We thought the prize for weirdest-named local artist went to Poopy Lickles, but here we've just learned about Butt Johnson. Ding ding ding! Trophy's all yours, Butt! Many other artists exhibit alongside Butt at "Kick Out the Jams," an exhibit curated by Hot & Cold zine editors Griffin McPartland and Christopher Robin Duncan to celebrate issue number two, which is chronologically number nine, but don't worry about it. The "hand-built" publication is one of the Bay Area's most beautiful such limited-edition books — and there are a hell of a lot of them around here. H&C contributors include the editors, collagist Chris Corales, and former Black Dice-er Hisham Akira Bharoocha among a truly impressive list of artists who probably don't engage in dumb jokes at the expense of their colleagues's names.
