Parts of it, yes. There are a lot of types of modern art that do nothing for me... and less for my wife. I mean, I can understand what the artist may have had in mind... but the final product does not move me at all. Give me a well-designed car over a Warhol or a late Picasso any day.

We spent quite a bit of time on the trip home, debating what the art meant, and what the artist intended (which, some will argue, is the whole point to art after all). We came to two different conclusions, which were clearly (if you knew us) based on our own personal perceptions and opinions. I still think she was wrong! |

And she's not a member here, so we all think you must be right!
Glad you enjoyed your weekend; I'll keep an eye out for that DVD. |
