On friday night I went to the MFA open studios. It was an interesting experience because it was just so overwhelming. there were so many studios and not enough cookies. However, there was some art that stuck in my head. These studios were very different from gallery openings or art fairs because of the space and how many people there were. I felt myself getting claustrophobic as the night went on. I like the fact that each space was a space where you didn't have to completely carefully watch where you stepped. It was raw and all over the place; sound from other people's studios flooded into other cubicles.
This cubicle was probably the most interesting in the Columbus building. the entrance was blocked off by chicken wire therefore you had to climb up a ladder. However, we were at the wrong place at the wrong time because there was booze in there so everyone in there automatically got busted. even though that was part of the art and experience school authority felt it necessary to shut it down. honestly I'm not sure where i stand on this issue because I am constantly reminded of how this school says that they welcome freedom of what kind of art you make and how there are no boundaries...but as long as you follow the rules.
but then again, i was looking around for the artist, and gee, he was nowhere to be found. how convenient.
i just wanted to climb a wall.
hey look! we can be art buyers too!
just dont eat those cupcakes.
this was neat.
and then there were these guys...
