Bad art from good drunks
The Brooklyn Paper
Editor Gersh Kuntzman gets drunk in the footprint of Atlantic Yards in the name of art:
To better appreciate the fine works hanging on Freddy’s walls, I got pretty damn drunk the other night and pulled out a pen and my reporter’s notebook. Through the foggy haze of a pint of Blue Point Toasted Lager (I wasn’t so drunk that I forgot that they don’t sell Brooklyn Lager at this anti-Atlantic Yards bar), I remembered Teraberry’s words — “Drunken art often goes to the dark place of one’s soul” — and went to the darkest place I know: home plate when I was a kid in Little League (pictured).
NoLandGrab: Lucky for Brooklyn, Gersh is a better editor than artist or ball player.
