So I went to an opening tonight. Some bunch of conceptual artists.
I'm wandering around, trying to understand why an artist would do a show full of photos of other people's photos, when I look to my left and notice...Bob Vila! I'm standing in a gallery, admiring photos next to Bob Vila. Host of This Old House. Sears spokesperson. Robert J. Vila!
And not just any photos. A room full of Robert Mapplethorpe.
Just me, giant veiny phalluses, and Bob Fucking Vila.
It was one of those wonderful moments that New York City makes possible.
