From the Editor (Summer 2007)

From the Editor
Summer 2007
Volume 3
Number 2





















The Summer 2007 issue is dedicated to the living memory of :

Don Ho
August 13, 1930 to April 14, 2007

Much has been written about the incomparable Don Ho, and many of our readers have very personal stories to share about how his songs and joie de vivre made them smile. Don Ho is a true Hawaiian legend. His family will carry on the Ho legacy through the Ohana Ho show in Waikiki. Don, we'll remember your music, smile and Aloha spirit.


Aloha,

We're excited to bring you the Tiki lowbrow art of Von Franco, this issue's featured artist. Tiki Farm's Holden Westland has this to say on writing the story: "There are so many layers of history that make up a guy who is the caliber and stature of Von Franco. I could easily have doubled or even tripled the content of the story. He's affected so many people in such a positive way and has got so many great little 'left and right turn' stories about his life. Franco's pretty bad ass, and I mean that in a good way."

Sven Kirsten offer his own take on Tiki Pioneer William Westenhaver and Witco. Not just an excerpt from Sven's new book Tiki Modern (Taschen), this is an orginal article on moderism, primitivism and Witco's role in the world of Tiki: "By the 1950s, not only abstract modernism, but also what inspired it, the art of 'primitive' peoples, become the new 'thing' to distinguish oneself as a cultured citizen of the modern world."

Our far-flung correspondents have traveled around the world to bring you the Tiki of the past, present and future. James Teitelbaum drove the highways and byways of New England, from Connecticut to Maine to the Canadian border. Chris Osburn reports on the old Trader Vic's in Havana, now called El Polinesio, and Kari Hendler ventured to Oahu one week after the passing of Don Ho. She met Ho's agent, Lou Robin, and gathered impressions from Shag, Holden Westland and others on whom Ho had a great impact.

Tiki revelers only had to wait eight months between Hukilaus. Jonpaul Balak and Chris Osburn were in Florida to soak it all up. Jonpaul also visited the new Jetsetter Lounge, "where your mid-century fantasy becomes reality."

We look forward to seeing you in San Diego on Friday November 2 at the Tiki Island art show at the Bali Hai. Come see new works by Derek Yaniger, Doug Horne, Thor, Gecko, Bosko, and many more.
Mahalo,

Nick Camara
Publisher/Editor
