Ah, Domy Books. It’s where you go to have the boring burned out of your soul. The latest exhibit Domy will be showcasing on its walls is ”Hate Expo,” courtesy of Mushroom Necklace, a collaboration between Dusty Peterman and William Keihn. Haven’t seen work by Mushroom Necklace? Imagine if you took every surreal Internet meme with a don’t- give-a-shit attitude you’ve ever seen, then somehow filtered them all through the classic punk rock posters of old, and you’re getting close. Remember, we said close.
At ”Hate Expo,” you’ll see Live at the Stupid Club, a rage-filled, bitter advertisement with smiling skulls inviting you to “bring your fake friends” and enjoy “typical bullshit.” Another poster features a one-eyed Precious Moments figurine defecating while proclaiming, “I mith you.” (That one will stay with you.) There’s an opening reception at 7 p.m. February 4. Regular viewing hours are noon to 8 p.m Mondays through Fridays, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sundays. Through March 15. 1709 Westheimer. For information, call 713-523-3669 or visit www.domystore.com. Free.
