New visitors to otherwise sleepy Greenvale who eventually get around the town proper will soon realize that it isn’t as fancy as New York, Paris, Tokyo or some other big city packed with all sorts of fancy art galleries and museums. However, if you look around you can find art in the strangest of places. This particularly controversial piece is “Untitled” and I didn’t get the artist’s name at all (as it was scrawled in blood colored paint), but it’s a truly striking work that’s bound to raise a few hackles amongst certain viewers who see it as exploitative. I think it represents the monotonous daily grind of preparing for work each day by starting off with a hot shower or something. But I really don’t know much about art… I just know what I like.
On the other hand, the best artworks generate debate as to their meanings and just outside the location this piece was exhibited at, there are a few people having an animated discussion about the work. I didn’t want to get too close to them, as it’s rude to be so nosy, but I think they were actually convinced the sculpture inside was REAL and one of them even put in a call to that FBI Special Agent I’ve seen popping up around town over the last couple of days. Hah! just wait until he shows up here expecting to find a dead body and finds out it’s just a VERY lifelike mannequin in that working shower. Boy, I’d like to find out who made this – I’d even shake his (or her?) hand for doing something SO dramatic with the simplest of materials.
Speaking or artsy things… even though the release date is less than a week away, did you know you can still pre-order a copy of Rising Star Games’ PlayStation 3 exclusive Deadly Premonition: The Director’s Cut before it hits stores on April 30? There’s even MORE art on display here in those updated HD visuals, PlayStation Move and 3D TV support, over 100 improvements over the original version, new DLC and more. I’d bet that playing this game will make you appreciate a few kinds of artwork you’d never have thought about until you picked up a copy of this one…
Of course, if you’re a really highbrow kinda guy like Game Director Swery 65, you know all about art and appreciating it for what it is. Hey, you don’t get to smoke huge cigars and sip fine cognac because you happen to have them lying around in the house like a can of beans, y’know. Sit down with the man for a smoke and snifter and he’ll probably regale you with tales of the good olde days of making art and how he’s turned into one of the more recognizable names in his field in such a relatively brief time. That, or he’ll just ask if you’ve played his new game and what your favorite part was. I’d say you better have a darn good answer, as those big cigars and cognac aren’t cheap. I’m betting that’s a good Croizet in that glass…

Hey, speaking of creeps, prepare to get a whole caseload of them in a week’s time when 
Based on what transpired after it hit theaters back in 1960, one could almost say that career suicides don’t come any better or more stylish than acclaimed director Michael Powell’s Peeping Tom. Controversial immediately upon release in the UK, the film was banned for many years from public showings in some countries, but took on a life of its own as the years passed and is seen as a genre classic by many horror fans today.
