1. Andrew Levi Klaus "a strong visual style and narrative tendencies” Bruce La Bruce “[Klaus has ] ... highly trained artistic sensibilities” The Feminist Review [Klaus' work ] does what breakthrough art is supposed to do: it stimulates, provokes, and challenges. It evokes a mood and attitude, by being just translucent enough to hint at a possible point of view without overt statement.” Jim Dittmer (art critic and curator.) "The images of Nocturnes and Nightmares have the subversion of Piss Christ and the reverence of La Pieta. It is very mesmerizing work.” Byron Beck (writer and critic)

3. Les Enfants Gris: Paintings of children, most likely dead. These are from my 2006 collection entitled "Les enfantsgris” (The Grey Babies.) I envisioned them as portraits of lost children, orphans who died in mysterious ways, an orphanage fire perhaps, accidental poisonings, pneumonia. I sketched many many more and sculpted a few pieces of toys that were to have been the possessions of the children.

76. Personal Pornographies Leo Bersani stated (and I'm paraphrasing here so forgive me) that homosexuals spend more time remembering a sexual encounter, memorializing it and rhapsodizing it as opposed to heterosexuals who spend their time anticipating the sexual act (which explains the lingerie industry if you ask me).
