Man
of La Mancha By Jeremiah Stansbury Text
by Luigi Fairbanks ____________________
When
we get paintings like this piece by Jeremiah Stansbury, I like to wander around
Defenestration HQ and ask everyone what their initial impression is upon viewing
the piece. So here were a few reactions: Andrew: “It actually
reminds me of you, Luigi. Remember that time in Scotland when we went to that
lake in the middle of the night, and I said, ‘Don’t get too close to any
green horses,’ and you didn’t listen and got near one anyway? Remember how I
had to save you from those kelpies? They gave me a medal after that. Remember
that medal?” Eileen: “PONIES!” Genevieve: “That person’s going to cut the sun in two.
And then, candy will come out. I speak, of course, of the piñata theory of the
universe. Would you care for a pamphlet?” Haratron: “I never understood art. I never understood
horses, either. What I do understand is electronics and pornography, and this
reminds me of neither.” Bigfoot: “I see the Man of La Mancha.”
