Nophoto-m-50x66 J.D. Riso read and liked Andy's review of Flight Out of Time: A Dada Diary (Documents of Twentieth Century Art):

"This is an astounding document not only of an individual life but of a certain place and time. Ball was one of the guiding lights behind Zurich Dada, and this is his memoir/meditation on his tragically abbreviated life. Composed throughout the 1910's...more "




J.D.'s favorite quotes

"A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you . . . Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question . . . Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't it is of no use."
Carlos Castaneda
