Warhol's Polaroids

from ABCnews article linked below

Back in the Fall 2009/Winter 2010, the Spencer Art Museum at Kansas University had a special exhibition featuring some of Andy Warhol's Polaroids of famous people.  This was part of a bigger national tour of the photos.  I went to the event (I was at least partially there, although many objects and buildings were melting all around me) and really enjoyed it.  Feb 22 is the day he died.  I saw ABCNews did an article on his photos to mark the anniversary of his death, and it reminded me of the exhibit I (kind of) veiwed.

Dan Perjovschi at KU's Spencer Museum of Art- All Art was Once Contemporary

Dan Perjovschi is the new current artist in residance at KU and currently has an installation at the Spencer Art Musuem.  It consists of black marker on white walls and takes up the whole center hall of the museum.  If you need a good laugh, as well as an interesting take on world affairs, go check this out.  An example of my favorite "writing on the wall" for this install- G8, G20, G-Spot.  Below are some links . . .
