The Berggruen Klee Collection, 1984

Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY Medium: Watercolor, brush, and ink on paper mounted on cardboard
Art in its execution and direction is dependent on the time in which it lives, and artists are creatures of their epoch. The highest art will be that which in its conscious content presents the thousandfold problems of the day, the art which has been visibly shattered by the explosions of last week… The best and most extraordinary artists will be those who every hour snatch the tatters of their bodies out of the frenzied cataract of life, who, with bleeding hands and hearts, hold fast to the intelligence of their time.

Though his art was gruesome (and not very vegan), neither was his survival from a bloody massacre at the Jewish ghetto in Poland that he was forced to live in. Jonasz survived a mass shooting of his fellow neighbors and friends and passed out for many hours under their dead bodies. He fled to Hungary and has done many art pieces reflecting the pain and horror he had to endure.
I saw Weihong Liu’s art at the Washington Square Outdoor Art Exhibit and now I want to own all her prints. Unfortunately, she has no website and her work is not sold online. C'est la vie.
Art piece at a BU exhibit that I snuck into (from the back service door) to snap pics, after it was clear the front doors were closed during posted open availability times. The event had images of sculptures of animals made of cardboard. When other folks saw me in there they started banging on the door to come in and see the art…so naturally-come in, come in….they thought I worked there. A staff bespectacled member was a tad nonplussed to come from the back and see all these people milling about enjoying the art.
Never promise accessibility and then backpeddal to a relentless image raider!
This was part of a 2011 exhibit at a campus gallery around BU.
I walked past there and saw a sign promoting the show, but the side doors were locked. I shimmied my way in the back and entered through a service door the students and staff use and skulked into the main display area where I saw all these art pieces around, including a series assignment of cardboard animals many students made.
While I was snapping pics like crazy, I started hearing knocking on the side door, and there was like a dozen people at the side door wondering why they couldn’t enter the gallery. So, naturally, I let them all in and left the door unlocked for more folks to come in. Some folks thought I worked there.
Later on, I could spot a staffer come by from an area they were busy constructing in the back, and saw all these people milling about the main area; they just shook their head in stunned amazement and padded off quickly to do something.
Something that went under my radar when I ran/modded a celebrity art board on Reddit (dedicated to art made by celebrities-including Joni Mitchell, Miles Davis, Peter Falk, Miley Cyrus, Johnny Depp, Prince Charles, Grace Zabriskie, a few serial killers, and Jim Roche who played a TV Evangelist in Silence of the Lambs)-yeah, it was quite a lonely subreddit.
