MM: "This appeared in Rolling Stone with my essay about Columbine and is sort of a caricature of [Eric] Harris and [Dylan] Klebold taken from their high school photographs. I was making a statement about America, and it was definitely part of my reaction for being blamed for something like Columbine. I thought the title 'Crop Failure' was appropriate for several reasons. Columbine, some people might know, is a flower. And, obviously, ['Crop' represents] raising up your children and harvesting them properly. Something did go wrong here, and I think the farmers should be blamed, not the entertainers."
The Golden Age of Grotesque was Marilyn Manson's first art exhibition, held at the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions Center. Paintings exhibited included works completed by as early as 1998, and Manson's "Grey" period, up to early 2002. This exhibition spanned from September 13, 2002 until September 14, 2002.
Also appeared in the Trismegistus show. Trismegistus was Marilyn Manson's second art exhibition, held in Paris and Berlin. Paintings exhibited largely included but were not limited to works displayed during The Golden Age of Grotesque exhibition. This exhibition featured nine new additions on display. This exhibition spanned from September 14, 2004 until September 15, 2004.
