Maurice Sendak drawing of a couple of Wild Things enjoying some good books. Auction estimate $8000-12000. christies.com/en/lot/lot-65289

Early sketch depicting the Wild Thing characters that Sendak came to call Bernard and Moishe. Moishe has his reading glasses on and is engrossed in a finely bound copy of fairy tales. Bernard is preparing to feast on a stack of books. The authors reflect some of Sendak's own favorite children's authors: the spines show books by Richard Hughes, the Brothers Grimm, Randolph Caldecott, and William Nicholson.

Honestly, I think you could just recount Jack Kirby's *actual* life and you'd likely have something more imaginative and interesting than anything you could make up, but I'm still here for this.

Laetitia Pilkington's no-good husband threw her out on the street, penniless. Most women would have disappeared.

But Laetitia survived, thanks to a sparkling wit and a willingness to spill ALL OF THE TEA in print. She's my hero and she should be yours, too.

Love this. In his “I Agree” installation Dima Yarovinsky-Yahel took the content from terms of service statements for companies like Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Tinder and printed them out on A4 paper with a standard font size for legal contracts to demonstrate the length of these agreements.

Alt-Txt: Two people stand before multi-color strips of paper with text on them that stretch down an entire wall and onto the floor. The title of the installation "I Agree" appear in all caps on the wall, too.

To my brother’s, and finding him in a lie about the lining of my new morning gown, saying that it was the same with the outside, I was very angry with him and parted so.

Giant hand painted cork magnet. It depicts a beautifully painted scowling frog. It’s only showing half the frog’s face, centered mostly on one giant gleaming eye and a heavy frown. I ran into an art friend at a show and she dragged me to the booth this was at and told me this was made for me and she was 100% correctA wooden magnet the shape of Illinois with a laser cut portrait of Jerry Orbach looking dreamily off to the right. It has the words “Illinois land of Jerry Orbach” above the portraitA magnet based on locally famous road sign (silhouette of ared devil with a big beard holding a scythe over flames with the caption “go to CHURCH or the DEVIL will get you”) and also a beautiful meme mashup by hermit (captain haddock looking exhausted next yo a stressed Snowy saying “what a week, huh?” And instead of Tintin next to him saying “Captain, it’s Tuesday” my little medieval Wednesday frog guy is there)A small ceramic fish I got at the art collective. It’s kind of horrifying. It has a large bulging yellow eye, a wet looking red mouth with lips drawn back, and its tail fans out expansively. It’s flat and is meant to hang on the wall. The glaze is cool, on flat surfaces it’s a mottled grey-brown but in the textured spots it splits and is a luminous blue
