glasgow art fair

on our way to the art fair, we sat on the steps of the GoMA (Glasgow Museum of Modern Art) waiting for luisa frangescangeli.

i didn't get any pictures of lilah in the exhibition... which is truly unfortunate, because she was a stellar appreciator of many of the works inside.  but i'll give you some examples:

(the painting: President Obama on the steps in Washington, behind him the banner "Yes We Can!" -- it's roughly 5' x 5') ... lilah's reaction: "Bama!! Bama!!" really, really loud.

(the photographs: four large [2.5' x 4'] B&W portraits of greyhound dogs from the neck up.  their ears all back, so they look like funny S shapes.) ...  lilah's reaction:  "HAHAHAHAHAHA!!"  until we get to another booth.  (dad tried to hush her, but i told him to stop.  it was the best reaction those photos will ever get.  they deserved to be adored.)

(the paintings: three heavily painted (and by heavy i mean thick, goupy, inch-off-the-canvas type oil paints) landscapes)  ...  lilah's reaction: to reach out and try to grab the "tweees".

we were inside the exhibition tent for 2 hours.  lilah did extremely well!  that was her first major exhibit, and she was told by more than one of the gallery representatives that she has "art in her soul".  

aw.
