Bwog announces the return of Thursday Room Hopping — now on a new day! Jessica’s room in Claremont is probably the best place on campus to sit pretzel-style on the ground with some milk and cookies for a read-aloud. The artistic senior spent the week of down-time before school began bringing the outdoors inside of […]

Too busy to make it to the Met? Butler displays are a poor substitute, but will do for a few minutes’ distraction. Bwog rookie Rob Stenson critiques the latest.  It’s exhibition installation season at Columbia, with first year MFAs in Schermerhorn (from high-art pornography to cable TV), and a senior thesis show in Dodge (exhibition […]

Three years ago, Marty and Jake said they didn’t plan on making juggling a career (then doing film and pre-med respectively, they’re now listed as majoring in economics and anthropology). From their website, it appears that the twins have gone professional already. Be warned: you may not want to open this site in front of […]

Last night, Columbia poli-sci professors Robert Jervis and Richard Betts tag-teamed Mount St. Vincent’s College’s Joseph Skelly on the situation in Iraq and Bwog artist Rachel Lindsay was on scene. This one was begging for a cartoon.  

The second in a series by B&W artist Rachel Lindsay–for all those mired in Kant right now.

The first in a series of pieces by B&W artist Rachel Lindsay:

Bwog doesn’t have the cash to “pimp your room,” and we certainly don’t want to raid it and then date you. So we bring you the semi-weekly Thursday feature, the “Cribs-esque” Room Hopping, continuing with… Kendall, C’08 rejoices in the “glue dot” (box at right). She has used this modest adhesive from Kate’s Paperie to […]

 More stuff you shouldn’t have saved on a public computer.   However, only the artists know the intentions that lie behind these choices. Since they are dead, we will never know but can guess.   These artists seem almost the equivalent of psychologists in that rather than telling us what is important, they depict it […]

Bwog doesn’t have the cash to “pimp your room,” and we certainly don’t want to raid it and then date you. So we bring you the semi-weekly Thursday feature, the “Cribs-esque” Room Hopping, continuing with… Kyle (right) and Jesse C’09 say they are glad to be out of the “beehive” that was John Jay. “My […]

In which Julia Butareva engages with Postcrypt’s “Exhibition” exhibition. We know we leave our traces in cyberspace. They can be Googled in an instant, and more importantly Facebooked. It takes vigilance and strict use of privacy controls to keep our interests in “kayaking” and other outdoor sports hidden from public safety officials and potential employers. […]

Bwog correspondent Justin Gonçalves spotted some guerilla art in front of Butler this evening. It reads, “give me a podium to spread my hate” on the left hand and “i’m a racist, sexist, homophobic supporter of physical/mental/economic violence.  i am made of wood,” on the right. Interpretations?

Bwog always thought there was something high art about the lurid yellow and blue of MetroCards. In the token booth of the116th st. B/C subway station on Frederick Douglass Blvd., a geometric genius has made numerous tiny sculptures (twin towers, a crucifix, subway cars) all out of the little subway passes. They’re super cute.
