Last chance! FRESH PORK: Luau Pig Collaborations. Git 'em before ebay does...

Yes indeed! The other white meat is back with a vengeance and ham-fisted shenanigans are afoot! 12 artists modify, chop, slice, boil, grill, and otherwise ruin a perfectly good Luau Pig for this online show and sale. It makes me happy as a pig in... well....

Just think of it....

•A gallery show you can attend in your jammies!
•No pesky valets to tip!
•Your own choice of hors d'oeuvres and beverages! (Chicharrones and Fanta for me!)
•No pretentious artsy-fartsy characters breathing cheap Merlot and Marlboros in your face! (Unless you happen to co-habitate with one)
•And PIGS! GLORIOUS PIGS!!

I could go on about all the porkerific aspects of this show and sale but I'll let this little preview do the talking. More blanks will be filled in as I receive them. Stay tuned!!!!

Looks like a great show....I'm "pretty sure" I can attend!

Good...It looks like I'm not the only slacker...

Don't worry about Babalu Master Squids...I'm still grooming my Oinksters for the Great Pig Race of 2010. I'll be in the gates and ready when the gun goes off!

Mahalo to all the fine swine connoisseurs who have adopted our little oinkers!!

Wow! Incredible concept and incredible work by all the artists involved! Congrats, Squid!!! My mind has been reduced to a fine goo by the power of the talent on display here!

What a killer idea for show this is...all the mugs look fantastic!

War Pig is an acquired taste!

Congrats to all who sold their piggies and to their new owners!

It's supposed tho say "chance", not "change".
You have to excuse Squid's spelling. He's from Missouri, and they weren't real big on schoolin' and learnin' thangs back when he was a young un.
