what this artist got for christmas
i got some really cool stuff this year!
a subscription to parkett. this 'magazine' is more like a book published every 4 months, a collaboration between artists and writers and usually features some really kick-arse artists from around the world. woo hoo!
a lovely red mohair rug by mercer + reid. warm, red and with a lovely checked weave, it's perfect for slightly chilly melbourne evenings.
a lightly "fly on the wall" mirror. i saw these a few weeks ago and put one one on layby. some sneaky family member spilled the beans and paid it off for me! how cool is that!
an old-school map of paris. ah, one of my spiritual homes, it's lovely, doesn't even feature l'avenue des champs elysees and i'm looking forward to framing it to put up in my new place (wherever that may be).
i hope santa was good to all of you as well!

Happy Christmas also from Europe!
We are so happy that this year it was the first time that we all in our family did not spend any money on gifts, that is that result of a many year training to scale down. (Exception: people under 18) We are discovering new forms of ceremony, perhaps it's time for a new step in culture, more back to the origin of coming together in a spiritual way with saving environment.

OK so I'm late to wish you a Happy Christmas but I'm still able to wish you a Happy New Year and hopefully [at least for me] we'll get to meet up sometime in '08!
All the best ...

PS: And yes, I have written the same post on too many blogs, ha!
Hi Thorsten!! Frohe Weihnachten aus Ihr auch!!
Thanks for the reminder about reducing my need for 'stuff' and i'm interested in hearing about the importance of ceremony (as opposed to acrimony) at this time.
Thanks Rob! Yes, we must finally meet up this year (although i'm kind of getting used to this element of mystery) and i hope the New Year is great for you guys too.
