She lived three doors down from me on the second floor and I used to see her Jane's Addiction, "Nothing's Shocking" styled dolls in the window. I did not meet her until the day I moved out, a year to the day, as she was the only one on the floor who'd let me use the phone. She showed me her photo books of her NY life and stories of drag queens, Dee-Lite and the NY scene she rant with. She told me how she ended up in Chicago and why she survived when no one else did (she was afraid of needles). There's a sad irony to all of this and I really wish I'd have purchased that doll that I saw in her window every day, the Siamese Twins in blue jackets. Does anyone know where you can get her work? If I know better, my thought is some idiot probably just threw them out when they cleaned out her Chicago apartment. RIP Greg/Greer. And thanks for being kind enough to help me out of a jam when no one else in the building would.MJRydsFasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278127561773901252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-22006977625396695912008-11-16T14:13:00.000-05:002008-11-16T14:13:00.000-05:00Greatest artist EVERGreatest artist EVERAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-88910125682481828882008-10-02T00:26:00.000-04:002008-10-02T00:26:00.000-04:00The Mattress Factory in Pittsburg has written to s...The Mattress Factory in Pittsburg has written to say:<BR/><BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for posting about Greer Lankton and linking to the Mattress Factory website. Just a small note of correction: the Mattress Factory has no affiliation with Andy Warhol or the Andy Warhol museum.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Also, the Mattress Factory will be making Greer's 1996 piece (It's All About ME, Not You) part of the museum's permanent collection. We are currently rehabing a new exhibition space where the piece will be on view beginning in late-2009 or 2010.Zagriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124379637664963835noreply@blogger.com
