During the closing days of the Mike Kelley exhibition at PS1 I was taking a photo of one of Kelley’s Kandor sculptures, while sneakily Taezoo Park was snapping a photo of me snapping a photo; this is the photo I took at that moment:<\/p>\n

Aside:<\/strong> It’s amazing how reserved and repressed the art world public is. This particular sculpture you had to ascend a wooden staircase to see it level, up-close. There were two assistants in the room but they weren’t vocalizing the ability to walk up the stairs; all you had to do was take off your shoes. I watched the room for a handful of minutes and people entered, looked, pointed, and left. No one bothered to investigate, to explore. I recognized the assistants, waited another minute, then went up to them and bluntly asked, “What do I need to do to go up the stairs?” They informed me, and there I went. Next thing you know people are lining up to make the climb (it was one person at a time). Go figure, silly art world.<\/p>\n During the closing days of the Mike Kelley exhibition at PS1 I was taking a photo of one of Kelley’s Kandor sculptures, while sneakily Taezoo Park was snapping a photo of me snapping a photo; this is the photo I took at that moment: Aside: It’s amazing how reserved and repressed the art world public […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[877,876],"series":[],"class_list":["post-10823","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-arts","tag-ps1","tag-superman"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1780543_822431591107696_570075600_o.jpg?fit=2000%2C1333&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6OfVu-2Oz","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10823","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10823"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10823\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10827,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10823\/revisions\/10827"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10824"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10823"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10823"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10823"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=10823"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/div><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
