT

HE IS G[O]OD.

Being in considerable pain from an undiagnosed illness (potentially Crohn's) Hans developed the self-medicated strategy of pinching his lower right rib to alleviate the pain away from his digestive system. He then went about expertly creating a collection of sculpted character heads, in marble and bronze, depicting the faces he made in the mirror whilst doing the pinch.
When you think about the eighteenth century world of Rococo pastel violence we're used to seeing, these character busts seem unusually self-expressive before their time.
