Update about blogCa

I-40 picked up the old Rte. 66 somewhere along the way, maybe Little Rock, maybe Oklahoma City. But it is the 100th anniversary of Rte 66 so I enjoyed thinking about my parents driving on part Of it in. St. Louis at least. Here we continued from Santa Rosita to Gallup NM, then left both highways to go north to CO.

The First Supper (second chapter)

 A continuation from yesterday's post, where a comment brought to my attention that I didn't know what the statues were made of.

So I looked at the site again and found this:


Detail of “The First Supper (Galaxy Black)” (2023), bronze, black patina, and gold leaf, 217.3 x 928.6 x 267.9 centimeters. Installation view of ‘Entangled Pasts, 1768-now. Art, Colonialism and Change’ at the Royal Academy of Arts, London. All photos by Jonty Wilde, courtesy of the artist, Perrotin, and Glenstone Museum, Potomac, Maryland.


As detailed in the article I quoted yesterday:

Thanks for commenting! I tried moderating, thinking that would be a quicker way to check on comments, but actually it takes more time. So go ahead and talk amongst yourselves, and I'll check in when I can!!
