art – To Aire is Divine

Paint Torch (with Bogart and oh, Claes Oldenburg)

So mama told me that there was this artist – a very important artist – who would be having a big opening of his newest project, right here in Center City.Â You can always count on me to attend such things as the potential for Airedmiration is HIGH. And oh yes, the worship started early.…

The Theory of Rel-Aire-Tivity

Einstein was a pretty smart, interesting guy.Â And he had a fine hairdo too. Seeing him today on this wall I thought I might explain my Theory of RelAireTivity to him.Â I’ll say this – he is a GOOD LISTENER Love, Bogart

Stop the Pigeon…

In walking around Old City tonight, mama and I stumbled onto this scene: We walk past here all of the time, and it’s usually an empty lot.Â The chair caught mama’s attention, but the pigeons caught mine. Ah, it’s art. You could have fooled me.Â I was pretty intent on getting at some of those…

Airedale Art Critic

So… we are supposed to head over to the waterfront to see some new interactive art-thingy.Â Apparently mama is still a bit confused, because we crossed over to the other side of the bridge from where it was happening.Â See those floaty things?Â I sure do. They have caught my attention and mesmerized me even…

First Friday Fun

After a long weeks’ work for mama, and a long weeks’ thinking for me, we set off in search of some artsy fun on First Friday in Filadelphia (see, told you I’ve been thinking – I’ve been wanting to use that alliteration for some time now). Mama looked at the art that other humans made,…

Outdoor Aire-t

You all know what an aficionado I am of outdoor art… I see it and I have to investigate.Â This pink concrete chair is just outside the building we live in, I see it all the time, but it has only recently become Pepto Bismol pink.Â I must check this out. Hm.Â What do I…

The 24 Hour Church of Elvis

Behold… THE 24 HOUR CHURCH OF ELVIS It’s another one of those “only in Portland” kind of things.Â It is an art installation, and well, it defies easy explanation.Â Now mama and dad got married by Elvis in Las Vegas, so maybe if I ask really nicely, the spirit of Elvis will come forth and…

First Thursday

First Thursday here in the Pearl District is ART time – all of the local galleries have their openings, and lots of people forget how to properly park or cross the street.Â And don’t get me started on their behavior while I’m in an intersection… I even saw some of the trendy art horde messing…

Aire-t

Oh, the agony of choice. I’d like a Junior Bacon Cheeseburger please – hold the nasty ketchup. I will wait patiently – sort of – until the Jack in the Box worker notices my adorable face sticking out of the window.Â Then I shall unleash the mighty bark so they understand exactly HOW HUNGRY I…
