Trevor Brown's stolen art for sale : unexpected epilogue!

I will return your works “Trevor Brown 1984-1993″.
Please return your address to my e-mail address
I am still sick but I’ve heard my friend KIKUTI said to me
“Trevor want to return his works”.

read this post first
it’s taken a while (17 years?) but today i got my artwork back! (minus several colour photos but nothing to cry about) - i guess i’m happy, particularly in the knowledge someone can no longer be tempted to impart a stupid amount of money for it - the actual art was mostly printed in “temple of blasphemy”, as i said - tho there are a number of drawings unpublished/unseen for decades (including a self-portrait!) - i’ll celebrate it’s return by posting a few here (before throwing it all in the trash!)

no, not me! - it’s an unused gg allin 7″ cover - i was told i drew him “too nice” (?) - my logo design for the label used instead

Mosques, Churches, and Synagogues Made From Bullets and Guns

A menorah welded from handguns; a relic display containing “trigger finger” bones of fictional Catholic Saints; scale replicas of cathedrals, synagogues and mosques sculpted with artillery shells, tank parts and bullets — all of these are part of American artist Al Farrow’s Reliquaries series. There aren’t just weapons here: a piece of the Berlin Wall, a part of an Israeli Army issued Tefilin bag and rusted war antiquities excavated in France intermingle with bone and steel walls of Farrow’s model houses of worship. Whether topped with a crucifix, a six-point star or a crescent, the objects are powerful plays on history of religion and violence.
Al Farrow’s New Reliquaries are currently exhibited at the Catherine Clark Gallery in San Francisco, including his most recent and ambitious work Bombed Mosque, a meticulously detailed, 780-pound sculpture composed from 50,000 bullets.
