Dammit I forgot the getaway car.
The prints by Julian Schnabel were spread on the floor, waiting for the framers. I could’ve rolled them up and carted them away. In fact I called six people to assist in the foul deed, but they were all working. What’s this world coming to when you can’t persuade your friends to join in an old-fashioned art heist? If Noel were in Manila we could’ve put our Mang Tomas Crown Affair plan into action (but we’d still need a driver).
The exhibition of Schnabel’s prints will open 6pm tomorrow, 12 June 2009, at Manila Contemporary, Whitespace, 2314 Chino Roces Avenue (Pasong Tamo Extension), Makati (across the street from Mead Johnson). Exhibition runs till 5 July. Details at www.manilacontemporary.com.
Recent Work, the exhibition of Schnabel’s paintings, will open 6pm on Saturday the 13th at the National Museum, Agrifina Circle, Manila. Exhibition runs till 30 July.
FAQ: Is the artist going to show up? As far as we know Julian Schnabel is busy filming in Israel, but who knows.

I liked Schnabel’s visuals in The Diving Bell And The Butterfly. His approach to directing the film was definitely coming from a non-film viewpoint.
