I can't believe I missed this show!! Ironically, one of the pieces in the exhibit (pictured above) illustrates exactly how I feel about missing it... Did you see it? Did you love it?!

Thanks for the links -- I love the part where Saltz says, "I find it unimaginable that sculpture could look the way it does today without his incredibly weird experiments."
