Welcome to Boldizar.com,

a site for readers who agree that sometimes the best use for a fish is to place it in a friend’s ceiling panel and see what happens. But because that fish sometimes flops, if you’re here for the first time or just exploring, I recommend you click on the category “Boldizar’s favourites” and pick one

Santa, Odin and the Castrated Chicken

I’ve always found it puzzling that my Christian friends find it puzzling that I celebrate Christmas even though I’m not a Christian. Or that my Jewish and Muslim friends correct me when I bid them a “Merry Christmas!” Sometimes it seems that the only non-Christian demographic that doesn’t mind being

Ashley Bickerton’s Sad Anthropologists

Reprinted from C-Arts Magazine, July 2010. “The purpose of poetry is to remind us how difficult it is to remain just one person.” —Czeslaw Milosz Ashley Bickerton’s paintings are a form of combat between attachment and its opposite, a fusion of subject matter with distance between the parts. His ma

Hockey riot? Or prison riot?

June 16, downtown Vancouver. This was not a hockey riot. And the lessons that are being learned from it are the exact wrong ones. I live in Vancouver now, and watched last night’s game—and bonfire—from the corner of Georgia and Hamilton. But I’ve been in real riots: Prague when the Wall fell, a race

Pajama Wrestling — From Monster Mash to Pan Am Gold

Since starting this blog, I’ve tried to keep it general interest, to bring in personal experience only insofar as I consider the subjective perspective more intellectually honest than any pretense of objectivity.  I’ve avoided posts that are journal-like, etc. This is a departure from that. It’s, fi

If there is a meltdown…

"I can't hold my poo any longer!" says Nuclear Boy. Nuclear Boy is notorious for his stinky poop. It would surely ruin everyone's day if he pooped.

Taylor Momsen’s Secret Sex With a Green Fat Toxic Cancer Tumor

Reprinted from C-Arts Magazine (September 2010). I believe that the horrifying deterioration in the ethical conduct of people today stems from the mechanization and dehumanization of our lives—the disastrous by-product of the scientific and technical mentality.

The Happy Anarchist

Reprinted from Liberty Magazine (October 2009) Over the years the people I’ve met who self-identify as “anarchists” tend to be among the dumbest and the smartest people I’ve had the pleasure or displeasure of knowing. Very few reasonable people attach that label to themselves. In an attempt to avoid

The Beauty of the Lie

  Reprinted from C-Arts Magazine (January 2009) Ingmar Bergman once wrote that in an hour-long film there are 27 minutes of complete darkness, of space between film frames. “When I show a film I am guilty of deceit,” he continued. “I am using an apparatus that is constructed to take advantage of a

Astari: Hers

Reprinted from C-Arts Magazine (Sept 2008)  The goal keeper’s leap is fantastic, with sheer joy emanating from every gesture in her body, her face rapturous. The goal keeper’s goal, the ball she’s jumping for-to save, to catch, to keep-is a pink handbag. For her July 27th solo show, as part of the e
