I'm not taken with all his work, but some of it moves me.

It's Man Ray's birthday today

And I did a Google Image search to celebrate it.  Which led me to this article, which introduced me to hEyOkA mAgAzInE.  I have always been intrigued by sacred clowns, so I kept following the path seeing where that rabbit hole would lead.  And on the home page it said:

The new site is

Leading me to another interesting place.

Life is good. :-)

Music of the Spheres

SolarBeat is too cool.

There are several times when it sounds a little like Peter and the Wolf.  Which REALLY cracks me up,

I am the fish in the pond
The heron wants to eat me

Keep on Crossing

Last night, we had date-night in Greensboro because Chuck's work has kept him too busy to get home this week. When I got to Tate Street, he told me he'd heard about something going on at the Weatherspoon Gallery on the UNC-G campus and asked if I knew where it was. It was right behind me, half a block down.

So, we went. And, to our delight, found that Thursday is the one night a week that they stay open until 9.

We went through every gallery, except the sculpture garden. There was some Board something going on and it looked like they were using that, so we skipped it this visit.

The largest visiting exhibit was TRANSactions: Contemporary Latin American and Latino Art, which had some magnificent pieces that touched both of us.

One piece we liked in particular was the Keep on Crossin' Manifesto on a tortilla by Perry Vasquez and Victor Payne.

Tania Candiani's Greedy caught our attention. We liked a Beeswax and perfumed oil piece by Valeska Soares" that was 2 mouths with a river of scent flowing between them and a really neat video piece with individual dancers superimposed so that they appeared to be dancing together. Hugo Crosthwaite's Tijuana City scape was excellent. Vik Muniz had done a "Last Supper" out of chocolate syrup. (Chuck's comment: To Hell with turning water into wine. Turn Jesus into chocolate.)

Another, smaller, exhibit was drawings by Peter Takal. Approximately half of that show were newly acquired permanent pieces and the rest were on loan from the Arkansas Art Institute. It was the article about Takal on the NPR station at Wake Forest that tipped Chuck to interest in the Weatherspoon.

Some of the permanent pieces we saw and enjoyed were a chandelier by Randy Wray, a frieze by Tom Otterness, and Alison Saar's Compton Nocturne.
