I spaced on this completely. But I will, of course, pay for my ticket.

What a fantastic swanking! I intend to go back and revisit the exhibition again during its run, but I don't think that it'll be the same without the presence of all the hip LoTers.

Some highlights for me:
- Destino. Disney meets Dali. And it works.
- All of the drawings from the unrealized Marx Brothers project. "Groucho Shiva" - flaming giraffes.
- The letters between Dali and Bunuel. Hysterical!

Thanks again to NA for making us aware of this and hooking us up with tix!

My faves were as follows:

-Destino
-That one with like the skeleton dudes on bicycles and the piano filled with water
- The elderly gentleman on the park bench browsing a playboy

Why didn't I go?

Campire at Night Lit By Flaming Giraffes was my fave Dali piece at the exhibit.

I expected to see some great artwork on his collaboration with Disney on Destino ... but when I rounded the corner and saw DESTINO playing in front of my eyes, it was a surrealistic sensation worthy of everything Dali may have ever tried to convey. Definitely the highlight of the museum portion of the day.

Sigh, even with all the wonderful fun had there with swankers - and not to diminish it in any way - it was (as €uroMeinke so aptly put it) but an appetizer to the unexpected and fantabulous musical evening experience that was the Koop Koncert at the Barker Block Loft Wine Tasting Rooftop Swankland Extravaganza.

All in all though, a fun-filled day of art and music with friends, one I will never forget. That it was merely part of a four day festival of art, music, friends, nature and hedonism just boggles my mind.

Um. time to un-stickify this.

€uroMeinke · 11-29-2007, 08:29 PM

Yeah - I can do that

Not Afraid · 11-29-2007, 08:31 PM

LOL! I was wondering why I couldn't figure it out. You already did it.

Yes, folks, we DO live in the same house.

Gemini Cricket · 11-29-2007, 08:32 PM

Wait, is this for next November 10th?

Not Afraid · 11-29-2007, 08:33 PM

No, but I'd sure like to see it again before it closes.
