Trippin'
A couple weeks ago mommy-guilt led me to completely lose my mind and agree to accompany Bugman and his classmates on a field trip to a small art museum featuring 'contemporary Native American art'. I love my boy, but that five minute bus-ride reminded me (LOUDLY!) why I only have one kid. But all in all I have to say the boys in my group were pretty well behaved, but the exhibit itself was kinda lame (in my humble opinion). The kids had already toured the website and oddly enough our guide chose to feature the exact same pieces on the tour that the kids had previously viewed on the website...which basically led to several bored children....and everybody knows how fun bored children are!
I have to admit that contemporary art really isn't my thing, but there were a couple of decent pieces. Like this one...
I don't know what the artist intended, I'm sure if I overthought it I could come up with something pretentious, but this one looks like a gravestone to me and I love cemeteries.
Not sure what the artist named this one, but I call it 'Lame'. There were a lot of pieces like this...a little bit of technology slapped on something traditional.
