I read about what they did to Irving Norman,
who is one of my favorite artists.

His exhibit in Sacramento was one of the
most mesmerizing, amazing experiences I've
ever had... and I've been to some very
great exhibits, including the incredible one
Dominique de Menil and her staff put on in a
barnlike structure in the parking lot of Rice University,,
called Secret Affinities... showcasing surreal art and sculpture
in a way I've never seen before or since... pure
genius.
