45 YEARS TODAY FOR JFK

The assassination of John F. Kennedy, the thirty fifth president of the U.S. took place on November 22, 1963.

X marks the spot
If you believe that Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK then its possible to believe that John Lennon was there playing Imagine on his piano with Elvis backing him up on Guitar.


This photo was taken just seconds after the shots were fired.

Route they took.


Rifle found in book depository.

There may not have been photoshop back in those days but there was photo-manipulation, his hands and that gun look a little dodgy to me.

MORE ART LESS POLITICS

The Greek philosopher Plato argued that all conventional political systems were inherently corrupt and that the state ought to be governed by an elite class of educated philosophers.
Not following every single blog on the planet today we are not going to mention the elections, instead we are going to focus on our new show by Sarah Lucas.
Please come by and see her fantastic exhibition.
