"Go to an
Art-Gallery," they said. "Be less of a philistine," they said:
So, armed with
ample of time and a bit of trepidation, I went, to educate myself, avoiding the
major galleries, 'Start at the bottom,' well thought.
Among the various
oddities on display there, I saw, was this installation - Power drills hanging
upon a nylon clothesline, captioned - 'Machine Wash'.... It was so bad, it was
good; and while I do hope the artist has a day job, I fervently hope he does not
get ideas for 'Hand Wash'...
Hannibal Lecter
would be pleased, on second thoughts.
A hasty retreat
was in order, and I agree I returned the richer for experience: Must visit
better galleries...
