June 15th - Tuesday - Day 23
omz i have never walked so much! we gallery hopped today. pretty awesome, we went to like 7 or 8 different galleries and some of it was pretty neat and some of it the art work was like wtf? how is this art? i would have really like to read the artist statements on some of it. but i did see one exhibit in the white cube that caught my curiosity, he was a sculptor and he toyed with race and sexuality. he did huge sculptures of Micheal Jackson's head and hand, and one set was white and black and the other was an exact mirror image in black and white. i wish i could have taken photos. his other works was sculptors of the pregnant man, Pamela Anderson, and the porn couple that looks like one sex but they have the equipment of the opposite sex, and he casted them in bronze and brass. finally he did a head sculptor of the 'cat' man, the one of the guy who has tattoos and whiskers so he looks like a cat, you have seen him on Ripley's believe it or not. he also had paintings on the walls that where very colorful and at first glance they just looked like flowers and what not but if you got close enough and really looked, guess what? lol. no one else liked the exhibit, and maybe i am a perv but i thought it was a very interesting subject for him to take interest in and his spin on the subject was very interesting. i will find out his name so you can look up his work. tomorrow is STONEHENGE!!!
Love,
Natasha
