Enrique Martinez Celaya last came to the Sheldon in 2003, and I got to see him speak then. He’s a great speaker, and I highly recommend going to see him and Dan Siedell talk tomorrow at the Sheldon.
I have a lot to say about his lecture, I took many pages of notes, but I just can’t write about it tonight. A lot of what he said really struck home, and reminded me of my entry a few days ago. He was critical of today’s art world (especially Damian Hirst) and art schools.
I really wanted to buy his book in the gift shop, but it was $60- which I may be able to afford come Thursday, but it’s going to be yet another tight month for me. What else is new?
