We went up to see the Carnegie International exhibition up in Pittsburgh today. Some of it is really spectacular, but most of it justifies every joke ever made about modern art. Even worse was the collection guide. I’m used to museum literature that tells you about the artist’s intent, but this was more like an instruction of how precisely one should react to each individual piece. (Beyond the obvious, “What the hell?”) Annoying.
Still, it’s nice to be a culture vulture sometimes. And, who knew there was a comic store right around the corner from the Carnegie? Better still, I finally managed to track down all three issues of Street Angel, which makes me the very last comics blogger in the world to read them. With that feather in my cap, I shall now move on to my next challenge: being the very last comics blogger in the world to read Scott Pilgrim.
