Opening tonight of a nice group show at SAA’s A.N.Bush gallery featuring various spins on the theme “Cabinet of Curiosities”…drawings, cabinets of stuff, photos, stuffed animals (taxidermy is very big these days) 9 or 10 artists, nice work, too much to meaningfully photograph. Better go take a look as it’s up until February 22. What caught my eye tonight was how many people WERE photographing the work…and each other!
On The Way 
The cultural practice of looking at art, museum going, and selfies makes for a tasty recipe—all the performing inside the white box. Thanks for posting!
…curious, you might say…
horror vacui – the fear of empty places
A lot like the unrelenting pull that Pinterest has on people to digitally collect images of anything and organizing them into a grid. I like it myself.
Curious—nothing but relentless curiosity with me. 🙂
Here too..I’ve looked at Pinterest…a time or two even seen a quilt or drawing of mine ON somebody’s grid…but am not compelled to “play”…luckily…:)
I spent time accumulating a collection of eye candy but put myself on a diet. It gets old and tiresome, not the interaction that I like from Facebook, but it was fun and I visit the images. Like a glass of fine cognac, visually.
I do enjoy your posts, both here and on facebook, and seems I’ve creeped into a community of friends surrounding you. Not having ever met you, or the friends, in person, I hope I’m not being too intrusive. I get so much from being in touch with those who relish the arts and books. 🙂
I’ve got to run. Sorry. I just got a new volunteer job with DIVA (Downtown Initiative for the Visual Arts, Eugene). I am hoping it will add experience to my resumé as I continue to search for a paid position. But it also is an amazingly interdisciplinary environment, rich with folks in the know when it comes to the arts. Today is my second day. —Jeesh! Did I just say something about not wanting to be intrusive? I am hijacking your blog! Sorry!
Have a wonderful day today Bonnie! I look forward to your posts and pics. ❤
Most interesting! i too am facinated by the things other people photograph, especialy other people in art situations, and am always thrilled to get such a shot, capturing both the artist and subject. You did a great job Bonnie.
