Only a young person could wish for his too solid flesh to melt. Should he live longer, it will.

Reminds me of Roman republican portrait busts.
Real life invades perfect marble.

That, Regina, is a brilliant comment and I intend to quote it a lot.

Another Bouncing Ball

This blog continues Art To Go, which I wrote as the art critic for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, beginning at the end of 2007 and continuing through March 15, 2009. ABB is an exploration of art in Seattle that extends outward, both geographically and by topic, touching on art, politics, literature, dance and whatever it is that the cat drags in. Its title comes from a poem by Delmore Schwartz, The Ballad of the Children of the Czar, specifically, “The ground on which the ball bounces/ Is another bouncing ball.”
