This pains me to write, because I adore David Byrne. The man is incredibly inspiring, always active, never resting on his laurels, a great social critic and just plain rockin' (his music made up a big chunk of my 'growing-up' soundtrack). So I was pretty bummed by one of the bike racks he recently created for the New York City (see the full article on The New York Times site). Each rack is in a different shape that relates to the location (for example, a dollar sign on Wall Street). It's a great way to add a little glamor to cycling, which is, of course a great way to use less gasoline, which is a great way to save the planet etc.

Welcome to the first entry of sm[art]! As a visually-focused person (I’m the art director here at Bitch), I decided it was high time to devote a special spot to visual arts. I hope to spotlight the works of artists of all kinds, who have some feminist, social or political themes in their work.

check out her work! it is great - plus! we are having a bake sale! come on by and if you aren't in the area, eat a cupcake and look at some art in spirit with us! 

We are thrilled, estatic, honored, and pleased as heck, to announce that artist Judy Chicago, whole ideas and work have shaped the feminist art movement (see an interview with her in our Super Issue), has agreed to be our Honorary Chair for sm[art], our fall art auction. Damn, I have nothing else to say at this point, but that it is pretty sweet. And good news to kick off a 3 day weekend. Hope all of you each get something good like that coming your way.

Bitch is happy to be a co-sponsor of a show at MINT gallery in Atlanta on

Saturday, February 9th, 7 - 11 pm * www.mintgallery.org or http://www.myspace.com/mintshowroom, featuring the work of Jessica Gonacha, Sunni Johnson and Emily Maxwell.

Please go out and support these artists and MINT gallery. If you go, let us know how the show went since none of us Bitch staffers can make the journey from Portland (although we would like to be there).
