Yesterday the most amazing thing happened. I went to the Chelsea Museum of Art and while waiting for an appointment with the Director I perused the art books in the lobby for a half hour. A veil lifted from my eyes and I actually started to understand (not exactly appreciate) what the artists were trying to do. Unfortunately they are obssessed with sex and death and violence.
