I was at the Milwaukee Art Museum yesterday to view the Frank Lloyd Wright exhibit (which was excellent) and I had the once-in-a-lifetime chance to have my picture taken next to this art piece.Is it? Art? Jury's out and I ain't opening up that can o' worms. But I'm directing a reading of Yasmina's Reza's Tony-award winning play, "Art", this August at Summerstage Delafield (in Delafield, WI). Outdoor theater. BYOB (I think they sell beer there as well).
We all have opinions on "what constitutess art?". What's aesthetic? What's pleasing to our eye. A classic 1960 Ford Thunderbird. A custom-made long bow. A manicured lawn or lush, flower garden. A jar of homemade jelly (or homemade Wisconsin maple syrup - which you can buy for $12 per 12 ounce bottle). A crucifix in a jar of urine...you know.
"Art" humorously discusses this very subject. Come out to Delafield this August. Check out tickets at Summerstage Delafield. It's not too early to book your tickets. Limited lawn chair seating, you know. ;)
