GO WEST YOUNG MAN
Brother Tom is surely hitting the books hard down in
href="http://www.fuqua.duke.edu/index_40.html">North Carolina right
now, but he spent his summer extensively road testing the
href="http://www.tomhogarty.com/gallery/eldo">El Dorado. He's got
pictures up at his site,
including some of the
href="http://www.tomhogarty.com/gallery/wva?&page=3">Cadillac Farm
in Amarillo, Texas. The Farm was the most famous piece of work by Doug
Michels, founder of the Ant Farm--an art and design collective.
Michels died alone recently while hiking to a whale watching spot in
Eden Bay, Australia. Jim Knipfel wrote about his
href="http://nypress.com/16/33/news&columns/slackjaw.cfm">life and
premature death in The New York
Press a few months ago. The buried Caddies, long covered with
graffiti as they are in Tom's pictures, are going to be painted black
in memory of Michels.
