The New Yorker and other critical voices hailed the young artist's 1990 show at the SoHo Postmasters Gallery as the post-'80s model of humility and diminished expectations.

The tall, pale Landers is often grouped with other "pathetic aesthetic" artists like Cary Leibowitz, Mike Kelley, and Jim Shaw.
It's about time I write somthin' in this guestbook. kinda of reminded me of vivian campell's tone on dio recording's. i thought they were kinda dry and didn't blend as well with the music as they could have. overall i thought this was a great effort and some jammin guitar work. when are you going to do that cover of "Underwater Pastor's Daughter" by the Baby Astronauts .
The thing of it was, Kevin didn't have any other skills. Demographic projections for Kevin's age-group - with modern medical care, preventative programs, reduced-calorie dieting and prosthetics - predicted a full century of active life ahead of him.

She didn't see what else she could do for him, or the millions like him, unemployed and unemployable.
