    an exhibition of ron mueck's work will be at the modern art museum of fort worth toward the end of june. i'm a member of the modern (thank's to my cousin who works there) and i got a thing in the mail about it. it shows a picture of the big man. they already have one of mueck's sculpture - of a seated old woman - on permanent display at the modern; it's one of my favorites. i'm psyched about the show.

    Those are incredibly wild. He's not the same guy that did the man in the armchair with a beer, is he? I think that's another hyperrealistic sculptor, maybe. His work is so... disturbing! Especially those frightening babies.

    How is it that Fort Worth has an art museum, and Olympia Washington does not?

    it's probably some other hyperrealist dude, but i don't know. all i know is that every time i go to "the modern", as we call it, there is this woman, and she looks so much like one of my relatives i just have to smile.

    fort worth has several museums - a whole district of 'em. one day somebody decided our town was going to be about "cowboys and culture". it's this whole competition thing with dallas.

    droopy, did you make a fake old woman?


By Dr Pepper on Thursday, June 7, 2007 - 02:00 am:

    Hey droopy, how come this big man do not have balls? and this girl legs so long?


By Dr Pepper on Thursday, June 7, 2007 - 02:02 am:

    Ha Ha Ha Ha LMAO!

    saw the ron mueck exhibit this afternoon. the a big man does, in fact, have balls. as big as your head. a docent had follow me around to make sure i didn't
    grab them.

    after the museum closed, i hung out with my cousin (the one who works there) and then saw a japanese anime film called "paprika" at the museum's movie theater.

    I am not good with talent on art. My daughter does creative drawing and it is so amazing. There is no way I can do that.

    Kazu and I saw Paprika on saturday too.

    Wasn't on par with Miyazaki's films, but enjoyable and very creative and original. I also liked the music.

    I didn't really buy the relationship between Tokita and Chiba, but otherwise liked the characters.
