Wed 27 August 2008 - Matthew Flinders

The Age today has a give-away poster of the Art Deco exhibit Spirit of Progress ‘Matthew Flinders’ picture.

It’s not quite as massive as the poster on the side of the gallery.

Hmm, that’d make a great framed print for my house. Err, slightly smaller that is. Not sure where I’d put it though.

    Perhaps if we all chipped in - we could get the big one for your birthday. Just move some stuff around - I’m sure it would fit. PS. Happy birthday!

    On top of the house. With solar panels on the back. Should be enough to power your whole block. The other bonus is that journalists would have no trouble finding the PTUA representative’s house. ;-)

    Pfft, just take the NGV as your new house, no redecorating required :P

    Jayne, I like your idea. It is close to public transport, nice parks as well as to sundry arts venues, has plenty of room and comes pre-furnished. Mind you, getting all those people every day wanting to come in and look at your etchings would be a bit of a bother.

    I might just add to Jayne’s comment by surrealistically surmising how I would love to live in a toaster if I could fit.

    But yes…the art deco fold-out was certainly a welcome addition to the usual bad news about Kosky’s intelligence (or lack thereof).
