@TMPHopkins1 @Suzanne_Heath Can there be an episode of when objects accidentally damage you? Like when a giant bronze falls on you during deinstall? 😬

As you honor my father today, please remember and honor my mother, as well.

She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded two months after Daddy was assassinated.

On April 9th, 1917, just over 100 years ago, Marcel Duchamp achieved what was perhaps the most brilliant and absurd art event of the 20th century. https://t.co/KOtZmYLto0

“I was walking from there and I thought I just saw someone standing there with a camera in their hands." - Visitor to #GillianWearing's monument to Diane Arbus. The sculpture stands on the pavement without a pedestal, almost blending in with the foot traffic of @CentralParkNYC.

Just saw the one shooting star/meteor pass by my face on the way home. Lasted about 3 seconds then vanished into pieces. Surreal. Goodmorning Orlando.

Wanted to recognize @ChromaZoneFest & @4castpublicart for focusing on… “#womxn, #nonbinary and #BIPOC artists and the topics most pressing in this moment for muralism.”

Ever wonder how a sculpture was made? If you closely examine the details, you can find clues to how the work was crafted. Joel Shapiro's "Untitled" was first created out of wood and then cast in bronze, but you can still see details of the wood grain upon closer inspection.
