Hey all, here is a leetle reminder that the Anchor Graphics 11th Anniversary

Benefit & Art Auction is coming up this Saturday, May 5th, from 7pm -
12:30am.

We'll be auctioning off works by local and national artists, including works

by Red Grooms, Karl Wirsum, the Zhou Brothers, Laurie Hogin (she does those
angry bunnies), and Leon Golub, among many others.

We will also be auctioning off dinners at fine art galleries with five
illustrious (and in some cases, illustrative) artists, including Ed Paschke,

Tony Fitzpatrick, Dan Ramirez, Paul Sierra, and Scott Olson. Winners of the

"Dinner With the Artist" auction will spend an evening dining and sharing
stimulating conversation with five of their closest friends and one of these

fascinating artists.

There will also be a raffle for items such as framing certificates from
Artists' Frame Service, gift boxes from Pearl Art and Craft, a free Shiatsu
massage session, a free hour of sex therapy, and lots of other goodies.

Guests will enjoy delicious food and drink, a live DJ, and dancing and
revelry following the auction.

Tickets to the benefit are $30 in advance and $35 at the door. Also, as
trustworthy friends of mine, if any of you wish to volunteer some time at
the event for the good of this fine non-profit organization (selling raffle
tickets, wrapping art, etc.), you will be given free admission in return.
This means you get all of the above, for free. I went to this event last
year, and it was a lot of fun, especially if you're an artist! We
graciously accept anyone's assistance, so don't be shy.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at home or at

work!

DISCERNING PIGEONS: A Japanese professor of cognitive science "has managed to get pigeons to recognize whether a painting is a van Gogh or a Chagall - even if they had never seen it before. He trained three pigeons for a month by showing them on a computer screen eight masterpieces by van Gogh and Chagall. Pigeons were fed when they pecked at pictures by van Gogh. They received nothing when pecking at a Chagall." Discovery 04/29/01
