A few
years ago I bought a little model of the Unabomber's cabin
from a series that contained buildings like the Texas Book Depository and Ford's Theater. They were made by Constantin and Laurene Leon Boym. I bought it because it was a difficult time in
my life and I wanted to be able hold disaster in the palm of my hand. I thought
it would make things more manageable.
Imagine my surprise when I walked into
the Museum of Art and Design to
see NYC Makers, the MAD Biennial saw some of the little buildings on display.
Including an alternate series: Eighteen Buildings (from the Missing Monuments
Series) I guess the moral of the story is that art conquers all. Ars Vincit omnia!
