Vija, Vija, Vija!
Franklin Sirmans, the newest of curators at LACMA, has curated a wonderful show; "Vija Celmins: Television and Disaster, 1964-1966"
Rarely does an exhibit show the development of an artists style, and career path.
This show does just that. These are paintings; amazing paintings. LACMA is doing just what a museum is supposed to do; educate and entertain the population of the city in exists within.
Not only does the public get to see wonderfully rendered paintings, but the stuffy, erudite art enthusiasts can marvel at the fact that the artist rendered the propellers of the plane stagnant, while the plane is obviously aloft. What is the artist trying to convey?
