Mon, Jan 29, 6:00 pm Fernando Botero's Art Opening UC Berkeley, Room 190, Doe LibraryBerkeley Fernando Botero, the most famous living Latin American artist, will display his Abu Ghraib paintings at the University of California, Berkeley. These 47 paintings and drawings belong to a long tradition of artistic statements against war and violence that include Goya's Caprichos and Picasso's Guernica. Organized by the Center for Latin American Studies, these paintings have never been displayed in a public institution in the United States. The exhibit was "proposed to many museums in the U.S," according to the artist, but all declined to show it. This will be the last chance to view these works before they return to Europe. "[These paintings] are among Mr. Botero's best work, and in an art world where responses to the Iraq war have been scarce - literal or obscure - they stand out." New York Times, 2006. Continued Exhibition Hours and Location Room 190, Doe Library January 29 - March 23, 2007 Monday - Thursday: 10:00 am - 7:00 pm Friday - Saturday: 10:00 am - 5:00 pm Closed on Sundays For more information contact:Center for Latin American Studies (510) 642-2088 http://www.clas.berkeley.edu

There's gotta be an elephant with a brush that could make a lot of peanut and celery money with the right colors and a good PR guy.

The reader will recall that Shammo de SD has bragged about its vague activities in Israel. It's quite the typical shameless joojingo or JJ Usenet blowhole. Since 1990 JAM* has murdered > two million people in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, Colombia and Texas. The Israelis trained the torturers of Abu Ghraib. Before too long Shammo and Fake Steven --pen-names for Dianne Feinstein and Tom Lantos-- hope to slaughter Americans in the same style which the Pentagon has employed in so many other places around the globe. This is called "ultimate leverage". Honest folk of the rainbow can save our lives and our Home Planet only by completely destroying the mad & bloody tyranny of the JASPers and replacing it with a genuine world democracy based on the rule of law. * Jewish-American eMpire =================================== On Feb 16, 10:31 pm, "Steven" <thisjukeboxplays33...@yahoo.com> wrote: > On Feb 16, 10:34 pm, "Stan de SD" <standesd_DIGA_NO_A_S...@covad.net> > wrote: > > No "statement against war and violence" whatsoever - he's a hypocrite who is > > more concerned about the fact that a few out-of-control enlisted guys > > roughed up some inmates than the reality that those same inmates were > > terrorists who advocated killing people merely for not sharing their > > religious views. Shammo Feinstein's "religious view" = G_d created the whole world for Jews only, all others to serve merely as their pincushions or slaves. SF cheers all murders of normal** men and women by Jews, included the scenes painted by the great Fernando Botero, worthy heir to Bosch, Brueghel, Goya and Rivera. > There's gotta be an elephant with a brush that could make a lot of > peanut and celery money with the right colors and a good PR guy.- FS proves that a kosher turd incarnadine can type almost as well as a drunk monkey. .............................................. ** Alias "gentile".
