Now I’ve titled this post “redux” because it’s the second post we’ve got on this particular subject but it’s the first where it’s not just a super-super-preview. This is the real deal, the show, the real show deal. It’s Kris Kuksi, it’s lots of death, not much cake, and sculpture. Sculpture that’s so grotesque you’ll have to get your Dictionary of Death out and cross out the definition for grotesque and write what you saw at “Beast Anthology” and call it good. The entire preview for the show is inside this post.

This post is a terrifying addition to the World Famous Design Junkies grotesque category.
