Watercolor and absinthe

Posted in Journal 26 March 2002.
MM: "I have a photo of William Burroughs hanging in my hallway that looks a bit like that. I looked at it one day and thought, 'If I could do all the things that he did and still look like that when I get old, I'd be real happy.' So when I was painting it, I was drinking absinthe, which I often do, and I dipped a brush in the wrong bowl, in my drink, and that's when I discovered what a great stain absinthe makes on the paper."

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.
