Weirdness... I just found this video blog entry in which Penn (of Penn and Teller) shares his huge collection of Tony Fitzpatrick etchings. He doesn't consider himself an art collector even though he has a "Tony Room" of every Tony Fitzpatrick etching ever made and says he will get every one yet to come.
Penn also talks about the work of another artist he got very early and who has since become a superstar.

my first show in New York was at a gallery called Big Cat Gallery.. that was named so because the owner was great friends with Tony (and that was his nickname)..
i first saw his stuff in philadelphia at janet fleisher gallery, in like the latest 8o's, and am wondering if that is where penn was getting stuff... because i once saw penn and teller go into the nearby apt building over the restaurant where i worked.
i think one of their mothers lived there.
So this is pretty off topic and embarrassing, but I only just just now realized that the person in Penn and Teller who does not talked is named Teller and that's ironic.
I must be the last person on Earth to realize this.
Why could he not show Kara Walker's work since he owns it?
