SCOTT TEPLIN, "Moron," Jessica Murray Projects, 210 North Sixth Street,
Williamsburg, Brooklyn, (718)384-9606 (through May 11). Mr. Teplin's
delightfully inventive drawing is like a conference call among Dr. Seuss, R.
Crumb, Ed Ruscha and Rube Goldberg. Words like moron, flap jack and bonus
hole are dug into the ground, constructed from industrial steel or whirling
in space, while floating beds, gobs of mud, circulating tubes, spurting,
gnarly nipples and disembodied mouths convey a spirit of gleeful surrender
to the mind's own perversely polymorphous energies (Johnson).
