It’s a mess with all these drawings scattered around the large paintings..chairs and benches were placed randomly to fill the empty looking gallery, the wall colors are off putting and overpower the work and the entrance sign looked like some half baked Disney/Circus theme that had nothing to do with the paintings in the show.

I did however LOVE LOVE the Catherine Opie show next door. Didn’t know much about her work but now I am a fan. That woman has some mad skills, LOVE HER WORK!!!
