Art can be weird
Art can be weird
Years ago I dated an art teacher and she took me to the sixth form exhibition. One painting I recall distinctly was of a man lying beneath a tree pleasuring himself and I still laugh every time I think about it.
30 years ago in Vienna I saw a painting of a toothbrush which bristles were a hedgehog. I still chuckle about that on weekly basis :)
Hahaha
I opened a box of old art yesterday and found a watercolor painting that I made about 20 years ago. I think I was just starting with watercolors at the time so maybe it’s a bit amateurish but I still like it.
I still can't get over the ones I saw when I was in Oz and me and a mate still laugh about how inept we were during one encounter.
This was nearly 30 years ago.
I saw an almost perfectly spherical dog a few years ago and I still think about it
That looks great and I wish I could see it.
I think MOMA had a large Fluxus exhibition years ago and I absolutely loved it. I still think about works I saw there. Admittedly I like jokey and meta art.
Saw this a couple of years ago and I still think of it every so often.
The creators of "Cambodian Rock Band" were inspired by real-life Khmer Rouge survivors for the off-Broadway play.
www.broadway.comThis painting was inspired by a random picture I took on a trip to Montana a couple years ago. It's still one of my favorites.
When I first saw this piece of art three years ago it caused a door deep inside of me to click open. I connected so deeply I still think about it every day.
Every time it's raining when I walk into work, I think about a silly thing one of my students said years ago and it still makes me chuckle to this day. She said, "Umbrellas are humbling.”
a friend and I used this as a motto when we were undergraduates—that was 20+ years ago and I still think of Rachel every time I read it.
A student emailed me this three years ago on the last day of school and I still think about it and laugh probably once a month.
I read Mexican Gothic almost 3 years ago now and I still think about it almost daily. It's a work of art. Spooky-ass art.
I dated a Hungarian 25+ years ago and I still think fondly of this soup and cucumber salad every summer.
Dump of my boy Crogz. A bugbear oc I played in a D&D game a couple years ago and I still think about on a daily basis.
Rachel Getting Married is a great movie. I saw it years ago and I still think about it often. She gives an incredible performance.
I saw one once here in Chicago years ago that said “there’s a baby up in this bitch” and I still think of that every time I see a baby on board sign/sticker.
I saw one video of a man being shot in the head 7 years ago. It was enough for a lifetime. I can still hear the gunshot and pleading.
as someone who looks at a ton of atrocity videos for my work: you do NOT need to be looking at that stuff unless you have a specific genuine purpose for doing so
you are NOT helping anybody by traumatizing yourself
i saw the quiet earth many many years ago when i rented it on a whim from a video store & i still think about it — i thought of almost every day in ‘20
i went to a museum and saw a painting from 1300 years ago of me now screaming in horror in a bathroom
I saw Yi Yi 15 years ago and I still think about it all the time.
Edward Yang's YI YI (2000) is monumental: a cinematic expression of urban alienation on par with Hopper's body of work in its haunting, indelible beauty, following a Taiwanese family adrift, as we perhaps all are, in a sea of humanity whose currents remain cyclical yet unpredictable, unfathomable.
