Why the name Ranch Chimp? it was in humour because, science says that humans have similar DNA to a chimpanzee,so I felt some way related biologically to a chimpanzee. 2nd, everytime I was out of Texas on a vacation or for whatever reason I’m always asked things like, do I live on a ranch?,or have cattle? so I commonly call Dallas the Ranch. "Politically Depressed" was also humour inspired by the 1993- 2002 Bill Maher TV/ tele show "Politically Incorrect".

LOUISE BOURGEOIS: 1911-2010 .... "Supplica a mia Madre" (Galas/ Pasolini) ....
Louise Bourgeois
This posting is to pay homage to the outstanding creation's of the sculpture/ artist .... Ms. Louise Bourgeois who passed away yesterday May 31st, 2010ce. Her work's are at the top of my list as far as art .... and her spirit/ influence will continue.
Fortunately I was able to find a video show of some of her art with another favourite artist of mine doing the music score .... Ms. Diamanda Galas doing the classic piece ( Pasolini/ Galas ) called "Supplica a mia Madre" (Italiano for "Plea to my Mother"), ( more of Ms. Galas here ) I had the opportunity to meet and chat with Ms. Galas about 20 year's ago .... and she is more beautiful in person than on camera even .... and her music/ art is a beauty unparalleled as well! .... Enjoy ........
Louise Bourgeois ... Thanx to LCK GD

Hey Brother Tim, I would assume that your son definitely know's her work's!
ReplyDeleteLater dude .......
AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteI loved it. I could never be considered even close in talent as an artist, but
I once helped friends decorate for an elaborate halloween party the theme was "mad scientist lab"
My favorite contribution was a prop I'd made which was a cloth type doll I'd suspended in colored liquid in a large pickle jar) It was a real work of art umbilical cord & everything. I titled it "Fetus Abortus" Unfortunately, it was considered too risque & possibly offensive to the conservative rural population around here, so my fetus was aborted from the show.
Whoaa ... what a story and piece of art indeed. It may not just because you are in a rural area, I mean .... these type's of image's can be graphic to even city folk's or any folk's ... some thing's are tougher to look at for some. But sound's like a real work you done there. Thanx for sharing Ms.Rita!
