Opted out of of Black Friday to see some art with Dominic. We went over to LIC and checked the shows at PS1. There was a contemporary sculpture show that had some good word by some folks associated with Bard: Marc Swanson, Robert de Saint Phalle, and Penelope Umbrico. Upstairs was the Big 1969 show where we ran into my friends Renny and Judy. I found some inspiration in the documents of Scott Burton’s Streetworks, but the show as a whole seemed pretty subdued for being a representation of such a raucous time.
After a lunch at the diner during which we disagreed about the merits of the Monte Christo sandwich, we went off to the Sculpture Center to check out Mike Smith’s excellent Burning Man pisstake.
I made it home, heated and eated a holiday left-over pile, and have executed phase two of my little bit of anti-Black Friday plans: I made a bit bit of art and left it out on the street. Little anonymous gift there for somebody. makes me feel a little odd, but hopefully someone will like it.
