Don’t believe him? Then check it out when Goldfarb will be peddling the green fluid and his creepy artwork during “The Slow Poisoner's Budget Art Show” at Trunk Space. The one-man band is big on the DIY music circuit, dragging his wonderfully dark and bluesy Americana across the country. The Slow Poisoner’s art mines territory normally reserved for ’50s sci-fi and mystery comics with bright acrylic-on-wood paintings that pay homage to black magic and old-time movie monsters.
