Naked in Cleveland delivers the art and poetry of Steve Smith,
and a delectable offering from Peter Conklin Ball; this online
exhibit can be seen only at The Digital Museum of Modern
Art. Smith, founder of the underground 'zine ArtCrimes, is an
"outspoken poet and inveterate artist whose transgressive
art works are collected by renegade art enthusiasts and main
stream corporations alike." His magnetic style has extended to
the web with his Agent of Chaos website. Ball has been making
music on synthesizers for over twenty-five years, writing and
recording, playing and singing on countless original songs,
and he's the consummate underground personality. The
exhibition also features a "poem cycle" - 41 of Smith's poems
hyperlinked in a strange web of errant and provocative
musings; show opens online Wed 3/30.
